While the
song text remains in
Italian, loving
translations of these
songs have been created
by Giovanna Jackson to
aid in a singers
interpretation.Three
songs are included in
this second set: Il mio
bel foco (Marcello); Se
tu m'ami, se sospiri
(Pergolesi); Come raggio
di sol (Caldara). Each
song has been arranged by
Albert C. Vinci and
edited by Mary Sue Hyatt
to be performed with a
string quartet or string
orchestra. Both the
string quartet and string
orchestra versions are
available from the
publisher.
These products
are currently being
prepared by a new
publisher. While many
items are ready and will
ship on time, some others
may see delays of several
months.

It was the
practice of Khoomii
(throat singing) -
following several
workshops with Michael
Ormiston - that first
attracted me to Tuvan
music. Composing this
Songbook, the first in a
series commissioned by
the Ligeti Quartet, I
took the chance to
reflect on compositional
questions around
transcription and
arrangement of existing
music, and frequently
found myself asking:
where is the boundary
between the source
material and the new
substance? Of course the
relationship varies from
piece to piece, and
moment to moment:
sometimes we seem to
glimpse the pure source,
but most of the time
there are differing
degrees of distance,
working towards or away
from it. This new version
for string orchestra
corresponds closely to
the original quartet
version, with an
additional part for
double basses.The
traditional Tuvan songs
that I have transcribed
and recomposed are all
known to me from the Ay
Kherel CD The Music of
Tuva: Throat Singing and
Instruments from Central
Asia (2004, Arc Music).
According to the notes
from that CD, this is
what the songs are
about:1. Dyngylday: If
you have come on a horse
in blue, it doesn't mean
that you are the best. My
heart tells me something
else: my sweetheart
doesn't have such a
beautiful horse, but he
is my darling.An
alternative
interpretation from Alash
Ensemble
(alashensemble.com): The
word dyngylday is a
nonsense term with no
translation. The song
makes good-humored fun of
somebody for being a
good-for-nothing.2. Eki
Attar (The Best Steeds):
The horse is the basis of
our life. It is a magic
creature. Even its step
is full of music and
rhythm. You may not be a
horse rider, but when you
hear this song you will
always remember horses.3.
Kuda Yry: This wedding
song glorifies the
strength of the groom and
the beauty of his
Horse.4. Ezir-Kara
('Black Eagle'): This was
the name of a horse, who
became a legend through
his remarkable strength
and speed.It is not just
overtones that abound
here: there are galloping
rhythms aplenty, and
though I am no horse
rider I tried to keep the
horses galloping in my
imagination while
composing these
pieces.Christian Mason

Kherel and Alash
Ensemble)

Tiina
Myllärinen's (b. 1979)
(Bad) Dreams come true
for strings quartet
(2022) was composed when
war broke out in Europe.
The composer tells: The
shock, and the daily news
barrage of battles could
not help making an
impression on my work and
its material. I wondered
what dreams and plans
people had in Ukraine
before the war, and how
everything became a
nightmare in a single
night. Terror, fear and
tension found their way
into the work, along with
memories of life in the
past and dreams of a
different future. The
work is dedicated to the
people of Ukraine; to the
dreams that will
hopefully soon come
true.
This product
includes the full score
and a set of
parts.
Tiina
Myllärinen’s
music has been described
as cheerfully
inquisitive, vigorous and
original. Her works
include Squarcio for
ensemble, the orchestral
what? (2010) and Traces
(2013, commissioned by
the Pro Musica Foundation
and premiered at the
Helsinki Music Centre on
5 June 2014) and Three
Songs for voice, guitar
and cello (2007).
