Par CHOPIN FREDERIC. In 1845/46 Chopin composed his bel canto inspired “Barcarolle” in F-sharp major op. 60, which became a model for subsequent generations of composers. In his evaluation of the divergent and partly even contradictory sources – due to the different engraving models (Stichvorlagen) for the first editions published almost simultaneously in Paris, London, and Leipzig – the editor o…

Contest March. Par SPARKE PHILIP. Philip Sparke wrote this march for the famous brass band contest held ever year on Whit Friday in Oldham and Saddleworth. Given the competition’s long history (over 120 years), he consciously composed this piece in a very traditional march form.

Cole Porters only attempt at a 'serious? composition came with the ballet score Within the Quota, when Darius Milhaud suggested Porter as a composer to pair with his La Création du monde. Both pieces were rapturously received by the Parisian press at the October 1923 premiere at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées. Cole Porter later believed the score to be lost. In 1970 the score was discovered at Yal…

In 1848, the thirteen year old Henryk Wieniawski wrote the first sketches to his Polonaise in D major. The composition was published in Germany in 1853 as Polonaise de Concert in D major op. 4 for violin with piano or orchestra accompaniment. When the work was re-published in Paris (1858), the title changed to Polonaise Brilliante. Tremendously popular already during the composer's life time, this…

for piano quartet. Par DAVIES PETER MAXWELL. The two nocturnes were composed immediately after major surgery, against a deadline, and, despite the music sounding unlike anything I have written before, I decided to keep them exactly as they turned out. 2010 is a Chopin year, and I made this pair of nocturnes into a little tribute, after playing through and listening to most of his output. Never bef…
