Fl(pic).2cl(1.Ebcl, 2.bcl)-pno.hp-vla.vc.db ensemble - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q43250 For ensemble. Composed by Julian Anderson. This edition: study score. Music Of Our Time. Downloadable, Study score. Duration 19 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q43250. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q43250). The starting point was the collected letters of Vincent van Gogh. In spite of the tragedies for which van Gogh is best known, his letters are filled with joyous exuberance for the practical considerations of his work: what he will paint next and, most importantly, what colours he will use. For Julian Anderson, it seems the painter relishes â€˜the sheer stuff of which his art is madeâ€™. In Van Gogh Blue, Anderson relishes the sheer stuff of which his own art is made. Itâ€™s a very physical, highly contrasted work about the joy of sound. Instrumental colour plays a large role, and Andersonâ€™s use of two mobile clarinetists allows extra colour as their sound moves through the acoustic space of the hall.

Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q41754). The title of Julian Andersonâ€™s first piece for guitar refers to a painting by Joan MirÃ³ in which the dominant element is a vivid blue. In MirÃ³'s work details such as guitar strings, the orange of a Catalan barretina and a smoking pipe are present and theses are reflected in the composers work. This piece is part of a triptych of works by Anderson relating to the colour blue, beginning with his violin concerto, In lieblicher BlÃ¤ue, and ending with Van Gogh Blue.

The work was written especially for Carolin Widmann.

String quartet - difficult - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q771471 ‘hana no hanataba’. Composed by Julian Anderson. Downloadable. Duration 23 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q771471. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q771471). My 3rd String Quartet is in six contrasted movements. Certain musical figures recur across the work, but there are few themes as such. The main emphasis is on contrast of mood, texture, harmony, pacing and timing. Unlike many of my works this quartet had no extra-musical inspiration, and in principle should have no subtitle. Certain features already present in my music became more prominent in this new work: modes (limited collections of pitches) have always helped me to focus musical character, but here a sense of key note for each mode became much more pronounced, as did the difference between modes for each section of the work. A sort of hybrid key-system emerged (even with equivalents of major and minor) which is not normal tonality, nor does it aim to imitate it. Unlike tonality this key-system includes noises, extended performance techniques and intervals outside Western tuning as available resources. What I hope it does is to focus the listening experience onto different musical areas, to encourage a sense of both modulation from one area to another and to give the music a sense of goal. No conscious knowledge of this is needed when listening: the music should communicate directly on its own.Here, then, is this collection of six musical colours, related and unrelated, different yet belonging together, variable yet in a set order. Hence the subtitle, chosen both for both its sound and its sense: ‘hana no hanataba’ meaning, in Japanese, ‘bouquet of flowers’.A brief description:1)Moderately fast. Short droplets of sounds gather increasing momentum. 2)Very fast. Canons and bells at different speeds.3)Very slow – fast – very slow – very fast – very slow. The main slow movement and its main scherzo. An emphasis on non-tempered tunings and on inhaling and exhaling waves of sound. The slow sections feature florid melodic writing. In the exuberant scherzo competing duos and trios create imaginary folk music.4)Extremely fast/extremely slow. Open strings and harmonics fuse into a single string instrument – like a sort of large resonating Medieval tromba marina.5)Very fast. A variation on movement 2). Variation, Schoenberg told Cage, is just a sort of repetition ‘with some things changed and others not.’6)Slow - Very Fast - Fast – Slow. The opening calm harmonies and florid melodies evoke movement 3) in different music. The fast part features one overt theme: a fanfare-like call to attention which is subject to extensive development. There is much use of non-Western tuning. At its climax the music freezes into a frieze – a wall of sound standing in front of the audience with increasing obstinacy and certainty as the work grinds towards its cadence.

She Hears is a study in listening; Toucher is a celebration in musical texture and colour. Sight Lines is a short, hyperactive study in near chaos. Nuits presents the sounds and perfumes of the night. Alba is a celebration of the sounds and sensations of dawn and the return of sunlight. Finally, Coda is a brief, intimate summary of the harmonic and melodic worlds of the whole cycle.

Downloadable, choral score. Duration 10 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q52527. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q52527). Latin.Magnificat is a tribute to the unaccompanied motets of favourite composers from several eras â€“ in particular those of Dufay, the Eton Choirbook, Robert Carver, Lassus and Bach. The work is therefore full of contrast in texture, harmony, mood and pacing, and exploits the resources of unaccompanied chorus in a manner not only analogous to those already mentioned but also to ensemble or orchestral writing. Naturally â€“ given the sentiments of the text â€“ the mood is predominantly joyful and exuberant; but the darker implications of certain phrases in the text are not ignored. Towards the end there is a big choral explosion on one of the traditional plainsong chants for the Magnificat, before the work subsides into a coda of calm serenity. Magnificat was commissioned by the ORA choir. It is dedicated to the French composer Betsy Jolas, in celebration of her 90th birthday, and in equal celebration of our mutual love of many choral composers mentioned above.

Duration 9 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q54420. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q54420). English.Although I had already set separate Latin versions of both the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis, this is the first time Iâ€™ve made a setting in English of both texts for use at Evensong. I have often attended Evensong in the Cambridge college chapels: itâ€™s a service whose meanings and spirituality are quite different from any other, and it has its own special atmosphere. Evensongâ€™s coupling of Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis texts is fascinating: the exuberant celebration of the former contrasts so marvellously with the intimate reflections of the latter. In my Evening Canticles I have tried to make the most of that contrast. The Magnificat is forceful, replete with sprung rhythms, polymeter, and bright harmonies showing off the brilliance of the choir. Some use is made (especially near the opening) of free rhythms in which every singer performs a passage at their own speed, creating a spray of sound. The Nunc Dimittis, on the other hand, is predominantly clear and transparent, even austere, allowing the singers to shape melodic lines with expression and lyricism, as befits the text. I was enormously excited to be invited to compose my Evening Canticles for Andrew Nethsingha and the Choir of St Johnâ€™s College, Cambridge. I want to thank all the performers for giving the work such a splendid launch, and for the magnificent recording on this CD. The work is dedicated to Andrew Nethsingha. JA 2019.
