La Mer : Trois Esquisses Symphoniques

Claude Debussy's La Mer is an impressionistic work through and through. The three symphonic sketches that make up the work were composed between 1903-1905, however Debussy refined this work upuntil at least 1913. These corrections are found in a score which the composer gave to his wife as a present for her private library in 1913.The new scholarly-critical edition draws on several important sources previouslyunavailable to musicologists, resulting in an array of new readings and corrections. In addition, there are many changes, especially in terms of articulation and dynamics.This new edition includes the famous “fanfare”inMovement III, clearly marked in small print and brackets. This fanfare was excised in the 1910 reissue of the work, but was reinstated by a number of great conductors who knew Debussy, i.e. Monteux, Münch, Mitropoulosand Ansermet. They felt that the excision was a misunderstanding and that the fanfare was necessary for the structure of the movement. And so, the Bärenreiter edition presents the revival of a performing tradition which iscommitted to the fanfare.New Urtext edition with numerous corrections in comparison to other editions.Important sources which were previously inaccessible have been taken into account.Score andorchestral parts in large format (25.5 x 32.5cm).Score and orchestral parts with an impeccable, generous layout.Includes an informative introduction (Eng/Fr/Ger), facsimiles, source descriptions and a CriticalCommentary (Eng).

Peter Maxwell Davies: Kommilitonen! (Young Blood!) - Full Score

Peter Maxwell Davies: Kommilitonen! (Young Blood!) - Full Score

Lyric opera in two acts. Libretto by David Pountney.Commissioned jointly by the Royal Academy of Music, London, UK and The Juilliard School, New York, USA.UK premiere: 18th March 2011 - Royal Academy of Music Opera and Sinfonia at the Royal Academy of Music, London, conducted by Jane Glover.US premiere: 16th November 2011 - Students of The Julliard School at Peter Jay Sharp Theatre, New York, conducted by Anne Manson.Overview.The piece consists of three interlocking stories of students involved in political action in three different situations.?Die Weiße Rose? was the name taken by a group of students at the University of Munich, led by Sophie and Hans Scholl. They produced leaflets protesting against the National Socialist government of Germany in 1942-3 until they were arrested and guillotined.?Soar to Heaven? follows two characters, Wu and Zhou, involved on opposite sides of the Cultural Revolution in China.?The Oxford Revolution? tells the story of James Meredith, who fought a lonely battle against segregation and racial prejudice to become the first black student to enrol at ?Ole Miss?, the University of Mississippi, in the USA.Librettist's Note.There are, inevitably and properly, some differences between the original libretto and what Max ultimately set to music. Most of these are insignificant, but all the Latin texts in the opera were added by Max, and texts for the alternating black / white choruses (Scene 19) and final chorus (Scene 28) were written by him.

Concerto : for the Left Hand for Piano and Orchestra

Concerto : for the Left Hand for Piano and Orchestra

In 1929 Paul Wittgenstein, a pianist and war veteran who lost his right arm in the Great War, commissioned Maurice Ravel to write a concerto for him to perform. The result was one of Ravel’s most thrillingcompositions and, for Wittgenstein, the most important of the many works he commissioned over the course of his career.This scholarly-critical edition of Ravel’s Piano Concerto For The Left Hand isbased on previously inaccessible and unknown sources. The editor, Douglas Woodfull-Harris, was able to consult manuscripts in the private library of the Paul Wittgenstein Estate which allowed him to retrace the work’sevolutionfrom Ravel’s autograph working copy to the first printed edition.A source of key importance to our new edition is a handwritten French copy of Ravel’s own Piano reduction (the autograph isinaccessible) that he gave to Wittgenstein to facilitate rehearsing the work. This copy is the sole source reflecting Wittgenstein’s own interpretation and containing his changes to the final cadenza. It also helps us tounderstand omissions in the first edition of the score as well as the Piano reduction, and enabled the editor, amongst other things, to correct a great many notes which could be found in previous editions, including the solo Pianopart.The Piano reduction in our edition contains both Ravel’s and Wittgenstein’s fingering. Also included is a solo part without fingering, thereby giving pianists the opportunity to enter their own fingering afterhaving studied those of Ravel and Wittgenstein.Score and orchestral parts in large format (25.5 x 32.5 cm)Includes source descriptions and a Critical Commentary with alternative readings(Eng)Informative Introduction on the work’s history and genesis (Ger/Eng/Fr)With facsimile pagesPiano reduction with separate Urtext solo part enclosedFull score & parts (BA7881) and two-Pianoreduction (BA7881-90) available for sale

Joseph Addison is not particularly well known; he was English, a classical scholar, essayist, poet and politician, but one of his hymns was used by Benjamin Britten. in his setting of a Thomas Tallis canon.The hymn is singularly beautiful and being a composer always inspired by extramusical stimuli such as poems, nature, paintings, I was immediately convinced when I carne across the Addison hymn, that here was exactly what I wanted to use as my major source of inspiration for this piece, commissioned by and written for The Berlin Philharmonic. I don't refer to the hymn in its entirety, but have chosen the following 3 excerpts, all acting as mottos for the first three sections of the piece, thus turning the piece into a straightforward tonepoem in the classical sense:The spacious firmament on high,With all the blue ethereal sky,And spangled heavens, a shining frame,Their great original proclaim. The title of the piece presents itself in the following verse: Soon as the evening shades prevailThe moon takes up the wondrous tale,And nightly to the listening earthRepeats the story of her birth;The third part of the piece follows these dramatic lines: Whilst all the stars that round her bum,And all the planets in their turn,Confirm the tidings, as they role,And spread the truth from pole to pole. Then 11 September, 2001 happened and personally - and as an artist - I quite simply couldn't end the piece on such a happy and glorious note, however beautiful, so, when the American modem-music web site sequenza2I.com in the days following the attack on New York City and Washington D.C. brought W.H.Auden's poem "September 1, 1939", I found the appropriate text on which to base the fourth and final section of 'listening Earth", which now turns into "Angry Earth'. Auden wrote the poem on the eve of 1 September, the day Hitler and his hordes rolled into Poland:... Waves of anger and fearCirculate over the brightAnd darkened lands of the earth,Obsessing our private lives;The unmentionable odour of deathOffends the September night.
