Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen 3 EPIGRAMS'3 Epigrams' (1963) came into existence following my piece for chamber orchestra 'Chronos' (1962). My purpose with these pieces (and others of the same period) was to explore the sound experiences of serialism in space and time but without using the original and fundamental substance of serialism - the tone row. The chromatic space was constituted by four identical and complementary tone columns (established by transposition). The time was divided into 25 different sizes, plasticly conceived and graphically notated. These distances were then divided in 25 new distances in the same proportions etc ... into smaller and smaller durations completely hierarchally carried through. This time division, 'rhythm', de-termines the gradual or sudden shifts from one tone column to another.The 3 Epigrams became a little play of my own with this material and the work is, therefore, quite clear to read and easy to play - a kind of bagatelle, really.I am now afraid that a classic situation is emerging: If this programme note is any longer it will take more time to read this than it will take to play the three pieces.Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen.

From Judas Maccabeus comes a sacred reworking of one of Handel's most beloved melodic creations.

This hymn-anthem is based on a new tune of the composer's own devising. The 1806 text is given a lyrical treatment rather than the usual rollicking one, and the result is expressive and effective. The first stanza is in unison, the second split between TB and SA alternating. The third stanza is set for SATB voices. The fourth and final stanza has lower voices in unison and sopranos descanting. Duration: 4:10.

Soprano voice & basso continuo

Composed by Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni. Edited by Michael Talbot. Voice (Soprano) & Basso Continuo. Full score and parts. Duration 7 minutes. Edition HH Music Publishers #HH148-FSP. Published by Edition HH Music Publishers (HH.HH148-FSP).

ISBN 9790708041993.

This cantata, from an important manuscript in Berlin containing 18 Albinoni cantatas for soprano and continuo, is a rare example, for this composer, of a Sujetkantate - the term coined by the music historian Eugen Schmitz for a cantata that re-enacts an episode taken from mythology or history. Here, the subject is Ariadne, who awakes to find her lover, Theseus, gone. Rushing to the shore, she sees his departing ship and curses his faithlessness - though not without betraying her continuing love for him. Albinoni rises to the occasion in music of power and eloquence.

Reviewers, trying to find a label for Godfrey's music, will compare him to Debussy, Ravel, Stravinsky, even Barber, using words such as lyrical, lush, and always tonal and melodic. 2004 saw the release of an all-Godfrey CD, including String Quartet No. 2, by the Cassatt String Quartet, an album that the New Yorker hailed as one of the 10 best of that year. Formerly available only on a rental basis, String Quartet No. 2 is now available for sale. Real sensual warmth, with a touch of the sensibility of Schoenberg's Transfigured Nightà These very touching works are completely tonal and basically pick up from the point where music was derailed some four score years ago... It is remarkable that music like this is being written, recorded, and widely celebrated. Robert Reilly, Surprised by Beauty: A Listener's Guide to the Recovery of Modern Music (Ignatius Press).

In December of 2020, after almost a year of living socially distanced, isolated, and not knowing when we would return to life as we knew it, I began to think about what life used to look like. I realized that I sometimes might have taken all the beautiful things in my life for granted. Personally, the year 2020 was a time of loss where someone close to me left, and at the same time, I was also able to have other successes. This dichotomy inspired me to realize that there is hope in all that we do; it is how we perceive life. Boundless Hope represents my thoughts, feelings, and emotions during this time. The piece is roughly based on the Lydian mode, introducing the raised fourth degree in m. 2 of the mallet percussion and then at m. 15 in the main melody. The Lydian mode naturally gives a sense of positivity, hopefulness, inspiration, and heavenly colors. That was my exact intention with this piece: using the mode to define the mood showing gratitude for all that we have, and yearning to return to normalcy with a new and fresh perspective. Measure 30 should be slightly faster, followed by a rit. into the grandiose recapitulation of the theme in m. 38. At m. 45, the wind chimes should start before the clarinet entrance, with the subsequent measures representing dark and warm colors. This piece is very personal to me, and I appreciate you playing the composition.

Vesperpsalm. Composed by Johann Adolf Hasse. Edited by Wolfgang Hochstein. Arranged by Wolfgang Hochstein. Laudate Pueri (Frauenchor) (Psalm 112). Sacred vocal music. Set of Orchestra Parts. Composed circa 1737-1756. Duration 25 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 40.700/19. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.4070019).

ISBN 9790007220501. Key: A major. Language: Latin.

Venezian version The Laudate pueri was composed between 1735 and 1749 for the Ospedale degl'Incurabili in Venice. Since the Ospedale was an institution for the musical training of gifted girls and young women, the vocal parts are scored for female voices. As Director of Music at the Saxon-Polish Court of Dresden, Hasse was also responsible for church music, and therefore he arranged works which were originally written for the Ospedale.. Now that the Dresden version has already been published in the Hasse-Werk-Ausgabe, the original composition is printed here for the first time. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.4070000.

Cantata for Oculi Sunday. Composed by Gottfried August Homilius. This edition: paperback. Erwachet, Ihr Christen (Kantate). Sacred vocal music, Cantatas, Lent and Passiontide. Full score. HoWV II.57. Duration 14 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 37.219/00. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.3721900).

ISBN 9790007142629. Text language: German.

Homilius is known for having always searched for new forms in order to avoid any schematic pattern. Thus, one looks in vain in the present cantata for arias. The opening choir is introduced by two choral groups: One calls to take up the fight against the devil, while the other fearfully hesitates and finally, in the chorale Jesus Christus, wohn uns bei agrees to join in. Following each of the three stanzas of the embellished chorale, in a recitative the hesitant one is given courage before he also takes up arms, in a confident final chorus.
