Op. 38. Par ELGAR EDWARD. This is the best of me, wrote Edward Elgar after the final measure of his Dream of Gerontius. Premiered in 1900, in Great Britain the work has long been a standard work in the repertoire of large oratorio choirs. Elgar?s moving, poetic setting of the eponymous poem by Cardinal John Henry Newman is about a dying man and his journey beyond death to God. Before the eyes of the listeners, a musical image of the soul is created which flies past mocking demons to God with its protecting angel at its side, is allowed to look at him briefly, then faces the purgatorial fire of salvation confident and comforted. The work is a real rarity in the history of oratorio, and for large choirs it is a thrilling alternative to the established repertoire of Requiem settings. Its popularity is thanks to the suggestive, often sensuous power of the music, the great choral scenes of the demons and the Angel, and the three impressive solo parts. All previous editions were reprints based on the historic first printed materials, which are inconsistent. By contrast, Carus has produced a modern, newly-engraved edition, compatible in all sections, which takes all the sources into consideration and evaluates the autograph manuscript in detail. For this edition the complete orchestral material is available on sale, and the vocal score and full score contain both English and German singing texts. The full score is also available digitally. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Répertoire / Solistes, Ch?ur SATB et Orchestre

Edward Fairlie's Storm and Urge is a significant work for wind band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German 'Sturm und Drang,? a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme, we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance, and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery, this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble. / Ensemble A Vent Partition

Edward Elgar's Salut d'amour is one of those pieces by the British composer that has a particularly haunting melody. The short work also had a special significance for the composer. Caroline Alice Roberts had been having piano lessons with Elgar since 1886. Their teacher-pupil relationship soon blossomed into love and they became engaged in 1888. It was in this year that Elgar composed 'Salut d'amour? for his bride, initially with the German title 'Liebesgruß?. They got married in 1889 and the work was published at the same time. We are now publishing this moderately difficult, immortal classic in the original versions for Violin and Piano, Violoncello and Piano (HN 1189) and Piano solo (HN 1190). / Violon Et Piano

Christmas fiddlers can draw on a rich and varied repertoire. This collection spans seven centuries, from the boisterous medieval Song of the Ass to contemporary tunes like Sleigh ride, taking in such traditional carols as Away in a manger and O little town of Bethlehem along the way. There is music in The Christmas Fiddler from England, Wales, France, Germany and North America.Of course Christmas time is not only a religious festival. Much of the music here - the Welsh carol Deck the hall, the 'fireside' movement from The Four Seaons, the modern classic Chestnuts roasting on an open fire - is as much a celebration of the ancient secular festival of the Winter Solstice.The arrangements in this collection can be performed as solos or duets, or by larger ensembles. The keyboard accompaniments are there for a multitude of purposes, from concert performances to playing at home- and the violin accompaniments will be invaluable for those Christmas busking sessions.The full range of traditional fiddle repertoire is now at your fingertips! Using these generous collections, you can create your own ceilidh, barn dance, jazz club, Sarajevo street-café or Gypsy gathering. Some of this music is familiar, some more exotic, but all of it is absolutely authentic, faithfully arranged and, above all, hugely enjoyable. Each title in the series is available in two formats: the violin edition (with an optional easy violin part and guitar chord)- or the complete edition, which also includes both keyboard and violin accompaniments. Either format is hugely flexible, which means the music can be played as solos, duets or trios as well as with larger ensembles. Edward Huws Jones has travelled extensively researching fiddle-playing traditions. In each book he explains the background of the particular musical style, giving his own suggestions for a lively performance. And to help recreate the spirit of the music, every book in the series is beautifully illustrated. / Violon Et Guitare

Création 04/11/2018 - Cologne (Allemagne), Philharmonie - Anaïs Gaudemard (harpe) Commanditaire Fondation Calouste Gulbenkian et Philharmonie de Paris Dédicace à Anaïs Gaudemard Notice Nighthawks est une oeuvre pour harpe solo. Lorsqu' Anaïs Gaudemard [1] m'a demandé d'écrire cette oeuvre, elle souhaitait l'intégrer à un programme sur le thème des oiseaux. J'ai immédiatement pensé à l'oeuvre Nighthawks (1942) - ou Oiseaux de nuit - du peintre réaliste américain Edward Hopper (1882-1967). Inspirée par cette oeuvre, j'ai conçu la pièce d'un seul tenant comme un voyage au coeur de ce tableau. Hopper y projette un instantané de la vie quotidienne américaine. La scène se déroule à une heure avancée de la nuit et plusieurs atmosphères s'en dégagent. En effet, l'oeil est à la fois attiré par cette rue sombre, déserte, et immaculée d'un centre-ville américain ; intrigué par la situation figée des quatre personnages à l'intérieur d'un diner aux couleurs vives ; et hypnotisé par l'éclat de l'immense vitrine du bar. Contrastante avec l'obscurité de la rue, la lumière de cette vitre éclairée au néon est saisissante. Elle sépare ainsi les deux ambiances du tableau. La vue du spectateur à travers elle se fait de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur du bar. L'absence de porte de sortie donne l'impression que les personnages sont isolés et leur solitude est encore renforcée par cette vitre qui entoure la scène éclairée - comme s'ils étaient sous cloche. A l'intérieur du diner, un homme vu de dos mange ; un couple se tient côte à côte (l'homme fume ; la femme est vêtue de rouge) ; un serveur s'affaire. Nous ne savons rien d'eux. Que font-ils à une heure si tardive ? Où se trouve la sortie ? De quoi discutent-ils ? Se connaissent-ils ? J'ai voulu concevoir musicalement cette scène du point de vue du spectateur, comme si nous étions happés, aspirés à l'intérieur même du tableau. L'introduction - Mystérieux, sombre - fait entendre les douze coups de minuit et nous plonge dans l'obscurité de cette rue typiquement américaine. De cette atmosphère nocturne naît un chant étrange - presque ouaté avec les sons xylophoniques - comme si nous ne pouvions l'entendre distinctement à travers la vitre lumineuse qui sépare la rue et le bar. Happés par cette lumière vive, nous passons à travers la vitrine et rentrons progressivement à l'intérieur du diner au moyen d'une boucle hypnotique répétée inlassablement, comme si nous rentrions dans un état de transe - Hypnotique. C'est la tension sous-jacente de cette situation figée des personnages que j'ai voulu représenter dans le passage central - Rythmique et pulsé. Puis, nous sortons de cette sensation d'hypnose en repassant à travers la vitre du bar et retrouvons l'atmosphère nocturne de cette rue déserte et immaculée - Hypnotique - Mystérieux. Camille Pepin [1] Créatrice et dédicataire de la pièce Presse Que voici une oeuvre tout simplement belle ! Camille Pépin, née en 1990, a eu un parcours marqué par la danse et la composition. Mais on découvre ici tout simplement une artiste, qui nous invite à la contemplation d'une oeuvre du peintre Edward Hopper. Ayant travaillé la composition et l'orchestration aussi bien avec Thierry Perrine qu'avec Thierry Escaich, Guillaume Connesson et Marc- André Dalbavie, elle s'est forgé un langage original qui lui permet ici de nous envouter à la fois par sa musique et par la contemplation du tableau. On pourra en juger par l'interprétation qui est faite de cette pièce sur YouTube qu'on écoutera ainsi en regardant le tableau. Bien sûr, on peut aussi écouter l'oeuvre telle quelle : elle se suffit. Mais avec le tableau... Daniel Blackstone L'Education Musicale n°128 (janv-fév 2020)
