Conducteur avec couverture rigide. Par GADE NIELS WILHELM. Gade dated the cantata „Zion“ op. 49 (named “concert piece” in the first edition) on 16 September 1874; the premiere took place on 30 August 1876 during a festival in Birmingham.

Mozart wrote the five Divertimenti for Wind Sextet between the years 1775 and 1777 when he was living in Salzburg. The Italian title is reminiscent of simple 'light? music, but the pieces' melodic ingenuity and colourful writing for winds show it to be chamber music of the highest quality.

Excerpts from Movement 1. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Mozart belongs to everyone! The experience of actually playing Mozart's music makes him real and more than just a name we associate with old music.

Perfect for advanced players and very true to the original. Shifting is required for 1st violins, cellos, and basses, while 2nd violins and violas get exceptionally rich parts of 16th notes and melody throughout. This short but energetic dance will make an excellent closer for any concert. (4:00) / Orchestre A Cordes

Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. “The Etudes op. 52 and op. 111 are little masterpieces of invention. On every page you encounter ingenious inventions for piano technique and sound.” (Isidore Philipp) What Isidore Philipp described in “Musica” in 1907 is still true today: indeed, the etudes of Saint-Saens offer a panopticon of French piano technique as complex as it is dazzling. Individual etudes, suc…

Three Movements For Improvising Oboe, Soprano Sax, Viola, Cello. Par LIEBMAN DAVID. It is natural as we age to contemplate the finality of passing on, if not personally, then certainly as an effect from others around you whom have left this space.

In 1903, Satie composed his famous cycle for piano duet with the provocative and ambiguous title '3 Morceaux en forme de Poire?. (In French, 'poire? means 'pear? but also 'dimwit?). It is a detached and ironic commentary on the constraints of musical form.Now this cycle is being published in a scholarly-critical Urtext edition for the first time.
