Written
for soprano saxophone,
marimba and percussion.
Time After Time was
written for the Yesaroun'
Duo (comprising
multi-percussionist Sam
Solomon & saxophonist
Eric Hewitt) and
marimbist Nancy Zeltsman.
I set out to write a
piece that was primarily
energetic and
rhythmically challenging
enough for two
percussionist and one
honorary percussionist to
play. The title refers to
the fact that all the
material recycles itself
at different speeds. The
marimba's long,
quasi-chorale lines
proceed, initially,
without noticing the
rhythmic shifts and
upheaval below. Halfway
through the piece, a
jagged marimba solo
features the instrument's
precise, dance-like
qualities, and after
being joined by the
saxophone and percussion,
propels the whole
ensemble towards the
rhythmic and harmonic
excesses of the final
section.

The Epode features

Messiaen (1908-1992) was
a French organist and
composer passionate about
Ornithology and one of
the most important
composer of his century.
Inspired by Japanese
music, he had a very
special way of composing
and his work can be
identified by its
complexity, its diatonic
aspect, its harmony with
limited transposition,
its colour and its
additive rhythms. He
composed many works
related to ornithology
and birdsong, including
the 'Bird Catalogue' in 7
volumes..

Commissione
d to write a piece for
the 50th anniversary of
the United Nations,
Davies provided a musical
General Assembly of his
own: a bright overture
based on an Australian
aboriginal song which
gives rise to 'national
anthems' of various kinds
and instrumental
colourings. Finally the
'anthems' are combined,
'if not triumphantly',
Davies says, 'at least in
a manner whereby they get
along together'. The
first performance took
place in June 1995 in
Nottingham. It was given
by the Royal Philharmonic
Orchestra conducted by
Peter Maxwell Davies.

Between embarking on a

wrote the Valses nobles

In
1989 when Louis
Andriessen was teaching
at the State University
of New York at Buffalo,
Miles Davis Autobiography
was published.While
reading it, he suddenly
knew what the subject of
his piece for the Kronos
Quartet should be - early
be-bop licks and
especially the work of
Charlie Parker. He wanted
to do the impossible -
be-bop is not at all
idiomatic for string
instruments. But be-bop
had been an important
influence on his musical
development when he was
young, and he decided to
do something with this
music from his youth.
Basically the essence of
Charlie Parkers playing
is the extremely fast
tempo. This fast tempo is
really fast, because the
playing is based upon the
chord structure of
existing melodies which
are sometimes played two
or three times as fast as
normal. Parker needed
speed to express what he
musically felt: little
time was left for him.
This is the main
explanation of the title
of the work.In the
beginning of Facing
Death, Andriessen
literally quotes
fragments of Charlie
Parker improvisations. He
also quotes one original
melody: Ornithology
(which is based on How
High the Moon). The 7th
and 8th bars of
Ornithology become an
important motif inthe
piece. The whole
composition is one long
development in Parker's
fast tempo. This work was
composed in 1990 for
string quartet and later
arranged for saxophone
quartet.

EPIGRAMS'3 Epigrams'
(1963) came into
existence following my
piece for chamber
orchestra 'Chronos'
(1962). My purpose with
these pieces (and others
of the same period) was
to explore the sound
experiences of serialism
in space and time but
without using the
original and fundamental
substance of serialism -
the tone row. The
chromatic space was
constituted by four
identical and
complementary tone
columns (established by
transposition). The time
was divided into 25
different sizes,
plasticly conceived and
graphically notated.
These distances were then
divided in 25 new
distances in the same
proportions etc ... into
smaller and smaller
durations completely
hierarchally carried
through. This time
division, 'rhythm',
de-termines the gradual
or sudden shifts from one
tone column to
another.The 3 Epigrams
became a little play of
my own with this material
and the work is,
therefore, quite clear to
read and easy to play - a
kind of bagatelle,
really.I am now afraid
that a classic situation
is emerging: If this
programme note is any
longer it will take more
time to read this than it
will take to play the
three pieces.Pelle

Rinne-Schroeder,
Christoph.
To
celebrate the 200th
birthday of the
playwright Ludvig
Holberg, a statue was
erected in his honour in
1884. Edvard Grieg, who,
like Holberg, was born in
Bergen, was commissioned
to write an open-air
cantata for the ceremony.
But he also refers to
Holberg in his
instrumental music. The
result was a
“powdered wig
piece†(as Grieg
wrote to his publisher)
that hearkens back to
Holberg’s era
– a historicising
suite of baroque dances
for piano, ranging from
an exhilarating prelude
and several dance numbers
to a Bachian
“air†and an
impetuous
“rigaudonâ€. Later Grieg
arranged his “Suite
in the Olden Styleâ€
for string orchestra.
This version became one
of his most popular
compositions.
For
our new
scholarly-critical
edition Christoph
Rinne-Schroeder has
meticulously examined the
original print and
compared it with
previously neglected
performance material
annotated by Grieg
himself.

The cantata is one of the

1707, when Bach took up
the position of organist
at the Divi Blasii

cantata. This
instrumental combination
is unique in Bach's vocal

As far back
as I can remember, I have
always been fascinated
with fairy tales: with
their archetypal
characters and set
phrases like'Once upon a
time...'and'...they all
lived happily ever
after'. Fairy tales were
however also a source of
unrest for me as a
seismograph of mankinds
underlying primal fears
and desires. So as a
performer and composer I
have always felt that
Robert Schumann's
Marchenerzahlungen [Fairy
Tales] (scored for the
same instrumentation as
my own composition) was a
disjointed, complex
contemporary work -
despite the innocence and
naivety of its initial
appearance. I therefore
do not intend my own Es
war einmal (Once upon a
time...)to be a mere
sentimental, nostalgic
flight into the distant
past, but as a naive and
fantastical alternative
concept to our genuine
world with all its
upheavals. Jorg
Widmann.

The
Actus tragicus or Gottes
Zeit ist die allerbeste
Zeit BWV 106 remains one
of Bach's best-known and
most admired works, one
which continues to
resonate to this day - a
work of genius such as
even great masters seldom
achieve (Alfred Durr).
The cantata is one of the
earliest known vocal
works by Johann Sebastian
Bach. It was written
during his time at
Muhlhausen, probably in
1707, when Bach took up
the position of organist
at the Divi Blasii
Church. A possible
occasion for its
composition may have been
the funeral of the mayor
of Muhlhausen, Adolph
Strecker. The short, slow
Sonatina with two
recorders, two gambas and
continuo gets the
listener into the mood of
the character of the
cantata. This
instrumental combination
is unique in Bach's vocal
output, but could derive
from a central German
tradition. This new
edition is a
critical-practical
edition which combines
both the latest
discoveries in Bach
research with a detailed
Critical Report as well
as addressing current
questions on performance
practice. Score and part
available separately -
see item CA.3110600.

Bach's
second cantata starting
with the text Come now,
God's chosen saviour (II)
BWV 62 was first
performed in 1724 on the
1st Advent Sunday (which,
at that time, was the
only Advent Sunday with
church music in Leipzig)
and belongs to the annual
cycle of chorale
cantatas. As was usual
for chorale cantatas, the
unknown librettist used
the first and last verses
of Martin Luther's hymn
verbatim for the opening
chorus and the concluding
chorale but adapted the
texts of the inner
verses. After two
contrasting arias - the
one dance-like, the
second almost heroic - an
almost enraptured
accompagnato (Wir ehren
diese Herrlichtkeit, und
nahen nun zu deiner
Krippen), in which the
soprano and contralto
mostly sing in parallel
thirds and sixths, leads
to a simple concluding
chorale. Score and part
available separately -
