INSTRUMENTATION : ORCHESTRA VERSION : STUDY SCORE DESCRIPTION : THE PREMIÈRE OF DAUDET'S PLAY, L'ARLÉSIENNE, WITH INCIDENTAL MUSIC BY BIZET, AT THE THÉÂTRE DU VAUDEVILLE ON 3 SEPTEMBER 1872, WAS A DEVASTATING EVENT FOR BOTH PLAYWRIGHT AND COMPOSER AND THE PRODUCTION WAS REMOVED FROM THE REPERTORY AFTER 19 PERFORMANCES. THE CRITIC JOHANNÈS WEBER, HOWEVER, WAS ALERT TO THE QUALITY OF BIZET'S SCORE AND SUGGESTED THAT THE COMPOSER SHOULD EXCERPT AND RESCORE SEVERAL PIECES FOR THE CONCERTS POPULAIRES WHERE 'THE LOVELY MUSIC WOULD BE BETTER APPRECIATED THAN AT THE VAUDEVILLE'. BIZET MUST HAVE MOVED RATHER QUICKLY TO FOLLOW WEBER'S SUGGESTION, FOR THE PREMIÈRE OF THE FIRST ARLÉSIENNE SUITE TOOK PLACE ONLY SIX WEEKS LATER AT THE CONCERTS POPULAIRES ON 1 NOVEMBER 1872 AND THE WORK IN ITS NEW ABRIDGED FORM WAS SOON TAKEN UP BY MANY OTHER ORCHESTRAS. THUS, BEFORE HIS DEATH IN JUNE 1875, BIZET HAD THE SATISFACTION THAT HIS SUITE FROM L'ARLÉSIENNE WAS PLAYED BY ALL THE MAJOR CONCERT SOCIETIES IN PARIS AND IT HAS REMAINED FIRMLY IN THE CONCERT AND RECORDED REPERTOIRE EVER SINCE.

Par RESPIGHI OTTORINO. All the shrouded mystery and resplendent grandeur of the fourth movement of Respighi's masterpiece, Pines of Rome, has been effectively captured in this brilliant arrangement by Douglas E. Wagner for string orchestra and timpani (required). The symphonic poem, 'The Pines of the Appian Way' is one of Respighi's most frequently performed and recorded works and stands as the most popular of all three of his Rome-inspired suites.

The New Essential Companion. Henrik Wiese, the internationally renowned orchestral and solo flautist, has spent four years compiling what promises to be the definitive guide to audition repertoire for students preparing for a seat in a professional orchestra. He has worked with his own students in Salzburg as they engaged in auditions, as well as with other professional players and his teaching colleagues at the conservatorium. He sourced repertoire lists from job advertisements past and present and referred to other audition lists such as those of Baxtresser and Wye. Considerable research has gone into the differences between existing editions of the chosen pieces even, surprisingly, from twentieth century composers such as Prokofiev and Stravinsky. 'The Flute Audition” then looks at practical matters such as page turns and metronome markings. Wiese comments, for example, that Hindemith's own recording takes a passage from 'Symphonic Metamorphoses” markedly slower than in the score. The result of all this painstaking research is the most comprehensive collection of international audition pieces yet published in a single volume. 'This is an excellent collection of orchestral excerpts for the next generation of young musicians. You can use it to prepare for auditions anywhere in the world. Whether it's for an opera house, symphony or chamber orchestra, everything you need is here.'/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière

Par BRIDGE FRANK. Frank Bridge was one of the finest English composers of the first half of the 20th century. The Pageant of London is his only work for wind band, comprising of two marches, one scored from Bridge’s best known organ piece and including the chimes ofBig Ben, plus three short renaissance pastiche items, one arranged from Playford (later used by Peter Warlock in Capriol Suite). The music is tuneful, approachable and, in the words of wind band ‘legend’ Timothy Reynish makes a fine alternative toHolst’s two suites, which were composed around the same time. Reynish has introduced this work to concert bands right across the world. It has been performed in USA and the Far East, recorded by the celebrated Kosei Wind Orchestra of Japan and alsoby the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in the Chandos edition of Bridge Orchestral Music./ Répertoire / Orchestre D'Harmonie

A Gaelic Blessing is a simple and catchy piece by Craig McLeish. This piece will be particularly useful for school, junior and community choirs, and a tuneful introduction to singing simple contrapuntal lines. The second soprano part repeats the tune at bar 33 and should dominate here - the first sopranos and altos should support appropriately. Ease and beauty of tone should be of paramount importance throughout. An inspiring selection of new works from a range of contemporary composers, the Novello New Choral Series offers pieces for all types of choirs, including sacred and secular works from simple, four-part settings to more expansive, yet accessible, repertoire in an exciting variety of styles. Craig McLeish began his musical life as a chorister at St Paul's Cathedral under Barry Rose. He began composing at the age of ten and his preces and responses for four trebles are still in the repertoire. After a degree at York University he returned to London to study at the Guildhall and sang again at St Paul's as a tenor. At the time he also arranged and copied music for West End shows such as Les Miserables and Miss Saigon, and played bass guitar for various groups. This led to a spell in the cult pop band 'Fat and Frantic', who shaved the top 100 twice with the whimsical anthem Last night my wife hoovered my head. He also worked as musical assistant for David Heneker (Half a Sixpence) and David Fanshawe (African Sanctus). In 1992 Craig became director of the Methodist Association of Youth Clubs Orchestra and Singers, performing concerts throughout the UK and becoming involved in a number of recordings and BBC broadcasts. During this time he arranged more than 250 orchestral scores ranging from Queen to Calamity Jane, Stravinsky and Stevie Wonder. Alongside this he began arranging and writing songs for children's collections (Big Blue Planet, Love Shone Down) and producing recordings and string arrangements for various artists (Sheila Walsh, Kim Hill, Matt Redman). He is also well known as a conductor and arranger for Songs of Praise. Recently Craig has collaborated with composer Tolga Kashif writing orchestrations for the RPO's Seo Taiji Symphony, the Classic FM chart-topping CD by saxophonist Tyler Rix, and the Genesis Suite which was premiered at the Barbican. He has been musical director of Young Voices UK for 13 years, bringing large school choirs together to play with a live band and solo artists, and currently conducts the Milton Keynes Community Choir, Hart and Soul Community Choir and the Milton Keynes Youth Choir. / Choeur SSA

from The Wild Swans Suite. Par KATS-CHERNIN ELENA. Eliza’s Aria is a classical aria from the ballet Wild Swans, composed by Uzbekistan composer Elena Kats-Chernin. The piece was first recorded by soprano Jane Sheldon and the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, and released on the ABC Classics label. This recording was subsequently used in the 2007 Lloyds TSB “For the Journey” television and cinema advertisements and also received extensive radio airplay in December 2007. It was also used as the basis for “The Journey Continues” a dance track by DJ Mark Brown, featuring Sarah Cracknell of Saint Etienne, which was released in February 2008. / Niveau : 3 / Pièce de concert / Date parution : 1905-07-01/ Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
