Trilogy on
B-A-C-H (2017) uses as
its musical material a
familiar four-note theme:
the letters B-A-C-H (the
last name of Johann
Sebastian Bach) treated
as a musical motive:
B-flat, A, C, B-natural
(H in German note
naming). Starting with
Bach himself, this theme
has been used by a truly
enormous number of
composers over the
centuries. Most B-A-C-H
themed works (at least
those for organ), tend to
be extremely
contrapuntal, likely
taking their cue from
much of Bach's own organ
music. This piece
explicitly goes in the
other direction and use
the theme primarily
motivically/melodically
and as a generating force
for the kind of mixed
modality that is typical
of Cooman's music. The
first movement is an
energetic march. The
second movement is a
lyric meditation
containing both an arioso
and a short
quasi-passacaglia, in
which the B-A-C-H motive
repeats slowly in the
pedals. The last movement
is a free fantasia: the
motive appears both in
chorale-like long notes
and as a fast, turning
figure. Instrumentation:

9790200425192. 9 x 12
inches. Bicinia -
unaccompanied duos - have
been known to us from the
fifteenth century
onwards. So quite early
on it was customary tu
practise this type of
musical exercise, which
later, especially during
the Romantic period,
achieved great popularity
as the duo or duett.
Equal numbers of this
sort of instrumental duo
were composed for nearly
all wind and string
instruments. On the other
hand, only a small amount
of compositions for two
trumpets have come down
to us. In order to play
any music which
progresses beyond pure
fanfare on a natural
(valueless) trumpet, it
is necessary to make use
of the clarion register
(the top third of the
natural harmonic). And if
such a melody is to be
accompanied by a second
part, only the few
natural notes lying below
it are left, or else this
high register itself,
which calls for great
virtuosity on the part of
the trumpeter. As well as
this, we must remember
the fact that
trumpet-playing was only
allowed for the
trumpeters of a royal
court, army, staff, or
for the field-trumpeter
of a prince, plus a few
council, city, and church
musicians, who were bound
by strict guild and
corporation rules. Thus
in spite of the
preference for its
festive sound, the spread
and handing down of
trumpet music was almost
reduced to nothing under
these circumstances. As
well as this, pride of
place and profession
rivalry and envy amongst
musicians contributed in
large part. In England
the situation was
somewhat freer. Here
pretty little trumpet
duos originated,
including, amongst
others, those written by
Handel for his
master-trumpeter Valentin
Snow and the Royal
Sergeant-trumpeters of
the Shore family. An
especially happy
exception was the diocese
of Olmiitz. Here there
was a capable group of
musicians of the chapel
royal with the
brilliantly talented
group of trumpeters and
the field-trumpeter Pavel
Vajvanovsky, who also
composed himself. These
trumpeters in the service
of his prince-bishop
played many sacred and
secular pieces, all for
several instruments. It
was for them also that
Heinrich Ignaz Franz
Biber wrote the 12 double
trumpet sonatas we
present here. On the
other hand, the
representatives of the
authorities in Germany
ensured strict
observation of all edicts
and regulations. Even the
celebrated Bach-trumpeter
and towm-piper Gottfried
Reiche was never allowed
to be portrayed with a
proper trumpet due to the
priveleges of court and
field trumpeters. In
order to represent him as
one of the greatest
masters of his time and
art, however, the painter
placed an instrument
similar to a
corno-di-caccia in his
hand, together with a
sheet with a small piece
for virtuoso clarion.
When we try in spite of
these difficulties and
adverse circumstances to
gather a collection of
musically valuable and
characteristic examples
of popular pieces for two
trumpets from the
seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries, it
is in the first, place in
order to acquaint modern
trumpeters with something
of the wealth of music,
which can also be well
played on a modern
trumpet with valves. The
originally used trumpets
correspond to modern ones
in the keys of C and D,
but this does not mean
that many of the pieces
cannot be transposed to a
more comfortable
register. On top of this,
we have tried to give a
picture of the baroque
court and field
trumpeter, as well as of
the mysterious clarion
trumpeter, with the help
of musically popular
material. The origin of
most of the pieces used
is no longer clearly
discernable. In most
cases we possess second-
or third-hand copies
which have been handed
down, and show signs of
frequent use. A few cases
where modernization of
the second part obviously
did not take place until
the invention of stops,
have been re-shaped into
their supposed original
form. A series of further
dynamic details were
left, and marked as
optional suggestions in
brackets. Kurt

H. Trevor -
Author. The
B.A.C.H. motif
has been known and used
for centuries, but
enjoyed a great revival
in the late 19th century
as composers paid homage
to the composer J.S.
Bach. It derives from the
German nomenclature, and
is expressed in standard
notation as
Bb-A-C-B.
The
Fantasia And
Fugue On
B.A.C.H. is one
of the most famous Organ
works of Franz
Liszt (1811-1886).
The piece was intended
for the inauguration of
the famous Ladegast Organ
at Merseburg Cathedral,
but sadly, it wasn't
finished in time.
Liszt then
revised the work in 1870
and produced the version
that survives today. A
well-loved piece, no
organist's library
iscomplete without it.

inches. The ancient
Egyptian empire began
around 3100 B.C. and
continued for over 3000
years until Alexander the
Great conquered the
country in 332 B.C. Over
the centuries, the
Egyptian empire grew and
flourished into a highly
developed society. They
invented hieroglyphics,
built towering pyramids
(including the Great
Pyramid of Giza, the
oldest of the Seven
Wonders of the World),
and the created many
household items we still
use today, including
toothbrushes, toothpaste,
eyeliner, black ink, and
the forerunner of
modern-day paper.
Included among their
achievements were a
series of highly
developed funerary
practices and beliefs in
the Afterlife. As the
average lifespan of an
Egyptian hovered around
30 years, living past the
death of oneAs physical
body was a legitimate
concern. Egyptians
believed that upon death,
their souls would
undertake a harrowing
journey through the
Netherworld. If they
survived the horrific
creatures and arduous
trials that awaited them,
then their souls would be
reunified with their
bodies (hence the need to
preserve the body through
mummification) and live
forever in a perfect
version of the life they
had lived in Egypt. To
achieve this, Egyptians
devised around 200
magical spells and
incantations to aid souls
on the path to the
Afterlife. These spells
are collectively called
The Book of the Dead.
Particular spells would
be chosen by the family
of the deceased and
inscribed on the tombAs
walls and scrolls of
papyrus, as well as on a
stone scarab placed over
the deceasedAs heart.
Subsequent collections of
spells and mortuary
texts, such as The Book
of Gates, assisted a soul
in navigating the twelve
stages of the
Netherworld. Not only did
these spells protect and
guide the soul on this
dangerous path, but they
also served as a
safeguard against any
unbecoming behavior an
Egyptian did while alive.
For instance, if a person
had robbed another while
alive, there was a spell
that would prevent the
soulAs heart from
revealing the truth when
in the Hall of Judgment.
Rites for the Afterlife
follows the path of a
soul to the Afterlife. In
Inscriptions from the
Book of the Dead
(movement 1), the soul
leaves the body and
begins the journey,
protected by spells and
incantations written on
the tombAs walls. In
Passage though the
Netherworld (movement 2),
the soul is now on a
funerary barque, being
towed through the
Netherworld by four of
the regionAs inhabitants.
We hear the soul slowly
chanting incantations as
the barque encounters
demons, serpents,
crocodiles, lakes of
fire, and other terrors.
The soul arrives at The
Hall of Judgment in
movement 3. Standing
before forty-two divine
judges, the soul
addresses each by name
and gives a A!negative
confessionA(r) connected
to each judge (i.e. A!I
did not rob,A(r) A!I did
not do violence,A(r) and
so on). Afterwards, the
soulAs heart is put on a
scale to be weighed
against a feather of
MaAat, the goddess of
truth. If the heart
weighs more than the
feather, it will be eaten
by Ammut, a hideous
creature that lies in
wait below the scale, and
the soul will die a
second and permanent
death (this was the worst
fear of the Egyptians).
But if the heart is in
balance with the feather,
the soul proceeds onward.
The final stage of the
journey is the arrival at
The Field of Reeds
(movement 4), which is a
perfect mirror image of
the soulAs life in
ancient Egypt. The soul
reunites with deceased
family members, makes
sacrifices to the
Egyptian gods and
goddess, harvests crops
from plentiful fields of
wheat under a brilliant
blue sky, and lives
forever next to the
abundant and nourishing
waters of the Nile. Rites
