Shan Hai Jing is like a history book, which contains many mythological stories depictingthousands of mountains and waters, geography and humanities, The Concerto for Orchestra Shan Hai Jing is using alarge scyle orchestra in multi-movements, inspired by the anceint supernatural aesthetics, and creates an imaginaryuniverse and human illusion with an abstract sound world. This work is not based on the story of the ancient gods, butbased on the geographical distribution of the Fivering Mountains, metaphorical waters, mountains range, folkcustoms, and rituals of the gods, depicting the north, west, east, south, and middle respectively in five movements. Thecharacteristics of the mountain system and the regional customs.The first movement, Beishan Jing (Largo) (page 1-30). In this movement, folk music elements such as the traditionalMongolian “Humai” and the traditional Tibetan “Bon’e’ri” are used to Ode the folk customs and heroism of the vastmountains and plains and different ethnic groups.The second movement, Xishan Jing (Allegro and Adagio) (page 31-52). The music of this movement has the westernstyle of Gansu and Qinghai Plateau.The third movement, Dongshan Jing (Adagio and Allegro) (page 53-86). The legend of great bells that ringspontaneously without being struck has origins in the ancient Classic of Mountains and Seas, in which we read:“Upon the Mountains of Plenty, Nine Bells ring with Knowledge of the Frost.”Tales of those blasts of wind that pulse like a heartbeat through caverns in the limestone cliffs, setting off a mysterioussympathetic ringing from bells encrusted in frost, led to “Frost-Bell” becoming a word during the Tang dynasty, almosta millennium after the Mountains and Seas classic first appeared.The fourth movement, Nanshan Jing (Adagio and Andante) (page 87-100) . The music is characterized by thewoodwinds and string harmonics texture depicting of the cloud mountain in the south of the Yangtze River, Fujian,Guangdong and Hunan.The fifth movement, Zhongshan Jing (Allegretto) (page 101-118) symbolizes the end of the ritual ceremony, which isroughly centered on the sacred place of Chu. The people danced together, waving flowers and hitting the bronze drums,just like sending the Divine Comedy, the scene is lively, the atmosphere is Solemn and lively.

â€� �More than any other human activity, music has the power to reveal who we are and how and what we love in this world.”  â� �“ Don Saliers (from the Introduction)   Originally written as a series of columns for The American Organist magazine,  Themes and Variations is a collection of reflections for music-lovers as well as music-makers.    With each essay, theologian and musician Don Saliers embraces the connection between musical passages and life passages, exploring “the powerful way in which music explores a double journey into the depths of humanity and the mystery of the divine.”    These seventy-plus reflections, filled with personal stories and thoughtful insights, make an excellent basis for conversations about music in churches, classrooms, or among friends.    .

Set includes 2 scoresCirce (2010–11), a cantata for soprano and organ, takes a contemporary approach to the genre of the baroque secular solo cantata. As with many baroque works, the subject matter is taken from the classical world; in this case it is the story of Circe, the sorceress (or minor goddess: daughter of the sun god Helios and the sea nymph Perse) from Homer’s Odyssey. However,in the spirit of contemporary adaptation, the texts are three poems by American poet Louise Glück from her book Meadowlands (1996), a large section of which contains poems related to characters from the Odyssey. In the Odyssey, Odysseus and his men, returning home from the Trojan War, are lured to Circe’s island (Aeaea). Through her magic, Circe transforms Odysseus’s men into animals, but with help from the god Hermes, Odysseus is able to resist her magic himself, and Circe is forced to restore his men to human form. For the next year, Odysseus and his men remain on the island in leisure, and Odysseus becomes Circe’s lover. However, after the year has passed, Odysseus decides to continue the journey home to Ithaca (to return to his wife Penelope, who is patiently waiting for him). Circe reluctantly lets him go. Despite her divine heritage, the Circe of Glück’s poems is consumed with the quite human emotions of longing, bitterness, and jealousy. The musical language of the work is contemporary, though there is a great deal of allusion to baroque style and specific musical forms (including sarabande, loure, ground, plaint, and musette).Soprano and Organ Duration: 9’ Composed: 2010 Published by: Zimbel Press.

Liam shares remarkable stories of human life and of the people and events that have touched him during his years of ministry, along with fascinating perspectives on his own spiritual awakening. These pages reveal a God who does not intrude upon human living but rather is available to enter into the very depth of it and become present to those who wish for “eyes to see, and ears to hear”. Here are stories of pain and beauty, challenge and consolation, but, above all, inspiration Liam Lawton is an award-winning, critically acclaimed Irish singer-songwriter, author and Roman Catholic priest, who was ordained in 1984.

English-German.

Franz Liszt was barely 20 years old when he first read Dante s Divine Comedy, but it left a lasting impression on him throughout his entire life that only a truly impactful creation can have on the human soul. This is what inspired the Dante Sonata which Liszt premiered in Vienna in 1837. Stemming from this, he created a revised version entitled Apres une lecture du Dante, Fantasia quasi Sonata which appeared in 1856 within the second cycle of his Années de pelerinage (Years of Pilgrimage).In the appendix of the present edition, the work s earlier version entitled Paralipomenes a la Divina Commedia, Fantaisie symphonique is also included. It has survived in the handwritingof Liszt s secretary, Gaetanio Belloni, and it contains autograph notes by Liszts. This revised (2016) edition contains not only musical scores of excellent quality, but also a detailed foreword in English and German as well as critical notes in English.

Throu gh imaginative poetic metaphors in the narrative and engaging yet wonderfully accessible music, Choplin leads us on a unique journey to reveal the Christmas story. The familiar components are all there--the visitations of the angels, the startled excitement of the shepherds, the shimmering guiding star, the worshipful reverence of the three kings. Pepper was also inspired to include the poignant chronicle of Simeon, whose greatest desire was to live long enough to personally witness the coming of the promised One, thus fulfilling the prophecy of long ago. Heaven's Child is a transforming presentation, taking us deeply into the mystery and awe of Christmas and into the eternal significance of that perfect union of heaven and earth--the divine and the human.

Christina Rossetti’s poem extolls Mary, the mother of Jesus, exploring in images from nature the paradox of a divine, yet helpless, infant born to a human mother: The Sun of Righteousness her Son, she was His morning star. Eleanor Daley’s setting combines rich harmonies with a mood of hushed awe, in textures which sensitively move from unison to two-part passages, then open out to four-part harmony.SSAA, a cappella Published by: Treble Clef Music Minimum order quantity: 8 copies.

ISBN 9780711992771.

John Tavener 'Agraphon' arranged for soprano, timpani and strings. Commissioned by the Athens Concert Hall, first performed on 29th October 1995. The music contains two symbolic ideas - the first being the opening series of intervals which appear to be inexhaustible in their multifaceted symbolism, representing the music of the spheres. If the angel's song is indeed one of knowledge, they could not choose a better theme of harmony. And then there is the apparent evil of the endless series of spiralling sixths and sevenths, falling without apparent hope of redemption through an eternal geometric series, down into a hellish realm. Agraphon must be performed with great intensity, literally at the breaking point of intensity and petrification. For the voice the style alternates between European and classical Indian singing; for example, the passage beginning on page 12 is entirely semi-improvised. The singer must listen to many examples of classical Indian music, or else be trained by a master. The music ends fiercely at the incomprehensible clash and union between the Divine and the human. Duration 22 minutes. Instrumental parts are available on hire only.
