Canticle. Par JALBERT PIERRE. Canticle (String Quartet No. 6) was commissioned by the Chiara String Quartet. It consists of seven movements, highly contrasting in character, with movements I and VII serving as similar bookends to the overall arch of the work. The piece opens with the quartet members striking various crotales, producing bell sounds that eventually blend with the string quartet – ev…

St. Michael. Par BOURGEOIS LOUIS. The French composer Louis Bourgeois lived from c. 1510 to 1560. Bourgeois was cantor in Geneva and, commissioned by John Calvin, he composed melodies for metrical (rhyming) versions of the psalms. After completing about a hundred one-part psalms, he made some four-part arrangements, which were denounced and even resulted in his imprisonment for a day. Later, Bourg…

from Organ Dances. Par CHILCOTT BOB. Sun Dance is a slightly modified version of the fifth movement from the composer's Organ Dances. The music is for the most part celebratory in character, its spiky rhythms driven along by the pervasive alternation of 3/8 and 4/4 metrical groupings, although the composer also has fun with 7/8 and 5/8 patterns. / Classique / Répertoire / Orgue

Par FELDMANN WALTER. The viola solo courbe 2 is based on an excerpt from the viola part in the Trio for flute, viola and harp « courbes » – sequences. In the densest time curve of this piece the viola plays the leading role for a span of almost three minutes. This material is taken from the Trio, presented and divided into separate parts. courbe 2 is three times longer in duration than the Trio ex…

The composer, pianist and musicologist Antonio Ruiz-Pipó (1934-1997) wrote works of various genres which follow Albéniz and de Falla: Written in a neo-classical style with a strong personal influence, they show a strong attachment to his Spanish roots. One of them is the piece Endecha for harp which was created in 1975 for the soloist David Watkins, premiered and recorded on LP in the following ye…

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Beethoven's Sonata in F major op. 54 was written in 1804, just after the highly virtuosic 'Waldstein' Sonata and before the 'Appassionata' Sonata, and has unjustly stood in the shadow of its predecessor and successor ever since. Its two movements are characterized by the friction between traditional form and creative abandon. While the opening movement marked 'In Tempo d'…
