Spar ingly scored, these miniatures are full of surprise and delight. The work consists of nine short sections played continuously. In Mixture 1 Incantation, linear counterpoint for high woodwind and low strings is interspersed by distinctive brass figures and percussion motives. A brief Solo for double bass leads into Interlude 1 where harmonic writing is broken by short woodwind fragments before Duet where a simple rhythmic cell is developed by the brass instruments. Mixture 2 Exultation alternate block chords with active rhythmic activity. The Trio for flute, clarinet and percussion is followed by Interlude 2 where woodwind and string counterpoint is interrupted by static chords. After a short Quartet for trumpet and strings, Mixture 3 Apotheosis combines the techniques of the earlier movements. An original and rewarding work.

Invictus: A Passion addresses one of the world’s most powerful stories through the lens of the modern world. The texts, written or inspired by women, describe not only human suffering and persecution but also the human capacity for love and humility in the face of tyranny. Composer Howard Goodall is uniquely suited to bring these texts to life with music of emotional clarity and sweeping force. This movement, scored for soprano solo, SATB choir and piano, expresses the unimaginable pain felt by a mother seeing her child torn away from her at a slave auction. To this harrowing account are appended the words of William Wilberforce, spoken in the House of Commons on 18th April 1791, “You may choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know.” Duration 6:47.

The opening movement of Bach's chorale cantata on Luther's In deepest need I cry to you BWV 38, which was composed for the 21st Sunday after Trinity Sunday, belongs to a group of cantatas whose opening choruses are not concertante but have been kept in the style of a motet; the instruments merely amplify the vocal parts. The archaic character of the movement is emphasized by the addition of a trombone quartet. An exciting recitative and an aria full of pungent harmonies is followed by an entirely unusual recitative in which the chorale melody forms the bass foundation for the vocal part. A second aria - which is no less unusual -is a trio which is only accompanied by the continuo; it leads into the concluding chorale which, pursuant to the 1st line of text Ob bei uns ist der Sunden viel, already begins with a brusque dissonance.

Language: German. Text: Schindler, Peter / Dieterich, Babette. Text: Peter Schindler, Babette Dieterich.

Courage, tolerance and conciliation - this is the message of a sweet and sharp, thrilling love story. Based loosely on Shakespeare and his famous tragedy Romeo and Juliet, a prince, smitten with love, and a courageous baroness bring foreign cultures and two hostile families together in a dramatic happy end. Musically, Konig Keks thrives on contrasts: Whereas the music of Krokantia borrows from the world of operetta, the music of the Chili islands is fiery and rhythmic. On the one hand, a small salon orchestra, and on the other a band produce a diversified sound. An experienced pianst can accompany a performance of the piece alone. Konig Keks offers ample musical as well as scenic performance possibilities for people of all ages. Score and part available separately - see item CA.1282000.

For the 2nd Epiphany Sunday 1725, Bach composed the cantata O God, what glut of care and pain. It forms part of the annual cycle of chorale cantatas. In the large-scale opening movement, a choral setting full of anguish with expansive orchestral sections, the bass presents the cantus firmus in segments, reinforced by one trombone. This is followed directly by the second chorale verse in a four-part setting in which, however, each chorale line is interrupted by a short recitative (each one sung by a different voice). The bass, who closes the recitative, also sings the following continuo aria which is rich in melismatic passages. The second aria is a duet expanded into a quartet setting by the addition of oboes d'amore and continuo; it leads into the closing chorale containing a wealth of transitions. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3100300.

ISBN 9790007309626. English. Text: Broadbridge, Edward.

Danish composer John Høybye enjoys great acclaim at home and abroad, not just for his music but also for his work as a (choral) conductor and arranger.Presenti ng a medium level of difficulty, Hope. Easter Music is suitable for a good amateur choir. The mix of a beautiful choral sound and rhythmic intensity in jazz-inspired phrases is “trademark Høybye”. Primarily written for four voices (SATB), the choral writing subdivides at certain, particularly expressive passages to create six- or eight-part harmonies. In addition, the male voices are challenged by several excellently scored four-part passages (TTBB without female voices). The short male voice solo can be sung instead by the choir if necessary.The instrumental quartet is given ample scope for improvisation. While each of the eight movements has its own unique character, the work forms a cohesive whole. Based on a text by Edward Broadbridge, the movements are linked by the theme of “hope” as well as by recurring musical motifs and themes. This not only makes the piece easier to rehearse, but also ensures its popularity with audiences.

At the time Gervais composed his Grand Motet Miserere he held a post as director of the Chappell Royale in the Court of Louis XIV. This was one of the most important positions in music in France at that time. In addition to operas, he was highly regarded for compositions in this representative genre of sacred music until the end of the Ancien Regime. The setting of Psalm 50 consists of a succession of individual movements (choruses, soli, and duets through quartets), which, thanks to his experience with works for the stage, the composer was able shape dramatically not only with respect to the texts of individual movements, but also with a view to the large chorus which concludes the work.

Composed by Ferenc Farkas. EMB Leggiero. Educational Tool. Book Only. Composed 1963. 132 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #EMBZ4330. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (BT.EMBZ4330).

This is one of the best-known and most frequently performed works of Ferenc Farkas (1905-2000). It was written in 1961 for 4-part string orchestra (with an ad libitum double bass part), and can be performed by a string quartet. The secret of the popularity of this 4-movement composition, which follows the structure of the classical symphonies, is probably to be found in its transparent sound, the clarity of its form and its fresh, vigorous character.

My Concerto for Horn and String Orchestra (1993) was commissioned by the Bravo! Colorado Music Festival at Vail*Beaver Creek, the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and French Hornist, David Jolley; made possible by a grant from the Meet The Composer/Reader’s Digest Commissioning Program, in partnership with the National endowment for the Arts and the Lila Wallace Reader’s Digest Fund. The work is approximately 14 minutes in duration. Its premiere took place in Vail at the Bravo! Colorado Music Festival with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra under Lawrence Leighton Smith conducting, and David Jolley, solo horn.The Concerto is in one movement with five section, including a solo cadenza. Although the work is concerto-like in the exploration of a wide range of technical and dramatic possibilities of the horn—culminating in a highly virtuosic cadenza—the piece can also be heard as a “tone poem” with the horn cast as the “hero.”Yet, while I think of the solo horn as an heroic figure, I have very much enjoyed the interplay and dialogue between horn and strings and I allowed the character and nature of the horn to influence the strings and vice-versa. For instance, in the cadenza the solo horn line sometimes breaks into two or three parts, projecting two or three voices (a type of solo writing usually associated with strings, not winds); and on several occasions I have used the violas, divided in three, together with the solo horn, to suggest the sound of a quartet of horns. For me, the combination of solo horn and string orchestra is rich and evocative, as is the unique nature of the horn; its warmth and color; its dramatic legato as well as its pungent staccato; the sheer breadth of its sound.The Concerto is dedicated to hornist David Jolley, for whom it was written.
