Inside are details of 100s of titles now reduced from EMI and Virgin Classics, including boxsets, DVDs and (dare we mention it...) Christmas titles. Sadly, not everything would fit inside this brochure, but we have picked what we believe to be the best of the bunch and everything else can be viewed on our website. Also starting in October are lots of reductions on titles from DG, Decca and Philips. Included in this months list are DVDs plus some full-price titles with 50% discount! Next month we will include a big boxset listing, but if you can’t wait, full details can be found on the website. One title that has picked up a lot of interest over recent weeks is a world premiere recording of Handel’s ‘Germanico’ (authorship is in question). Initially, Sony (DHM) were not going to bring it into the UK, but so many enquiries were generated that they have agreed to release a limited number over here.

  • The Musical Partnership of Sergei Prokofiev And
    THE MUSICAL PARTNERSHIP OF SERGEI PROKOFIEV AND MSTISLAV ROSTROPOVICH A CREATIVE PROJECT SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF MUSIC IN PERFORMANCE BY JIHYE KIM DR. PETER OPIE - ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA DECEMBER 2011 Among twentieth-century composers, Sergei Prokofiev is widely considered to be one of the most popular and important figures. He wrote in a variety of genres, including opera, ballet, symphonies, concertos, solo piano, and chamber music. In his cello works, of which three are the most important, his partnership with the great Russian cellist Mstislav Rostropovich was crucial. To understand their partnership, it is necessary to know their background information, including biographies, and to understand the political environment in which they lived. Sergei Prokofiev was born in Sontovka, (Ukraine) on April 23, 1891, and grew up in comfortable conditions. His father organized his general education in the natural sciences, and his mother gave him his early education in the arts. When he was four years old, his mother provided his first piano lessons and he began composition study as well. He studied theory, composition, instrumentation, and piano with Reinhold Glière, who was also a composer and pianist. Glière asked Prokofiev to compose short pieces made into the structure of a series.1 According to Glière’s suggestion, Prokofiev wrote a lot of short piano pieces, including five series each of 12 pieces (1902-1906). He also composed a symphony in G major for Glière. When he was twelve years old, he met Glazunov, who was a professor at the St.

Cover In 1693, the French Académie des Sciences introduced a new, supposedly more rational system for categorising letterforms and constructing them according to an underlying grid. This was employed in the design of Romain du Roi, a new typeface for Louis XIV’s royal printer. The grid-engraved plates, on which the ‘B’ on the cover is based, were produced to demonstrate the typeface’s geometrical construction at a time when letterforms were generally derived from stylised handwriting.

  • Script Listening Program 3
    Non-Directed Music Listening Program Series III Non-Directed Music Listening Program Script Series III Week 1 Composer: Ludwig von Beethoven (1770 – 1827) Composition: Minuet in G, No. 2 Performance: Philadelphia Orchestra, Eugene Ormandy Recording: CBS Masterworks Dinner Classics: The Viennese Album CBS MFK 45545 Day 1: This week’s listening selection is “Minuet in G, No. 2” by Ludwig von Beethoven. A minuet is a graceful dance. A man greets his partner with a bow then, hand-in- hand, leads her through a series of smooth and delicate movements. It is the small steps and gestures that give the dance its name – minuet which comes from a word that means small or minute. This is quite a contrast to the popular dances of today – such as Texas Line Dancing. Day 2: This week we are listening to Ludwig von Beethoven’s “Minuet in G, No. 2”. Between the 1600’s and the 1800’s, the minuet was the most popular dance in which ladies and gentlemen of the court gracefully moved through a series of small but intricate steps. You were not allowed membership in the king or queen’s court unless you had memorized the steps and patterns to the many different minuets. Today as you listen, think about all the dance moves you know. Would they fit with the music? Can you imagine how the men and women looked as they glided effortlessly across the polished floors? Day 3: This week’s listening excerpt is “Minuet in G, No. 2” written by the famous German composer, Ludwig von Beethoven.

  • Sergei Prokofiev
    Sergei Prokofiev Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev (/prɵˈkɒfiɛv/; Russian: Сергей Сергеевич Прокофьев, tr. Sergej Sergeevič Prokof'ev; April 27, 1891 [O.S. 15 April];– March 5, 1953) was a Russian composer, pianist and conductor. As the creator of acknowledged masterpieces across numerous musical genres, he is regarded as one of the major composers of the 20th century. His works include such widely heard works as the March from The Love for Three Oranges, the suite Lieutenant Kijé, the ballet Romeo and Juliet – from which "Dance of the Knights" is taken – and Peter and the Wolf. Of the established forms and genres in which he worked, he created – excluding juvenilia – seven completed operas, seven symphonies, eight ballets, five piano concertos, two violin concertos, a cello concerto, and nine completed piano sonatas. A graduate of the St Petersburg Conservatory, Prokofiev initially made his name as an iconoclastic composer-pianist, achieving notoriety with a series of ferociously dissonant and virtuosic works for his instrument, including his first two piano concertos. In 1915 Prokofiev made a decisive break from the standard composer-pianist category with his orchestral Scythian Suite, compiled from music originally composed for a ballet commissioned by Sergei Diaghilev of the Ballets Russes. Diaghilev commissioned three further ballets from Prokofiev – Chout, Le pas d'acier and The Prodigal Son – which at the time of their original production all caused a sensation among both critics and colleagues. Prokofiev's greatest interest, however, was opera, and he composed several works in that genre, including The Gambler and The Fiery Angel. Prokofiev's one operatic success during his lifetime was The Love for Three Oranges, composed for the Chicago Opera and subsequently performed over the following decade in Europe and Russia.

The genus just newly created is celebrated everywhere. Not quite. For in Romee were allowed operas for decades heard exclusively in a closed society. The Papal State, who wanted to seem virtuous achieved at least outwardly like all these stories about love, lust, passions and all the ancient heroes and gods was morally rather questionable.
