The sweeping melody line of this work blends smoothly with a sense of symphonic chorale. The Silvestri text begins with the last words in Gjeilo's 2011 Tundra, here painting a world of light. An excellent centerpiece work for high school and beyond, and a sure audience pleaser! String quartet score and parts available separately. Duration: ca. 4:10. / Choeur Mixte (SSAATTBB)

Passionsoratorium. Par LOEWE CARL. Carl Loewe, who today is known only for his Ballades, left behind an extensive musical opus especially created to meet the rapidly growing needs of the emerging middle class during the Biedermeier period [including 15 oratorios]. In the oratorio Das Sühnopfer des neuen Bundes [The Expiatory Sacrifice of the New Covenant], composed during the middle of the 19th ce…

Par SPOLIANSKY MISCHA. Spoliansky worked on Symphony over the course of three decades, from 1941 to 1969. It proves to be a very interesting historical document. Some passages are harbingers of orchestral composition techniques now well known in film music, while others evoke the music of the heyday of revue theatres. In his oeuvre Symphony counts as the only symphonic work and can be considered a…

Par MANTOVANI BRUNO. After Eclair de lune for three principal snare drums, three ensembles and electronics, and after my Concerto for two violas written for Tabea Zimmermann and Antoine Tamestit, I felt compelled to compose a new work for double soloist, and ended up choosing the piano. First of all from a desire to write for Varduhi Yeritsyan and François-Frédéric Guy, but also because the confro…

Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. Two of Saint-Saens most popular works appear together in this affordable volume. First composed in a song form Danse Macabre was later rewritten as a symphonic poem. It is important to remember that risque music was considered more daring and controversial than today and audiences at its 1875 debut were resistant to its unconventional charms, but it eventually became a cro…

Par MUSSORGSKY MODEST. The symphonic poem Night on a Bald Mountain took its inspiration from a story by the well known Russian writer Nicola Gogol. Mussorgsky took no steps to promote his masterpiece and it was only after his death when Rimsky-Korsakov was looking through the enormous stack of manuscripts that the work resurfaced. Written above the score, Mussorgsky gives a brief description of th…

L’école puise dans un passé prestigieux qui remonte à 1614.

Par SPARKE PHILIP. A Monmouth Overture fut composé pour le Haberdashers’ Symphonic Winds pendant l’année de résidence à Monmouth School du compositeur Philip Sparke. Cette oeuvre est basée sur la chanson d’Azincourt du 15 ème siècle, écrite en hommage à la victoire de Henri V sur l’armée française plus grande mais démodée. Henri V fut né à Monmouth en 1387, d’où vient le titre historique de cette …
