Par SPARKE PHILIP. In 2006, a long-time dream of Philip Sparke finally became reality: to compose a set of variations on the famous chorale from Saint-Saëns’ renowned Organ Symphony. In 2009 the composer reworked the piece for brass band. The resulting Saint-Saëns Variations has been simplified, shortened and in many places completely recomposed, to distill the essence of the symphony even further…

Les mouvements de 'Missa di Sant 'Anna' ont été composés au cours de plusieurs années, chacun pour le 'Mädchenchor am Essener Dom' (les filles de la chorale de la cathédrale d'Essen). Le titre de la messe est liée à l'inauguration de la 'Agnus Dei', commémorant les victimes innocentes du massacre dans le village de S. Anna di Stazzema en Toscane dans l'année de guerre 1944 et en appréciant l'idée …

Oratorium. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Mendelssohn composed his first oratorio Paulus under the impression of his own revival of J. S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion in 1829. He integrated chorale settings into St. Paul, for which he was accused by his contemporaries of making a stylistic break, using an element unsuitable to church music. In spite of these reservations, during Mendelssohn’s life…

Par BUXTEHUDE DIETRICH. This cantata combines two texts: “Erhalt uns Herr bei deinem Wort” and “Verleih uns Frieden gnädiglich. ” The Lübeckisches Gesangbuch of 1703 included both hymns, with a verse by Johann Walter added, to the melody “Erhalt uns Herr. ” This was the basis for Buxtehude’s composition. The copy of the tabulature of this cantata in the Düben Collection can be dated to the summer …

Par VINE CARL. Premiered by the Takács String Quartet in 2004, Carl Vine's String Quartet #4 is a dark and pensive work. Split into two equal parts, this acerbic 15-minute exploration of conflict without resolution - with angular rhythmic gestures set abruptly against a brooding chorale - would make an imposing addition to any quartet's repertoire. / Répertoire / Quatuor à Cordes

Par FREEMAN ALEX. Alex Freeman found initial inspiration for his string quartet (2015) in a series of photographs a geologist friend showed him of en échelon veins in rock formations. The open strings punctuated with pizzicato unisons that begin the single-movement work call to mind something crystalline and shimmering, which is immediately infused with tumbling lyrical lines in something of a rap…

Par BUXTEHUDE DIETRICH. Buxtehude took the melody and words from the evening hymn Christ, der du bist der helle Tag. The words are embellished with coloratures and a change of meter enhances the work’s charme. This composition goes beyond the bounds of a straightforward chorale cantata through its use of concertante elements, which also applies the voice parts. The title of this work, on a copy ma…

This concerto, a new addition to the literature for guitar and orchestra, casts the guitar almost as a member of the percussion family from the very beginning, explosive in its energy, easing into song for its second theme.An extensive cadenza takes the soloist to the highest note before plunging into an appropriately hectic ending. A simple (but all the more telling) guitar solo opens and closes …
