Par BALAZS ARPAD. Árpád Balázs (*1937) composed the first version of the work between 1994 and 1996 for tárogató and concert band. Since this traditional Hungarian instrument is rarely found in ensembles abroad, a soprano saxophone can serve as an alternative solo instrument. The composer uses melodies from the early 18th century, from the age of Rákóczi's war of independence. An ambitious framework is given to the work by the reminiscing, solemnly flowing brass chorus, which is built of the motives of the folk song Oh, Rákóczi, Bercsényi (Hej, Rákóczi, Bercsényi). As a contrast serves then Panna Czinka's ancient ''violin lament''. Following this, in a pierced-work-like fashion, the folk song The dew of green forest (Zöld erdo harmatát) comes in, then, as the culmination of the work, the well-known, wild Kuruc dance of Csínom Palkó appears. In conclusion, Kuruc Pictures is a tastefully constructed, finely harmonised and orchestrated orchestral tableau. / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Répertoire / Concert Band et Saxophone Soprano

Solemnitas. This short but solemn overture was written on the occasion of the 110th jubilee of Harmonie Hautcharage, Luxembourg. It is an homage to Jean-Paul Frisch and his son Gérard (the present conductor), who each have been conducting the ensemble for many years. Under their leadership, the band has developed and improved remarkably. The very first musical theme, presented during the introduction of this little overture, is based on the letters hidden in the names Jean-Paul and Gérard Frisch (in which h is considered b ? as it is in German), thus aiming the spotlight on both key figures in the history of Harmonie Hautcharage. After the rather stately intro, the allegro is more joyful and lighthearted, thus depicting the optimism of the many young players of the band. The end is exciting and energetic: it radiates positivity and belief in the future.

Par BALAZS ARPAD. With its energetic impetus and imposing instrumentation, Concertino is certainly outstanding in the oeuvre of Árpád Balázs. Among his compositions for concert band, it is by far the most engaging and exacting work. Passing away and a will to live are simultaneously present in Concertino, which Árpád Balázs composed in memory of his beloved father. Its structure brings Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies to mind: its solemn opening, which returns at the end,is followed by a slow and a fast movement. The funereal music of the slow movement evolves from a motif of Bach's St. Matthew Passion with enormous intensification equal to the lament in Grieg's Peer Gynt. It is difficult to imagine a dramatic incandescence with a higher degree of heat. The heartbeat-imitating timpani features significantly at the beginning and the end of the funereal music. The fast movement represents resolution, resignation and regainedgaiety. This part, pulsating like a waltz and echoing the modulation technique of Richard Strauss, is followed by the solemn return of the opening chords.Whether playing or listenting to this tremendously soul-stirring music, you will all encounter a dramatic experience./ Répertoire / Concert Band

Little Piano Pieces - Kleine Klavierstücke - Petites pièces pour piano. Par OR...(+)
Little Piano Pieces - Kleine Klavierstücke - Petites pièces pour piano. Par ORBÁN GYÖRGY. György Orbán (born 1947) is among the most frequently performed contemporary Hungarian composers. His style incorporates a characteristic mix of classical, modern, cinematic, and jazz elements. In addition, he claims he ''loves splashing about in tonality,'' which makes his works accessible to the wider public. Owing to his humor and imagination, he finds an easy path to children, as demonstrated by the popularity of his piano works specifically intended for beginners. He composed close to 70 short children's pieces for Ágnes Lakos's four-volume Friendly Piano Tutor (EMBZ14749-14756), later published separately as Enchanted Forest (EMBZ14742). The New Bell includes a further 19 piano pieces for beginners - among others, we encounter a baby elephant now and again (perhaps paying a visit from Debussy's Children's Corner?) and we hear the awful clamor of a most outgoing granny's alarm clock as well as the solemn tolling of a new church-bell. The pieces are arranged in order of difficulty and even include a few items for three hands, which may be played by a pupil with the teacher or another student. / Niveau : Facile à Intermédiaire / Pédagogie / Répertoire / Piano

Par CABANILLES JUAN BAUTISTA. Joan Cabanilles was cathedral organist in Valencia and the towering figure in Spanish organ music of the late 17th century. His brilliant and diverse musical language, rooted in the traditional sounds of Spain, has not managed to reach a large audience outside the Iberian peninsula, although he is often called 'a musician of European stature”.
The aim of this three-volume Urtext edition is to grant access to his most appealing works. To this end, all available sources in the libraries of Astorga, Barcelona, San Lorenzo de el Escoreal, Felanitx/Mallorca, Jaca and Montserrat have been examined and newly evaluated.
If Cabanilles's oeuvre consists primarily of tientos, organ hymns and versets, the third and final volume contains three versos, three pasacalles, two galliards, two toccatas and such special forms as Paseos de tercer tono, Diferencias de Folías and a Jácara.
„This is an excellent resource for organists interested in exploring this satisfying repertoire.'

These arrangements for the recorder will provide the player with a new and unique challenge for capturing the calm, almost simple solemnity of these pieces. The resulting sound experience will prove quite remarkable. Sylvia C. Rosin has managed to maintain the original musical structure in her arrangements by assigning the melody line, the right hand part in the original, to the recorder. According to the individual requirements of the player the arrangements can be played on the soprano or tenor and even the treble recorder./ Répertoire / Flûte à Bec (T/S/A) et Piano

Funeral Music On Themes From Euryanthe-Wagner composed Trauersinfonie as a march for the torchlight procession for the ceremony of the transference of Carl Maria von Weber's remains to his native land eighteen years after his death in London. The march which Wagner scored for a large wind band was based on two themes from Weber's opera Euryanthe and so represented a musical homage to the earlier composer.Trauersinfonie is a deeply moving and expressive piece filled with a spacious and majestic solemnity. Wagner composed this work for a large wind band; however it has been revised for symphonic band by Erik Leidzen.

for upper voices SATB and piano (with snare and tenor drums and solo cello) or chamber orchestra. This profound setting of poems by Wilfred Owen explores the idea of the sun as a redemptive force. The sense of human connection and vivid imagery of the natural world imbued in Owen's poetry is perfectly conveyed in Chilcott's music which is rich in highly effective word painting and melodies as visceral as the poetry itself. The first movement 'Song of Songs' sets the tone for the work balancing a sense of reverence and solemnity with hopefulness and optimism and a poignant and moving setting of Futility is a powerful focal point.Chilcott supplements the choral texture to great effect with snare and tenor drum creating a mood of expectancy in 'Spring Offensive' and a middle movement for tenor and cello soloists that inhabits a stark musical landscape that blossoms harmonically as the soldier tells of the 'fellowships' and 'beauty' they have found.

This anthem The Peace That Surpasseth Understanding by John Tavener was commissioned jointly by the Dean and Chapter of Westminster and the Ministry of Defence. It was first performed at a Service in Honourof the Passing of the World War One Generation in Westminster Abbey on Wednesday 11th November 2009 in the presence of Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh by the Choir of Westminster Abbeyconducted by James O’Donnell. COMPOSER’S NOTEIn this setting of Saint Paul’s great statement I have tried in a simple and primordial manner to suggest majesty solemnity and a radiance of peace andbliss. I have also given the music a ceremonial nature by inserting ‘Allelouias’ sounding from ‘Heaven’ (semi-chorus) gradually rising in pitch until they are answered by ‘Allelouias’ from‘The World’ (main choir). The music forms a gradual crescendo reflecting the meaning of the words. At the musical and spiritual climax the full organ sounds four chords which represent The Four Angels beforethe Throne of God. The final chord then transforms into the sacred monosyllable OM which hums around the building representing the Peace and Beatitude of God’s Presence. Duration: c. 4 minutes

Par WOODGATES BENJAMIN. These time-honoured words so suitable for the musical adornment of a service of marriage or blessing receive a new and very moving encounter with music through the inspiration of Benjamin Woodgates. His five-part a cappella setting is in a simple three-part form, rightly illustrating the tempestuous waters that cannot quench love in a more strenuous middle section. The overall impression however is of the stillness and solemnity of a special moment of ceremony, by definition unique and unrepeatable, which will nonetheless be renewed in spirit with every performance of this glowing and rapturous setting./ Feuillet / SSATB a Cappella

Vol.1 Premières Mélodies. Par FAURE GABRIEL. Gabriel FAURE est né à Pamiers ...(+)
Vol.1 Premières Mélodies. Par FAURE GABRIEL. Gabriel FAURE est né à Pamiers (Ariège), le 12 mai 1845. Ses dons précoces pour la musique lui permirent d'entrer dès l'âge de neuf ans à la célèbre Ecole Niedermeyer fondée à Paris pour former les organistes et les maîtres de chapelle : durant une dizaine d'années, il y reçut un enseignement de grande qualité, axé principalement sur l'étude de la musique sacrée et des grands chefs-d'oeuvre classiques, auxquels l'initia notamment Camille Saint-Saëns, son professeur de piano. Dès sa sortie de l'Ecole, Fauré entama une brillante carrière d'organiste. En 1896, il succéda à Théodore Dubois à l'orgue de la Madeleine et fut nommé professeur de composition au Conservatoire : il y eut pour élèves Ravel, Koechlin, Enesco, Schmitt. Entre-temps, il avait rencontré Liszt à Weimar et s'était initié à l'art de Wagner dont il ne subit pas véritablement l'influence. Appelé en 1905 à la direction du Conservatoire de Paris, après la démission de Théodore Dubois, membre de l'Institut, critique musical, Fauré vécut ses dernières années dans l'isolement, frappé par une irréversible surdité qui le contraignit à démissionner du Conservatoire en 1920. Il est mort à Paris, le 4 novembre 1924. La musique de ce compositeur quelquefois incompris et qui toucha à presque tous les genres (hormis l'orgue), se révèle d'une grande subtilité. Ennemi de l'emphase, Fauré a mis un contrepoint élégant, une écriture harmonique très personnelle, des inflexions imprévues et le secret de sa sensibilité musicale peu commune au service d'une oeuvre variée et d'une extrême qualité./ Répertoire / Chant et Piano
