The New Edition of Bach's Complete Organ Works With repertoire works, musicians often have the choice between editions conceived for practical music-making and others that are more scholarly in concept. This also applies to the organ works of Johann Sebastian Bach, which are available today in various editions. Among them is that of Heinz Lohmann, which Breitkopf and Härtel began publishing in 1967 and whose concept strove for an amalgamation of practice and Urtext. Current Urtext status, historically informed, edited with performers in mind: More than 40 years later, the demands made on a new Urtext edition of Bach's organ works are as stringent as ever before. Next to the results of scholarly research on Bach and the sources, aspects of a historically informed performance practice are increasingly claiming our attention today. Also important for study, teaching and concert performance are, in addition to the above-mentioned demands, such external criteria as format, paper, convenient page turns and an easily legible layout that helps the user quickly grasp the musical context. The new edition, beginning in 2010, also contains all keyboard works with pedal and the 'dubious works' that are hardly dubious anymore The edition of Johann Sebastian Bach's organ works which Breitkopf and Härtel is beginning to publish in fall 2010 wants to do justice to these demands. Next to the core contents of the repertoire, it will also feature all of the master's 'clavier' works which require an independent pedal. Moreover, it will include all authentic early versions as well as the fragmentarily transmitted works. As to the dubious works, it will contain those which can be attributed to Bach today with considerable certainty. It offers incerta, early, and alternative versions on CD-ROM In this work group, the new edition uses for the first time the modern forms of editorial technique with which the synoptical depiction of various versions is made possible on CD-ROM. Thanks to the collaboration with the EDIROM project, which is a leader in the field of digital scientific editorial technique, the edition offers new types of solutions. Incerta, early, and alternative versions that cannot be included in the printed volumes for reasons of size or problems of authenticity, are published on CD-ROM, supplied with comments, and depicted synoptically. Thus, after comparing the versions, the player can decide upon a different version than the one printed in the volume, and can make a high-quality print-out of it. The texts and comments customary to the 'Breitkopf Urtext' editions comprehensive introductions, extensive source descriptions and text-critical observations can be found in the printed version of the volumes. Edited by a competent team: With Werner Breig (Erlangen), Pieter Dirksen (Culemborg/Netherlands) and Reinmar Emans (Bochum), a.o. we have brought together a team that guarantees the highest expertise in various domains. Further Bach experts such as Sven Hiemke (Hamburg), David Schulenberg (Boston) and Jean-Claude Zehnder (Basel) were also enlisted for the edition of single volumes. Werner Breig (* 1932) studied Evangelical church music in Berlin as well as musicology in Erlangen and Hamburg. He obtained his doctorate in 1962 and completed his habilitation (postdoctoral lecturing qualification) in 1973. He then devoted himself to musicology at the Universities of Freiburg i. Br, Karlsruhe, Wuppertal and Bochum. Since his retirement in 1997 he has been living in Erlangen. Between 1997 and 2007 Breig was appointed General Editor of the complete edition of Richard Wagners letters. He is the author of many publications and editions, particularly of early clavier and organ music by Heinrich Schütz and Johann Sebastian Bach, but also of Richard Wagner and Arnold Schoenberg. Furthermore he is the author of the Bach article in the dictionary Die Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart (MGG, 2nd edition). Pieter Dirksen (* 1961) studied organ, harpsichord and musicology. His 1996 doctoral thesis on Sweelinck's keyboard music was awarded the Praemium Erasmianum. Dirksen has since published many studies on, and editions of, several masters of the 17th century (Sweelinck, Bull, Cornet, Scheidt, Scheidemann, Buxtehude, Luebeck, Johann Christoph Bach) as well as Johann Sebastian Bach. In collaboration with Harald Vogel, he edited Sweelinck's Complete Works for Keyboard Instrument (4 volumes, Breitkopf and Härtel). Dirksen is a member of the academic board of the Bach-Jahrbuch as well as a sought-after harpsichordist, organist and continuo player in international ensembles. Dirksen issued a number of much-acclaimed solo recordings (Sweelinck, Scheidemann, Boehm, Louis Couperin, Bach-Vivaldi, Bachs Art of Fugue and Goldberg Variations). Edison Winner 2003. Reinmar Emans (* 1953) studied musicology in Bonn and wrote his doctoral thesis on the cantatas and canzonettas of Giovanni Legrenzi in 1982. From 1983 to 2008 he was an academic staff member of the Johann-Sebastian-Bach-Institut Göttingen, and temporarily deputy of the managing director. He has taught in Bochum, Marburg, Detmold, Cologne and Hamburg, and has been a freelance contributor to various music periodicals. In 2000 he was responsible for the conception and direction of the Thuringian state exhibition 'Der junge Bach: Weil er nicht aufzuhalten' in Erfurt. He has conducted research and produced publications on opera and the cantata in 17th-century Italy, on stylistic development in the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, and on editorial philology./ Répertoire / Orgue

Par . “Una voce poco profonda”: Curtain up for Trouser Roles and Heroines Whether the voice is lyric light or heavy, whether it can master coloratura, perhaps even has dramatic potential – in the OperAria mezzo-soprano and alto volumes, singers with a deeper voice and a special talent for the trouser role through to the heroine find everything they need for their performance. Throbbing of the heart? Yes, that’s simply part of the game! Feeling nervous? No, because actually nothing can go wrong with OperAria. The best vocal coach for auditions and current theatre practice. Only the voice needs to do its bit. Toi, toi, toi! “Our goal is to give the user a modern-day, systematically structured vocal coach who satisfies the demands of present-day theater practice. At long last a consistent repertoire and a well-ordered conflation of respective audition arias for all vocal genres.” (Peter Anton Ling and Marina Sandel, editors) OperAria – repertoire anthology of opera arias according to vocal criteria (range, tessitura, specifics, type of aria) with due regard to practical aspects of musical and theatrical nature (style, era, role type, national provenance) with comments on the arias information on the composer, the librettist, the work, the range and of versions or casting a short synopsis of the contents illuminating the basic dramatic constellation in the context of the opera’s plot an evaluation from the singer’s point of view with “phonetic assistant” and “text assistant” aria texts in the original language spoken by native speakers as an audio file (mp3) aria texts in German and English translations as a text file (pdf) available for download / Date parution : 2022-11-04/ Recueil / Chant et Piano

Bienvenue dans l'aventure musicale et guitaristique que vous allez découvrir au fil de ces pages. A travers de nombreux exemples clairs et précis, vous allez tout de suite être mis en situation de jeu afin de pouvoir allier apprentissage et plaisir. En effet, nous oublions bien trop souvent la notion de jeu dans l'expression 'jouer de la musique' ! Ainsi, dans cette nouvelle approche, je vous propose d'apprendre progressivement toutes les notions de base qu'un musicien, et plus particulièrement un guitariste, se doit de connaître et de maîtriser. Cette méthode est plus particulièrement destinée à l'apprentissage de la guitare folk, appelée également guitare acoustique. Son objectif est de vous donner toutes les clés pour jouer et enchaîner les accords que vous trouverez dans n'importe quel morceau que vous désirerez ajouter à votre répertoire. Chaque exemple vous permettra d'apprendre les techniques de jeu et les positions d'accords essentielles pour un guitariste afin d'être capable d'accompagner sereinement un chanteur, une chanteuse ou vous-même. Gardez à l'esprit que n'importe quelle chanson possède un début, un milieu et une fin, éléments que vous devez savoir jouer ! N'omettez jamais de travailler une de ces parties. Il n'y a rien de plus frustrant pour celui qui vous écoute ou celui qui décide de chanter ou de jouer avec vous, que de ne pouvoir aller d'un bout à l'autre d'un morceau. Cela sera frustrant pour vous également. Si vous regardez autour de vous, dans votre famille ou votre entourage, de nombreux musiciens sont paralysés dès qu'ils n'ont plus leur partition sous les yeux et ne savent souvent en jouer qu'un extrait. A vous de ne pas tomber dans ce piège afin de jouer un maximum par coeur. Considérez les partitions uniquement comme un aide-mémoire. Toute l'attention que vous porterez auditivement à votre musique sera toujours plus efficace que l'attention visuelle que vous porterez à vos partitions. Faites appel à vos sens et débranchez votre cerveau ! Ne devenez pas juste un guitariste de plus, mais devenez un musicien qui joue de la guitare ! Enfin, n'oubliez pas que répéter ne serait-ce que quinze minutes tous les jours, est cent fois plus efficace que de répéter tous les samedis et mercredis après-midi pendant trois heures. Sur ce, à vos médiators ! Attention les doigts ne sont pas livrés avec la méthode ! / Guitare

The OperAria repertoire anthology was much applauded when it came on stage with three baritone volumes in 2015. The successful baritone debut was followed in 2017/18 by the appearance of the four soprano volumes, also conquering hearts in no time. Now, another performance: The curtain rises on the bass volumes, the foundation of the vocal family for heavier, darker voices, though nevertheless brilliant and full of radiance. The protagonists have such well-known names as Bartolo, Don Basilio, Colline, Don Pasquale, Falstaff, Figaro, Kecal, Osmin, Sarastro. Other heroes less often in the limelight, such as Dulcamara, Sancho Pansa, Phanuel, and Sir Morosus, can certainly also count on much applause. 'It is my aim to give students a modern, systematically structured, well-informed vocal coach that meets the demands of present-day stage practice. And, of course, a cohesive repertoire and logical presentation of audition arias for every vocal genre. ' (Peter Anton Ling) OperAria is the ideal ?vocal coach? for all voice types. Edited by Peter Anton Ling, the books address all singers and are conceived above all for training and auditions. In addition, through their careful selection, they offer valuable inspiration for opera recitals.

Compositori Italiani del XX secolo Vol. 1. New volume of the Ricordi Instrumental Library series dedicated to the instrumental repertoire of the Twentieth Century. The series includes publications for piano, violin/piano, guitar and, now, cello/piano. - This anthology fills an editorial void by re-proposing a series of pieces that would otherwise be difficult, if not downright impossible, to find and yet have played a special role in the evolution of music for cello and piano in Italy. - The criteria adopted in choosing these pieces are: their musical value, their interest from a piano teacher’s point of view and their ability to represent a given period in the history of Italian music and culture. / Musique contemporaine / Date parution : 1905-07-05/ Recueil / Violoncelle et Piano

The title of this piece is inspired by a prime swimming and snorkeling location within the Baja Mexican corridor of Los Cabos. (There is actually no authentic steel band tradition in that region, but the location seems ideal for pan!) It was written for Ken Broadway and the University of Florida's Sunshine Steelers pan group. / Batterie
