In addition to the new items from Schott Music, Boosey & Hawkes and M. P. Belaieff, you will find music for the first time from our new publishing partner advance music. The strengths of their publishing programme lie in performance literature as well as pedagogical material in the areas of jazz, big band and wind ensemble. In May of this year, we celebrate the centenary of the first performance of The Rite of Spring by Stravinsky. Boosey & Hawkes in cooperation with The Paul Sacher Foundation have produced a New Centenary Edition in three volumes, featuring facsimiles of Stravinsky’s original scores along with essays from renowned experts. Boosey & Hawkes also celebrate the 100th anniversary of Benjamin Britten’s birth this year. For Schott, 2013 is the year of Richard Wagner and on 22nd May the musical world will celebrate his 200th birthday. Over 800 original editions, single editions and arrangements have been published by Schott since the middle of the 19th century when Wagner first came to us to publish Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, Der Ring des Nibelungen and Parsifal. To mark this anniversary we have published a new series of vocal scores of ten of Wagner’s greatest operas based on the complete edition. Look forward, with us, to a multi-facetted programme this spring. I hope you enjoy browsing, playing and reading.

  • Let Me Be Your Guide: 21St Century Choir Music in Flanders
    Let me be your guide: 21st century choir music in Flanders Flanders has a rich tradition of choir music. But what about the 21st century? Meet the composers in this who's who. Alain De Ley Alain De Ley (° 1961) gained his first musical experience as a singer of the Antwerp Cathedral Choir, while he was still behind the school desks in the Sint-Jan Berchmans College in Antwerp. He got a taste for it and a few years later studied flute with Remy De Roeck and piano with Patrick De Hooghe, Freddy Van der Koelen, Hedwig Vanvaerenbergh and Urbain Boodts). In 1979 he continued his studies at the Royal Music Conservatory in Antwerp. Only later did he take private composition lessons with Alain Craens. Alain De Ley prefers to write music for choir and smaller ensembles. As the artistic director of the Flemish Radio Choir, he is familiar with the possibilities and limitations of a singing voice. Since 2003 Alain De Ley is composer in residence for Ensemble Polyfoon that premiered a great number of his compositions and recorded a CD dedicated to his music, conducted by Lieven Deroo He also received various commissions from choirs like Musa Horti and Amarylca, Kalliope and from the Flanders Festival. Alain De Ley’s music is mostly melodic, narrative, descriptive and reflective. Occasionally Alain De Ley combines the classical writing style with pop music. This is how the song Liquid Waltz was created in 2003 for choir, solo voice and pop group, sung by K’s Choice lead singer Sarah Bettens. He also regularly writes music for projects in which various art forms form a whole.

Stravinsky is one of the most important neo-classical composers of the twentieth century. The purpose of this document is to examine how Stravinsky upholds his neoclassical aesthetic in his violin writing through his two pieces, Suite italienne and Duo Concertant. In these works, Stravinsky’s use of neoclassicism is revealed in two opposite ways. In Suite Italienne, Stravinsky based the composition upon actual music from the eighteenth century. In Duo Concertant, Stravinsky followed the stylistic features of the eighteenth century without parodying actual music from that era. Important types of violin writing are described in these two works by Stravinsky, which are then compared with examples of eighteenth-century violin writing. iii Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) was born in Oranienbaum (now Lomonosov) in Russia near St.

  • The Critical Reception of Tippett's Operas
    Between Englishness and Modernism: The Critical Reception of Tippett’s Operas Ivan Hewett (Royal College of Music) [email protected] The relationship between that particular form of national identity and consciousness we term ‘Englishness’ and modernism has been much discussed1. It is my contention in this essay that the critical reception of the operas of Michael Tippett sheds an interesting and revealing light on the relationship at a moment when it was particularly fraught, in the decades following the Second World War. Before approaching that topic, one has to deal first with the thorny and many-sided question as to how and to what extent those operas really do manifest a quality of Englishness. This is more than a parochial question of whether Tippett is a composer whose special significance for listeners and opera-goers in the UK is rooted in qualities that only we on these islands can perceive. It would hardly be judged a triumph for Tippett if that question were answered in the affirmative. On the contrary, it would be perceived as a limiting factor — perhaps the very factor that prevents Tippett from exporting overseas as successfully as his great rival and antipode, Benjamin Britten. But even without that hard evidence of Tippett’s limited appeal, the very idea that his Englishness forms a major part of his significance could in itself be a disabling feature of the music. We are squeamish these days about granting a substantive aesthetic value to music on the grounds of its national qualities, if the composer in question is not safely locked away in the relatively remote past.

Immediately, a question arises: why zombies? Perhaps Kundry, the wandering Jewess, could be seen as an undead wanderer. Parsifal, too, is cursed to wander past endurance, and Amfortas clearly suffers from an inconvenient and painful immortality.

  • PROMETHEUS BOUND by Aeschylus
    PROMETHEUS BOUND By Aeschylus In dealing with "Prometheus Bound," it helps to know something about Greek mythology, in particular, the generations of divine beings which preceded Zeus, Athena, Aphrodite, Dionysus, and the pantheon of Greek gods with whom we are familiar. Among other immortal beings at the dawn of time were the Titans, who fought against Zeus when he defeated his father, Cronos. With the help of the Hecatoncheires (the hundred-handed monsters), and the Cyclopes, Zeus prevailed, gradually taming his ferocious allies and reaching a rough accommodation with the Titans. One of the Titans was Prometheus, who remained somewhat rebellious. His name means forethought. His brother, Epimetheus, (afterthought) was slow to figure things out, but Prometheus could look ahead. He knew things the gods did not know. Prometheus had what the gods considered a character flaw: he had sympathy for humans. The Olympian gods were completely indifferent to the fate of mankind and were content to let them struggle for existence. Prometheus decided to give them something forbidden: fire. In giving humanity physical fire, he also endowed them with mental fire: intelligence and self-awareness. For this he was severely punished. His story was told by the Greek tragedian Aeschylus in three plays, only the first of which survives. Actually, scholars now doubt that Aeschylus was the author because the play calls for stage effects that did not exist when Aeschylus was alive. We can't be completely sure, because knowledge of dramatic techniques 25 centuries ago is sketchy, at best. However, what we can glean of Aeschylus' thought and temperament seems reflected in the play, so most are willing to cite him as its author until we have definitive proof otherwise.
