Commisioned by Jesper Juul Sorensen Written for Jesper Juul Sorensen and Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen, provided with funds from the Danish State Art Foundation. Programme note: The trombone concerto has been given the slightly cryptic title Twelve to remember twelve to come. The title refers to twelve irregular beats that are struck at the start of the piece by the percussionist on three clanging bottles. The figure 12 later becomes the most important building-block in the rhythm of the piece, and the twelve beats from the beginning return right at the end. The concerto waswritten for the trombone virtuoso Jesper Juul Sorensen, originally for trombone and large chamber ensemble. It was given its first performance in 2001 by Jesper Juul Sorensen and Athelas Sinfonietta Copenhagen. Later the piece was reworked for trombone and orchestra - a version given its first performance by Jesper Juul Sorensen and the Aarhus Symphony Orchestra in 2003. Peter Bruun.

Jazz Chords On Piano -2 by Tormod Vinsand (2017). This book is a follow-up on Jazz Chords on Piano (WH32971) and it is definitely an advantage if you have familiarised yourself with the techniques and terms used in Jazz Chords on Piano . There are many ways in which to play jazz on a piano. In Jazz Chords on Piano I describe some guidelines for how to prepare accompaniment and melody playing, but admittedly, there are of course many other ways to play or other techniques to use. In Jazz Chords on Piano - 2 I have chosen to focus on four typical techniques: Part 1 - Playing Arpeggio in left hand Part 2 - 4-stacked chords in a piano movement Part 3 - Left-hand chords Part 4 -Overlying triads when accompanying To illustrate the various techniques, I have made compositions that are stylistically adjusted so that the various techniques make musical sense and are playable. (Tormod Vinsand) Tormod Vinsand (born 1958) has a Master's Degree in Musicology from University of Copenhagen. Since 1988 Tormod has been a jazz piano lecturer at The Rhythmic Music Conservatory, Copenhagen, The Institute of Musicology at University of Copenhagen, and the Royal Danish Academy of Music, Copenhagen. The material you fi nd in this book has been used at the above three educational institutions and is primarily targeted to music students that do not have the piano as their primary instrument at these schools. But others may also benefi t from this book, provided you have an elementary theoretical background in music. Since 2013 Tormod has also been Music School Manager at the Rødovre School of Music.

Pr ogramme Note:

As a young professional player in the 1960s, my work as a double bassist with chamber ensembles and small orchestras took me all over the world. This presented an unparalleledopportunity to scour libraries and archives wherever I went. Long before the advent of the photocopier and e-mail, research was far more challenging than it is today. Eastern Europe was particularly difficult to access, withmanycollections kept under lock and key for all but a few hours a week. One quickly found colleagues who were keen to share information gleaned in passing, even though they had no specific interest in one's own particularspecialism (it is so often the peripheral topics that fascinate as much as the main subject under investigation, and one can quickly be side-tracked into political and social issues that have only slender bearing on the job inhand!).

In the early 1970s James Brown, the then sub-principal oboist of the English Chamber Orchestra with whom I was working at the time, stumbled across a small collection of double bass manuscripts at the RoyalDanish State Library in Copenhagen. They were by Franz Anton Leopold Keÿper (b. c.1756, d. Copenhagen 7 June 1815), a double bassist of Dutch origin who worked as principal of the Royal Chapel Orchestra in Copenhagen.Keÿper's son was the bassoonist Franz Jacob August Keÿper (1792-1859). The collection included a number of concertos, some chamber music, and various naïve fragments. Although hardly the work of a Mozart or Haydn,the style is characteristic of the period. For an instrument such as the double bass, whose 18th century solo repertoire is largely written for tunings that are no longer in everyday use, Keÿper's music is easily approachablein its.

Oboe and Orchestra

SKU: HL.14028041

Composed by Poul Ruders. Music Sales America. Classical. Score. Composed 2002. 76 pages. Edition Wilhelm Hansen #WH30497. Published by Edition Wilhelm Hansen (HL.14028041).

ISBN 9788759810682. 12.0x16.5x0.533 inches.

The Small concerto for solo oboe and chamber orchestra was commissioned by The Royal Library of Copenhagen for the inauguration of a concert hall located at the new library annex, the so-called Black Diamond, September 1999. The work as such focuses more on the contemplative and sonorously introvert, rather than more virtuosity; it is in four movements, what could be called four little tone-poems on (and inspired by) the names of the four moon craters known as: Lake of Dream - Ocean of Storms - Sea of Tranquillity - Lake of Death, four enigmatic and deeply fascinating ancient conceptions of the landscape on this our closest, but at the same time most legendary and myth-shrouded celestial body. The work was composed in 1998 for Athelas-Sinfonietta Copenhagen and Swedish obo virtuoso Helen Jahren. The work was dedicated to Helen Jahren.

Piano

SKU: SA.41342

Composed by Stenhammar. Suites, Original Works. Reprint Source: Copenhagen: Nordisk Musikforlag, n.d.(ca.1900). Plate N.F. 8309. Post-Romantic, Scandinavian. Piano. Composed 1895. 20 pages. Duration 13 minutes. Petrucci Library Press #41342. Published by Petrucci Library Press (SA.41342).

ISBN 9781608741342. 9.5 x 12.5 inches.

Stenhammar' s 1895 set of three fantasies are among the finest of the Swedish composer's early-period works. They are fairly Brahms-like in their musical language, but nevertheless bear the individual stamp of this composer, whose music stands as a unique voice in a Scandinavian world dominated by figures such as Grieg and Sibelius. This new score is a digitally-restored reissue of the one first issued around 1900 by Nordisk Musikforlag of Copenhagen. Unlike so many of the on-demand scores now available, this one comes with all the pages and the images have been thoroughly checked to make sure it is readable. The score is beautifully printed on large size (9 x 12) off-white stock with a quality cover, all saddle-stitched in the traditional sheet music binding. As with all PLP scores a percentage of each sale is donated to the amazing online archive of free music scores and recordings, IMSLP - Petrucci Music Library.

Improvised Music - Essays And Interviews by Jakob Thorkild Overgaard.

From the preface:

This book is the child of my extensive personal experience
as performerof musical improvisation. I have
a large number of concerts, recordings and bands in
my baggage, and throughout my career as performer
I have reflected much on the music as such, its origins,
and its effects onperformer and listener alike.
In addition to this, my M.A. in Music from Copenhagen
University provided me with a theoretical foundation
which has sharpened my reflections on music
and fostered an interestinthe spoken word.
As its point of departure, this book will attempt a discussion
of improvised music after 1968, as a concept
and as an actual performing art. I shall use the terms
‘freeimpr ovisation’ or ’ freely improvised music’ – as I
think that they are the best, although I am of course
fully aware that there may be several other adequate
terms for this music...

. ..There are sections solely based on my views and analyses as well as sections taking their starting point in the views of other writers and artists.

 

Besides, the book containsinterviews and communications with prominent performers of improvised music and theorists such as, inter alia, Danish Peter Ole Jørgensen, Swedish Raymond Strid, Danish Vagn E. Olsson and Torben Sangild, Postdoc at theDepartment of Arts and Cultural Studies, Copenhagen University.
