When writing his tuba concerto, Philip Sparke wanted to create a work which explored the many aspects of the instrument’s technical and vocal qualities but without resorting to caricature. The result is a concerto in two joined movements, which can both be programmed individually, that contains both many lyrical lines together with stunning virtuosic passages. An outstanding concerto that tuba players and brass band audiences alike will enjoy and applaud.

De technische en lyrische eigenschappen van het instrument komen in deze compositie optimaal tot hun recht. De componist wilde er namelijk zeker van zijn dat het werk écht een concerto voor tuba zou worden en dat de muziek zou passenbij het instrument in de solistenrol. De solostem in het tweedelige Tuba Concerto bestrijkt bijna drieënhalf octaaf. Beide delen kunnen afzonderlijk worden geprogrammeerd: een langzaam deel en een scherzo.

Philip Sparke schuf mit seinem Tuba Concerto ganz bewusst ein Stück, das der Tuba als Soloinstrument voll und ganz gerecht wird. Aus diesem Grund deckt die Solostimme fast dreieinhalb Oktaven ab und nutzt die technischen und klanglichen Qualitäten des Instruments voll und ganz aus. Das Konzert besteht aus zwei zusammenhängenden Sätzen, die beide einzeln aufgeführt werden können: einem langsamen Satz und einem Scherzo. Noten für eine Aufführung mit Tuba und Klavier sind ebenfalls erhältlich.

Tuba Concerto est une œuvre de commande pour le facteur allemand Miraphone, spécialisé dans les cuivres. Philip Sparke a composé et dédié cette pièce Markus Theinert, un ami de longue date, qui en a assuré la création le 30 avril 2006 Sigmaringen en Allemagne accompagné par le Brass Band Oberschwaben-Allgäu.L� �€™idée d’un concerto pour tuba a été longuement discutée entre le soliste et le compositeur dont le souci était de créer un véritable concerto développant un matériau parfaitement adapté au rôle solistique de l’instrument, sans tomber dans la caricature. Ainsi, la partie soliste couvre trois octaves et demie et exploite pleinement les qualitéstechniques et expressives de l’instrument.Tu ba Concerto est une composition en deux mouvements joints qui peuvent également être joués séparément. Le premier mouvement débute lentement puis s’accélère progressivement. La cadence annonce la réexposition du matériel thématique initial. Le second mouvement, écrit en forme de scherzo, semble plus résolu mais chemine vers plus de légèreté. La reprise du matériel thématique initial offre une conclusion efficace et puissante.Ce concerto est également disponible dans une version pour Tuba solo et Brass Band (AMP 173-030) et Tuba solo et Piano (AMP 187-401).

Artemis is the Greek goddess of hunting and forests. In western art she is often pictured with deer, lions or bears with a bow in her hand. The tempo of this march is stately and the themes are “concertante” in character making Artemis best suited as a concert march rather than a street march. Technically this march is not too difficult although at times some dexterous fingering is necessary. The trio melody is especially lyrical and offers various sections within the band the possibility to show off their skill in playing the expressive melody. This excellent new concert march is sure to become a classic and be performed time and time again.

Het tempo van deze mars is statig en de thema’s zijn concertant van karakter: Artemis is dus eerder geschikt als concertmars dan als loopmars. Technisch is dit werk niet erg lastig om spelen, al wordt af en toe wel wat vingervaardigheidvereist. De triomelodie is echter uitgesproken lyrisch en biedt diverse secties binnen het orkest de mogelijkheid om zich melodisch en expressief te etaleren. Een aangenaam klinkende en prima speelbare concertmars!

Artem is ist die griechische Göttin der Jagd und der Wälder. Jan Van der Roost ließ sich zum wiederholten Male von der griechischen Mythologie inspirieren und komponierte diesen Marsch mit gemäßigtem Tempo und konzertanten Themen. Obwohl technisch nicht sehr schwer, erfordert er doch stellenweise etwas Fingerfertigkeit. Der Trio-Teil ist jedoch besonders lyrisch und bietet verschiedenen Registern des Blasorchesters die Möglichkeit, sich in Melodie und Ausdruck zu beweisen. Kurz gesagt ist Artemis ein ausgezeichneter und gut spielbarer Konzertmarsch, der viele Blasorchester anspricht.

Arté mis est la déesse grecque de la nature sauvage et de la chasse. Dans l’art occidental, elle est souvent représentée armée d’un arc et de flèches et entourée de cerfs, de lions et d’ours. Évoluant sur un tempo majestueux et développant des thèmes au caractère concertant, Artemis s’inscrit pleinement dans la lignée des grandes marches de concert. Hormis quelques passages nécessitant une plus grande souplesse des doigts, elle ne contient que peu de difficultés techniques. Artemis est une pièce brillante qui convient au plus grand nombre d’Orchestres d’Harmonie.

Artemis è la Dea greca della natura selvatica e della caccia. Nella cultura occidentale, è spesso rappresentata armata di arco e frecce e circondata da cervi, leoni e orsi. Evolvendosi su un tempo maestoso e sviluppando temi centrali dal carattere concertante, Artemis rientra nella linea delle grandi marce da concerto. Ad eccezione di qualche passaggio che necessita una maggiore scioltezza delle dita, il brano contiene solo poche difficolt tecniche. Artemis è un pezzo brillante adatto alla maggior parte delle bande.

Lohengrin est le sixième opéra que Richard Wagner ait composé. Ecrit entre 1845 et 1848, créé en 1850, cette œuvre est basée sur l'histoire du « chevalier au cygne », provenant de la littérature médiévale allemande.
Lohengrin connut un succès immédiat et eut une grande importance dans la carrière musicale du compositeur. En effet, pour la première fois, on sent le langage musical de Richard Wagner se libérer définitivement de la tradition classique et montrer pleinement un caractère romantique.
Dans une lettre adressée à Liszt datée de 1853, Richard Wagner dit: «Je m’aperçois que dans Lohengrin, j’ai oublié une indication de mouvement, omission que je n’ai constatée que lorsque je l’ai dirigé. C’est dans le chœur nuptial en ré majeur, après le second solo des huit femmes, les huit dernières mesures avant le premier mouvement : ici, le mouvement doit être considérablement ralenti, plus qu’à la première entrée en ré majeur; cela doit se faire tranquillement, solennellement, sinon l’intention est manquée.»
Le chœur nuptial dont Richard Wagner fait mention marque le début du troisième acte de l'opéra, lorsqu'Elsa et son époux pénètrent dans la chambre nuptiale où ils se déclarent leur amour : `que les bruits de la fête s'éteignent, que vos cœurs s'enivrent! Que la chambre parfumée parée pour l'amour vous accueille à présent''.
Aujourd' hui, cette marche nuptiale accompagne traditionnellement les mariés à l’entrée ou la sortie de l’Eglise en Occident. Elle est traditionnellement jouée à l’orgue, mais peut être jouée par un orchestre. Elle est parfois appelée “la marche des fiançailles (ou des fiancés).

Guitarra y quinteto u Orquesta Cuerda (Guitar and String Quintet or String Orchestra)

SKU: BO.B.3452

Concierto de Otono. Composed by Xavier Benguerel. Plucked Instruments. Duration 12:00. Published by Editorial de Musica Boileau (BO.B.3452).

English comments: Despite the difficulties that he claims to have in conceiving a guitaristic language, Xavier Benguerel is composer notorious for his prolific guitar writing. If in the course of its history the language of this instrument has oscillated between melodic writing with violonistic roots and a fundamentally pianistic harmonic writing. Benguerel achieves a perfect balance between both tendencies. This opportune convergence allows the performer to employ a wide array of markedly contrasted virtuoso techniques and instrumental resources and at the same time presents the listener a guitaristic discourse with a musical richness that is perfectly balanced with the string quartet or string orchestra.

The Autumn Concerto gathers together, from a renewed perspective, some of the best discoveries the composer has offered throughout his production for guitar. Its open dialog, formal structure, instrumental efficiency and textural variety make this work very appealing when it comes to including it in a concert programme.
--Jaume Torrent. Barcelona, March 2006

Comentarios del Espanol: Pese a las dificultades que confiesa tener para concebir un lenguaje guitarristico, Xavier Benguerel se ha convertido en un compositor notoriamente prolifico en su produccion para guitarra. Si a lo largo de la historia el lenguaje de este instrumento ha basculado entre la escritura melodica de raices violinisticas y la armonica de fundamentos pianisticos, Benguerel consigue un perfecto equilibrio entre ambas tendencias. Esta feliz confluencia posibilita al interprete gozar de un despliegue de tecnicas virtuosisticas y recursos instrumentales marcadamente contrastados y, a la vez, proporciona al oyente un discurso guitarristico con una plenitud sonora perfectamente equilibrada con las propuestas del cuarteto o de la orquesta de cuerda.

El Concierto de Otono recoge -con vision renovada- algunas de los mejores hallazgos que el compositor nos ha ido ofreciendo a lo largo de su produccion para guitarra y su caracter dialogante, estructura formal, eficacia instrumental y variedad de texturas hacen de esta una obra de gran atractivo a la hora de formar parte de la programacion de un concierto.

Tran scription by Matti Rantanen for accordion of Einojuhani Rautavaara's Icons (1955) / Matti Rantasen transkriptio harmonikalle Einojuhani Rautavaara pianosarjasta Ikonit (1955). Rautavaara's early piano composition, the suite Ikonit (Icons; 1955) shows great variety in the young composer's style. The most traditionally Neoclassical movements are 'Kaksi maalaispyhimysta' (Two Country Saints), which harks back to the Pelimannit style, and the fast-moving finale 'Arkkienkeli Mikael kukistaa Antikristuksen' (Archangel Michael defeats the Antichrist). Another dimension in this music is Orthodox mysticism, which breaks forth in the opening section 'Jumalaidin kuolema' (The Death of the Mother of God).

With Adagietto Jacob de Haan demonstrates his ability to write in all kinds of styles. A sense of pure calm emanates from the flowing main melody. The tasteful orchestration fully supports the harmonic suspense as the piece progresses towards a fantastic climax at the end.

Mit Adagietto demonstriert Jacob de Haan einmal mehr seine besondere Fähigkeit, in den unterschiedlichsten Musikstilen zu komponieren. Die flie�ende Hauptmelodie strahlt ein Gefühl der absoluten Ruhe aus. Vor allem die geschmackvolle Orchestration unterstützt die spannungsgeladenen Harmonien und führt diese bis zum genüsslichen Höhepunkt am Ende des Werkes.

Lâ??Adagietto de Jacob de Haan témoigne de sa parfaite aisance dans la composition de pièces de styles très divers. De la fluidité du thème, écrit dans le style de la musique baroque, naît un incomparable sentiment de quiétude et la finesse de lâ??orchestration vient pleinement soutenir la tension sonore qui émane du cheminement progressif vers un finale intense et brillant.
