A recipient
of the New Music USA 2013
Live Music For Dance
Award commissioning
grant, Not Alone is
inspired by the ancient
Chinese poet Li Bai's
poem Drinking Alone under
the Moon with the Shadow.
The premiere was given on
April 26, 2014 by the
PRISM Quartet with the
Nai-Ni Chen Dance
Company, which
commissioned the work to
celebrate its 25th
Anniversary NYC Season.
From the Program Note by
Matthew Levy (The PRISM
Quartet), Not Alone
(2014) is an
interdisciplinary
work...but it stands
alone in a chamber music
setting. The work spans a
stunning range of
textures, from
introspective solos for
each of the four
saxophones to majestic
hyper-active gestures.
The PRISM Quartet
recorded Not Alone for a
2017 release on XAS
Records titled Paradigm
Lost. But we're excited
for a wider community of
saxophonists to embrace
the work, and share it
with their own audiences.
Not Alone is published
together with Happy
Birthday to PRISM, a
brief miniature that Chen
Yi wrote for the
quartet's 20th
anniversary celebration
in 2004. For advanced
performers.______________

ancient Chinese poet Li

“Drinking Alone

premierewas given on
April 26, 2014 by the
PRISM Quartet with the
Nai-Ni Chen Dance
Company, which
commissioned thework to
celebrate its 25th
Anniversary NYC
Season. Program Note
by composer Chen YiThe
original inspiration for
this work for both the
choreographer and the
composer came from the
Tang Dynasty poem - Alone
Under the Moon by Li Bai.
The poem describes the
poet being alone in a
garden. The moon and his
shadow became his
companions that night.
The choreographer brings
this idea to modern life
in an urban setting. She
created a series of
“mindscapesâ€
which are the result of
the exploration of the
different mental and
physical states of being
alone.Through
self-examination, the
choreographer raises the
question: are we ever
really alone? Our
physical being may be
standing by itself, but
what about our
introspective self? When
we are still, we let our
thoughts pass by like
flowing water. If we
could engage with our
shadows, what would it be
like?Program Note by
Matthew Levy, The PRISM
QuartetThe PRISM Quartet
has commissioned a great
many composers since our
founding days in 1984.
Chen Yi is among ahandful
of our very favorites,
and one to whom
we’ve returned
time and time again. Her
music is powerful,
expansive,intimate, and
draws connections between
Eastern and Western,
ancient and modern
traditions in a voice all
her own.Chen Yi has
written or adapted four
works for the PRISM
Quartet. She penned a
wonderful miniature
called HappyBirth day to
PRISM to celebrate the
ensemble’s 20th
anniversary back in 2004
(Dedication, Innova
Recordings).We
subsequently commissioned
her to compose Septet
(2008) for Erhu, Pipa,
Percussion, and Saxophone
Quartet(2008), premiered
and recorded with the New
York ensemble Music From
China (Antiphony, Innova
Recordings 2010).In 2015,
the PRISM Quartet
performed and recorded
(XAS Records) a new
version of her saxophone
quartet concerto,BA YIN,
with the University of
Missouri-Kansas City Wind
Ensemble under the baton
of Steven Davis
(originally writtenfor
the Rascher Quartet and
scored for saxophones and
string
orchestra.).Finally, Not
Alone (2014) is an
interdisciplinary work
written for the Nai-Ni
Chen Dance Company with
the PRISMQuartet, but it
stands alone in a chamber
music setting. The work
spans a stunning range of
textures, from
introspectivesolos for
each of the four
saxophones to majestic
hyper-active gestures.
The PRISM Quartet
recorded Not Alonefor a
2017 release on XAS
Records titled Paradigm
Lost. But we’re
excited for a wider
community of saxophonists
toembrace the work, and
share it with their own
audiences.In his liner
notes for the recording,
WNYC’s John
Schaefer writes:
“As with much of
her music, Chen employs
percussiveeffects and
glissandi; in Chinese
music these are not
considered
“extended
techniques†or
special effects, but
animportant part of the
performer’s
arsenal. Here, they help
create the twilit mood of
the opening moments. The
piecesoon becomes more
dramatic, suggesting the
arrival of the
drinker’s
companions (real or
imagined) and his or
herincreasingly garrulous
outbursts. Passages of
consonance and discord
can easily be heard as
companionable singingand
bouts of drunken
argument. The piece
bustles along on a kind
of restless energy,
until, finally, that
restlessnesssubsides,
giving way to a gently
humorous ending where a
short falling phrase
signals the drinker
falling
asleep.â€.

Most of us,
when confronted with the
term graffiti, are likely
to associate it with the
rather desolate wall
scrawlings all over our
urban landscapes.
However, this is not the
whole picture: no less
artists than Klee, Miro,
Dubuffet, and Picasso
were interestedin it (the
latter painting examples
himself on Parisian
walls). In our time,
there is the highly
interesting and
controversial phenomenon
of Street Art, which has
occasionally wittily
succeeded in criticizing
the commercialization of
cities. At their best,
street artists have been
able to thwart the
expectations created by
omnipresent mass media
and by advertising - one
can find some
particularly remarkable
examples in metropolises
such as Berlin, Paris, or
New York. Though this was
the initial stimulus for
Graffiti, it finally
branched into rather
different directions: it
is only very loosely,
ifat all, connected to
the phenomenon of Street
Art (or to the visual
arts). The music is not
illustrative nor is it
programmatic and the main
idea was to compose a
music which is not
restricted as to time or
place, and which offers
strong contrasts between
different modes of
expression. The three
movements headings give a
hint of the changing
modes, moods, and
structures of the music.
The first movement,
Palimpsest,is
polydimensional and
many-layered; one can
hear allusions to a
multiplicity of styles.
The second movement,
Notturno urbano, forms a
strong contrast to the
hyperactive previous
movement. It starts with
distant and gradually
approaching bell-like
sounds, from which the
whole movement's musical
material is being
derived. The instruments
are often used in an
unconventional way: the
winds as well as the
strings employ extended
techniques, which
contributes to the
aloofness and the
mysteriousness of the
movement. The third,
highly virtuosic,
movement, is a kind of an
'urban passacaglia' (the
name of this musical form
actually derives from the
Spanish 'pasar una
calle', 'to walk along a
street'). It consists of
eight incisive chords,
which are played
continuously by the
brass, albeit always in a
different way. Two worlds
collide in this movement:
the brass attacks are
commented upon by
flitting interjections of
different instruments,
which are highly varied
in character and length.
As a whole, the musical
language of Graffiti
shifts between roughness
and refinement,
complexity and
transparency. It is rich
in contrast and
labyrinthine, neither
tonal nor atonal.
Graffiti calls for great
agility, virtuosity, and
constant changes of
perspective from the
musicians; each
instrument is being
treated as a soloist.

by the Los Angeles
Philharmonic Association,

NRW and Ensemble

Palestrina'
s Missa Paternoster is
one of the masses by this
composer that were
published neither during
his lifetime nor after
his death. The work has
come down to us in one
single manuscript source
from the collections of
the Cappella Sistina in
Rome, a copy transcribed
by D. Brancadore in
1618.The mass is written
on motifs from the
ancient plainchant Pater
noster melody from the
mass liturgy, which
underlays the movements
in an admirable
multiplicity of melodic
forms. New counterpoints
are repeatedly
intertwined with the
themes of the title
melody over the course of
the mass. Certain
idiosyncrasies in the
voice-leading and the
austere sonorities that
recall the late
Netherlandish tradition
give rise to the
hypothesis that this is a
relatively early work of
Palestrina.Several
decades ago, the Missa
Paternoster was published
by Breitkopf & Hartel in
a performance edition
prepared by Hermann
Bauerle. The present
edition is based on the
copy of the work printed
in the Choirbook 68
(Cappella Sistina) of the
Biblioteca Vaticana in
Rome. The poor condition
of the source made it
necessary to compare it
with Haberl's Complete
Edition as weil, after
which two errors have to
be corrected. Our edition
cannot pretend to offer a
definitive reading of the
accidentals, since they
are difficult to
distinguish in the
original. The work was
transposed, as this
seemed more appropriate
to present-day choral
practice. Finally, the
note values were reduced
by a half and the closing
notes reproduced
uniforrnly as longae.
Palestrina's Missa
,,Pater noster occupies a
distinguished position
next to its better known,
four-part fellow works.
lt deserves this rank
thanks to its dignified
and broadly sweeping
themes, the archaic
loftiness of its sound,
and the wealth of motivic
work contained within it.
We sincerely hope that
this new edition will
stimulate choirs to turn
their attention once
again to this rarely sung
mass by the great Roman
master.Rudolf

The
three movements examine
the same materials from
different points of view;
in the first, the ideas
are chronologically
separated, but they
alternate and develop
through the instruments
in an intensifying way
that generates a rather
imposing and grandiose
rhetoric. The second,
with its hypnoti,
incessant reiterations at
maximum volume of a
simultaneous combination
of motives of different l
lengths and shapes, ends
just short of becoming
unbearable... In the last
movement the flute,
clarinet and violin
slowly unfold a
continuous texture that
combines several of the
earlier elements, while
the piano softly
interjects the echo of
its first movement
triplets.

Among
Vivaldi's many flute and
recorder concertos, two,
both for transverse
flute, were known until a
few years ago only in
incomplete form: RV 431
and 432. Both are written
in the comfortable and
expressive key of E
minor, are transmitted in
autograph manuscripts and
lack their second
movement (RV 432 also
lacks its third
movement). The seemingly
enigmatic instruction
Grave sopra il libro
replacing the second
movement has given rise
to the most fanciful
hypotheses. The discovery
in Edinburgh, in 2010, of
a concerto for transverse
flute in D minor entitled
Il gran Mogol suddenly
shed light on the
situation: this was an
earlier version of RV
431, now complete with
its middle movement, a
Larghetto that is very
possibly identical with
the one missing in RV
431. This Gran Mogol,
which belonged to Robert
Kerr, a Scottish nobleman
and amateur flautist, was
already known by name to
scholars on account of
its listing in an
eighteenth-century
catalogue as part of a
set of Vivaldi concertos
bearing geographical
titles: more recently,
there has come to light a
letter written by Vivaldi
three months before his
death in which the
composer describes this
setin detail. It is very
likely that RV 431 and RV
432 belonged to this
group of works, the last
known collection of its
kind in Vivaldis oeuvre.
This critical edition
places these closely
related works side by
side for the first time,
placing them in their
historical context and
making them performable
through its
reconstruction of some
lost parts.

With the
publication of his
hypnotic Pater noster,
Carus proudly presents
Jacek Sykulski as a new
composer in the Carus
Contemporary series.
Whilst Sykulski has
achieved worldwide
success as Director of
the Academic Choir at the
University of Poznan and
the Poznan Boys' Choir,
as a composer he has
remained a well-guarded
secret until now. In his
sacred compositions he
combines in music the
deeply Catholic-imbued
tradition of his country
with his own
compositional technique,
characterized by a
tremendous vocal
sensuousness of sound and
a conscious use of
tonality enriched by
dissonance. His Pater
noster was composed in
2009 and revised in 2015
for a performance by the
RIAS Kammerchor in
Berlin. The first section
of this three-part work
for eight-part choir
(tenors and sopranos also
split into three) begins
with the invocation Pater
noster homophonically in
A minor. This then
introduces the Gregorian
liturgical melody of the
Our Father canonically
and aleatorically, like a
contemplative
congregational hymn. The
middle section calls out
Dein Reich komme in
increasingly insistent
rhythmic declamation,
more demanding, with
hypnotic repetitions and
intensifications. In the
last section, Sykulski
returns to the opening
harmonies, but now a
semitone lower on A flat,
followed by an
intensification at the
words sed libera nos a
malo - and delivery us
from evil once more; this
ends unresolved in a
diatonic cluster on A
flat as the paradigm of
our imperfect earthly
existence. The
eight-minute
unaccompanied composition
is extremely singable,
impressive, and not
difficult to master. The
piece is suitable for use
in the liturgy, as well
as in concerts and
competitions.

The
Modal Column is a cycle
of paired pieces for
piano, starting from the
classical structure-
prelude-fugue - used by
Bach in Das
wohltemperierte Klavier.
The modes that are being
used have a relatively
simple octavizing
structure, hence an
almost infinite variety
of combinations that can
generate a large number
of pieces, impossible to
exhaust by a composer.
Therein lies the idea of
a column, in the sense
given by Brancusi, i.e.
an endless succession of
modules.
In the
vision of the author, the
mechanism of the mode is
a secondary (ancillary)
aspect, the primary goal
is deciphering the ethos
incorporated in it.
The prelude-fugue
structure hypostatizesthe
musical discourse at the
two possible extremes.
free-constructed. While
Romanian music rules in
free areas, like any old
music with an (especially
oral) tradition, the
constructed pieces start
from Dutch (Flemish) or
Venetian polyphony, which
precedes the idea of
fugue, understood as a
technology of the
movement (dynamics) of
sound, after the models
of Giovanni Gabrieli or
Ockeghem.
The
Modal Column is first of
all the presentation of a
melodic world but, as the
subtitle indicates, also
an investigation into the
ethos of Romanian music.
The forms in which the
pieces are thought are
simple, non-ostentatious,
the whole cycle being in
fact a musical workshop,
whose better parts may be
worth including in ampler
works. Before the
succinct description of
the six couples in Books
I and II, a few
observations, necessary
from a musicological
point of view:
1. The modes are rich
in nostalgia, with even
graver nuances in the
livelier movements.
2. It is well-known,
that all the columns -
Egyptian obelisks,
ancient ornamental
columns - have scenarios
engraved on them.
Trajan's Column describes
the wars against the
Dacians and their defeat.
George Calinescu says,
'Trajan's Column is
beautiful, but let us not
forget that the Dacians
are in chains on it.' The
Romanian melos is
millennia-old and was but
little influenced by
historical.

Among
Vivaldi's many flute and
recorder concertos, two,
both for transverse
flute, were known until a
few years ago only in
incomplete form: RV 431
and 432. Both are written
in the comfortable and
expressive key of E
minor, are transmitted in
autograph manuscripts and
lack their second
movement (RV 432 also
lacks its third
movement). The seemingly
enigmatic instruction
“Grave sopra il
libro” replacing
the second movement has
given rise to the most
fanciful
hypotheses.
The
discovery in Edinburgh,
in 2010, of a concerto
for transverse flute in D
minor entitled “Il
gran Mogol”
suddenly shed light on
the situation: this was
an earlier version of RV
431, now complete with
its middle movement, a
“Larghetto”
that is very possibly
identical with the one
missing in RV 431. This
“Gran Mogol”,
which belonged to Robert
Kerr, a Scottish nobleman
and amateur flautist, was
already known by name to
scholars on account of
its listing in an
eighteenth-century
catalogue as part of a
set of Vivaldi concertos
bearing geographical
titles: more recently,
there has come to light a
letter written by Vivaldi
three months before his
death in which the
composer describes this
set in detail. It is very
likely that RV 431 and RV
432 belonged to this
groupof works, the last
known collection of its
kind in Vivaldi's
oeuvre.

Berse
rkers were special
warriors common to the
Vikings and the ancient
Celtic tribes who would
work themselves into a
frenzy with mead,
mushrooms and
hyperventilation to
achieve performances of
ferocious courage in
battle. Although deadly
in combat, the berserking
process was paradoxically
a suicidal one since,
having lost their senses,
they were vulnerable to a
more stealthy attack. The
initial burst of
inspiration for this work
came in 1989 after
watching a soccer game in
which Celtic Glasgow
turned in a
characteristically
passionate, frenzied but
ultimately futile display
against Partizan
Belgrade. But whatever
the genesis of the piece,
it is essentially
abstract. The
relationship between
soloist and orchestra
changes from section to
section. In the opening
fast music they are in
argument and opposition
most of the time, each
striving to dominate. In
the slow middle section
the piano is very much to
the fore and in the final
quick section they become
equal partners.
