Diptyque is the French word for “diptych,” meaning a hinged two-part image. The first section of this two-part musical painting has an Oriental feel, with characteristic pentatonic melody lines and chords. The second section is a cheerful Saltarello dance that brings out the subtleties of the woodwind section. A juxtaposition of Eastern and Western music, Diptyque reminds listeners of the power of music in transcending all cultural, religious and political boundaries.

Dip tyque is het Franse woord voor ‘diptychon’, een ander woord voor tweeluik. Het eerste deel van dit muzikale beeld heeft oriëntaalse flair. Karakteristieke pentatonische melodielijnen en akkoorden voeren de boventoon. Hettweede deel vormt qua stijl en karakter een groot contrast, het is een levendige saltarello waarin de kwaliteiten van de houtblazers goed naar voren komen. En de muzikale boodschap? Deze prachtige combinatie van oosterse en westersemuziek neemt alle culturele, religieuze en politieke grenzen weg!

Diptyque ist das französische Wort für Diptychon“, ein zweiteiliges Bild. Der erste Teil dieses zweiteiligen musikalischen Bildes hat ein orientalisches Flair mit charakteristischen pentatonischen Melodielinien und Akkorden. Im Kontrast dazu ist der zweite Teil ein heiterer Saltarello-Tanz, der die Finessen der Holzbläser hervorhebt. Die Botschaft dieser Nebeneinanderstellung östlicher und westlicher Musik ist, dass die Musik alle kulturellen, religiösen oder politischen Grenzen aufzuheben vermag!

Diptyqu e est un titre parfaitement adapté cette composition en deux parties. Le premier tableau, majestueux, s’inspire d’une ancienne chanson enfantine intitulée Akkatobai, et dont l’origine est rattachée la ville de Nagasaki. Le second tableau offre un joyeux contraste en termes de style et tempo. Gai et lumineux, il reflète l’île méridionale de Kyushu, où se trouve Nagasaki. Une légère et allègre saltarelle met en valeur la virtuosité des bois. La juxtaposition des deux volets de ce diptyque symbolise l’entente.

Diptyque è un titolo perfetto per questa composizione in due parti. La prima, dal carattere maestoso, s’ispira ad un’antica canzone per bambini chiamata Akkatobai, originaria della citt giapponese di Nagasaki. Il secondo affresco offre un vivace contrasto in termini di stile e tempi. Gaio e luminoso, esso riflette l’isola di Kyushu nel sud del Giappone. La giustapposizione delle due parti di questo dittico vuole rappresentare l’intesa tra oriente e occidente, evocando al contempo l’universalit della musica.

Singapore Rhapsody is an exciting work in two movements based on popular Malaysian folksongs. The songs that occur in the first movement are Rasa Sayang eh (a love song), Gelang Sipaku Gelang (a song about community spirit), Suriram (a song about a girl proclaiming her virtues) and Di-Tanjung Katong (a love song that takes place at the Cape Katong on the southeast coast of Singapore). The second movement features Lenggang Kangkung, which literally means “The swaying of the watercress,” Katang Lompat (a moralistic song about the symbolism of the frog) and finally Kenek kenek-lah Udang (a wedding song). Each movement of this enchanting work can be performed separately but acomplete performance will be the crowning moment of any concert.

Dit tweedelige werk is gebaseerd op populaire Maleisische volksliedjes. De liedjes uit het eerste deel zijn Rasa Sayang eh (een liefdesliedje), Gelang Sipaku Gelang (een liedje over gemeenschapszin), Suriram (overeen meisje dat haar eeuwige vriendschap aanbiedt) en Di-Tanjung Katong (een liefdeslied dat zich afspeelt aan de zuidoostkust van Singapore). Deel twee bestaat uit Lenggang Kangkung (letterlijk ‘het zwaaien vande waterkers’), Katang Lompat (over de symboliek van de kikker) en Kenek kenek-lah Udang (een bruiloftslied). De twee delen van Singapore Rhapsody kunnen prima los van elkaar worden uitgevoerd.

Jacob de Haans Komposition besteht aus zwei Sätzen, die auf malaysischen Volksliedern basieren: zwei Liebeslieder, ein Lied über die Freundschaft, zwei Lieder über die Natur sowie ein Hochzeitslied. Die beiden Sätze von Singapore Rhapsody sind nicht untrennbar miteinander verbunden; sie können daher auch problemlos getrennt voneinander aufgeführt werden. Bringen Sie mit dieser Rhapsodie etwas Exotik in Ihr nächstes Konzert!

Singapour, la cité du Lion, est l’un des plus importants carrefours d’Asie. Singapour mélange habilement les cultures chinoises, malaises, indiennes et occidentales. La musique traditionnelle est l’image de la multiethnicité de cette ville-état. Les deux mouvements de cette composition s’inspirent de chants traditionnels malais. Le premier mouvement développe quatre chants traditionnels de caractère contrastant et contrasté. Le second mouvement est basé sur les chants Lenggang Kangkung (qui dépeint le gracieux mouvement du cresson de rizière), Katang Lompat (une chanson moraliste qui évoque le symbolisme de la grenouille) et un chant de mariage. Les deux mouvements de cetterhapsodie ne sont pas intimement liés. Il est donc possible de les interpréter séparément.

Singapore, la citt del leone, è uno dei più importanti crocevia dell’Asia. Singapore mischia abilmente le culture provenienti dalla Cina, dalla Malesia, dall’India a quelle occidentali. La musica tradizionale è l’immagine delle molte etnie di questa citt -stato. I due movimenti di questa composizione si ispirano a canti tradizionali della Malesia. Il primo movimento sviluppa quattro canti tradizionali di carattere contrastante e contrastato. Il secondo movimento è basato sui canti Lenggang Kangkung e Katang Lompat, che, come d’abitudine in oriente, descrivono animali e l’ambiente in cui vivono legandoli a simbolismi, e un canto tradizionale in occasione di matrimoni. I duemovimenti di questa rapsodia non sono legati tra loro, rendendo possibile eseguirli separatamente.

UPC: 822795640656. 9 x 12 inches.

Our 4th offering in the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra Signature Editions, is Once Around. This fast swing advanced level chart was among the first charts Thad Jones wrote for the new band in 1966, as a more modern contrast to the Basie-oriented arrangements that were in the band's early repertoire. Early 1960's forays into more open, modal jazz forms by Miles Davis and John Coltrane had turned the jazz world upside down in just a few years, prompting many artists to expand from bebop-oriented ii-V-I chord structures. This arrangement was one of Thad Jones' responses to that trend. This piece is a wide-open vehicle for improvisation. There are multiple open solo sections, each with extended improvisation opportunities. Duration 3:00.

For the present Urtext edition of Beethoven's Symphony No. 2, the editor also consulted certain sources and authentic new variants for the first time; among them are the nonet arrangement made by Beethoven's pupil Ferdinand Ries in 1807, thus with authentic variants. Thanks to his vast knowledge, the editor has uncovered a number of errors and contradictions in the sources. The basic differences with respect to other editions chiefly concern the articulation and dynamics in movements 1, 2 and 4. They can easily be found in the Critical Commentary of the conducting score.

Euphonium and piano

SKU: P2.80183

Composed by John Hennecken. Solo music, contemporary. Published by Potenza Music (P2.80183).

The Sonata for Euphonium and Piano is an abstract drama in three movements. The first movement is a meditative, lamenting adagio tonally oriented around C-sharp minor. The explosive second movement escapes tonal gravity through an intense counterpoint between the raging euphonium and crushingly percussive piano. The finale third movement adagio returns to an orientation around C-sharp minor and explores a way forward from the conflict presented in the first two movements. The work showcases the virtuosity of the euphonium, requiring tremendous flexibility, multiple tonguing, stamina, and beautiful lyricism. The piano part is an equal partner to the euphonium, also demanding great technical skill, power, and delicate cantabile style. This sonata was written for a consortium of euphonium players led by Chris Leslie, now with the West Point Army Band, and Cale Self, a professor at the University of West Georgia. The piece was first premiered and recorded at the University of Georgia by Chris Leslie and pianist Greg Hankins.

String Quartet (Parts)

SKU: HL.48024543

Set of Parts. Composed by Johannes Boris Borowski. Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music. Classical. Softcover. 32 pages. Duration 720 seconds. Bote & Bock #M202534922. Published by Bote & Bock (HL.48024543).

9.0x12.0x0.09 inches.

In this piece, commissioned by the WDR and premiered by the Quatuor Diotima in Witten in 2016, Johannes Boris Borowski shows that, to him, the string quartet genre is a rewarding field of experimentation despite any past history: A separate architecture emerges from the contrasting of noise and sound-oriented music, an architecture which causes either rather active or rather passive listening, depending on the music's consistency. The composer got his extra-musical inspiration from Dostoyevsky's 'The Brothers Karamasov': Its hypnotic detailed drama, the rhythmic change in narrative perspective and the interconnection of crime, development and romantic novel creates a similar audience expectation.

Historien Om Vor Tids Musik af Mogens Andersen. Redigeret af Finn Gravesen og Agneta Mei Hytten.

Tolvtonemusik, Fluxus, avantgarde, båndmusik, elektrofoni, konkret musik...

Mange mennesker har hørt de sære navne på de moderne tiltag i kunsten i sidste halvdel af 1900-tallet. Og man forbinder dem ofte med begivenheder, som har meget lidt med den klassiske kunstog musik at gøre: oversavning af et klaver, abstrakt maleri, happenings, mærkelige lyde m.v. Mange mennesker tog afstand fra disse ekstreme udtryk, men i radioens udsendelser Vor Tids Musik, Resonans, NyMusikog diverse koncerter kunne man følge med i, hvad der skete i den nye musik.

Bogens forfatter, Mogens Andersen (1929-2008), var musikchef i Danmarks Radio 1967-1986, og det var ham, der var øversteansvarlige for prioriteringen af den 'klassiske' musik i radio og tv. Herunder sorterede 'den ny musik', og på det område skete der særlig meget i de år, og bølgerne gik højt i den offentligedebat. I denne bog fortæller Mogens Andersen om musikken i radio og tv og det er en førstehåndsb eretning, for Mogens Andersen var med fra første færd. Der er dokumentation for det hele, og denne delaf århundredets danske musikhistorie får en helt ny dimension.

Bogen ledsager et kæmpemæssigt dokumentations-materiale på 700 dvd'er og cd'er, som indeholder så godt som samtligeudsendelser med ny musik i radio og tv. Hertil kommer et netbaseret materiale, som skal hjælpe brugere af stoffet til at orientere sig i og anvende det spændende emne og store materiale.

Bogen er et bidrag tildansk musik-, kultur- og mediehistorie og henvender sig til særligt musikinteresserede - alment og inden for videregående undervisning og forskning.

String Quartet - advanced

SKU: HL.49033197

Score and Parts. Composed by Paul Dessau. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Classical. Score and Parts. Composed 1957. 28 pages. Duration 7'. Schott Music #ED9617. Published by Schott Music (HL.49033197).

ISBN 9790001134897. UPC: 884088075477. 8.25x11.75x0.071 inches.

Dessau's String Quartet movement was written while he was also working on Brecht's opera Puntila. After Brecht's death in 1956 Dessau found himself looking for a new direction. On the one hand he was still working on music begun in collaboration with the poet, while on the other hand Dessau was trying to work towards a socially oriented musical aesthetic, which led him to compose songs for political purposes. Even this Quartet movement does not owe its inspiration purely to an artistic vision. In spite of its technical demands, the piece is intended to be comprehensible and could even be played by an amateur ensemble in its cleverly reduced form. Only discovered after the composer's death, the Movement for String Quartet is published for the first time in this edition.
