Composed by Basque Carol. Arranged by Christopher Thomas. 12 pages. Duration 2 minutes, 37 seconds. Carl Fischer Music #CM9734. Published by Carl Fischer Music (CF.CM9734).

ISBN 9781491161142. UPC: 680160919734. Key: A minor. English. Basque Carol.

A Basque Carol (also known as Gabriel's Message) holds a special place in Western music. The carol originates from Basque country around the 13th century, based on the Latin hymn, Angelus ad Virginem (likely of Franciscan origin). The tune quickly spread throughout Europe, finding popularity in Britain where it was even referenced in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales: Playing so sweetly that the chamber rang; / and Angelus ad virginem he sang. . .. Interestingly, the melody we know and love today is derived from the original Basque version. In my view, this tune is a perfect example of melody-crafting. It is at once hauntingly beautiful, yet warm and joyous. Its contours are complex, dramatic, yet singable. I believe this melodic accessibility is the key to the song's lasting popularity. I would also attribute A Basque Carol's continued popularity to its elegant translation into English (by Sabine Baring-Gould, who rediscovered the original Basque tune). Translations often risk sounding unimaginative, coarse, and blunt. This translation is strikingly different. It was graced with an especially poetic translation including lines such as his wings as drifted snow, his eyes as flame. I am very excited to offer a new perspective on this classic carol, joining the tradition of composers preserving and reimagining a priceless medieval melody. My first goal was to create a flowing, richly-textured, even cinematic string accompaniment for the choir. This approach was very much inspired by the dense, string-writing style of English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams. My second goal was to make the arrangement flexible enough to be performed with only choir, only strings, or (best of all) both ensembles combined. To further complement this approach, I've added an obligato line for a solo recorder (solo flute or violin work just as well). If you listen carefully, you will hear a quote from my other favorite holiday carol, Jesu Bambino. I hope you enjoy performing A Basque Carol. I especially hope that you sense the ancient magic cast into this tune, hearing the ineffable qualities that have compelled us to sustain it for nearly a millennium. Whether you're a choir, a string orchestra, or a combined ensemble, this arrangement of A Basque Carol will surely be a haunting and lovely addition to your next holiday program!.

Zum Gedachtnis des 100. Todestages P.I. Cajkovskijs fand in Tubingen Ende Oktober 1993 ein Internationales Tschaikowsky-Fest mit Ausstellungen, Konzerten und einem musikwissenschaftlichen Symposium statt, dessen Referate in diesem Band publiziert werden. Beim Tubinger Tschaikowsky-Fest wurde auch die Idee geboren, den neuen Ansatzen der Cajkovskij-Forschung und insbesondere der Cajkovskij-Philologie ein zentrales und internationales Publikationsforum zu schaffen: die Cajkovskij-Studien. In der neuen Reihe, die sich zugleich an Liebhaber wie an Fachleute wendet, werden Arbeiten zu den verschiedenen Aspekten des Lebens und Werks Cajkovskijs vorgelegt, Originalbeitrage und Ubersetzungen aus dem Russischen, gerade auch solche Arbeiten, die im Zusammenhang mit der Vorbereitung der Neuen Cajkovskij-Gesamtausgabe entstehen.

'Ast utuli' are the cheeky super-bright people who get taken all too easily by a clever con-man. Nobody wants to be the dumb one; thus, the audience first lose a healthy sense of truth, then they lose their clothes and their purses and eventually all their dignity. 'Everything is make-believe!' shouts the entertainer before disappearing with his accomplice and the loot. It's a rascal's tale, a story of deception, which is both fascinating and amusing. But behind all that - and unnoticeable until the very end - we find deceit, spoon-feeding and theft. All this is presented in Carl Orff's 'rootsy' and powerful Bavarian style - both linguistically and musically. - This recent DVD edition 'Carl Orff' presents a new view of the significant 20th-century composer Carl Orff (1895-1982).
