Par CHOPIN FREDERIC. This composition was never called a Nocturne by Chopin. It was probably written in 1830 when he was 20 years old, for his sister Louise, and was marked simply Lento, con gran espressione. It cannot be said to be in the form of a Nocturne, as Nocturnes are not written in any definite form, but the content justifies the name. It is interesting not only for itself but because it …

Among the 26 motets written “in the Italian…

a cura di Federico Maria Sardelli. Par VIVALDI ANTONIO. Among Vivaldi’s many flute and recorder concertos, two, both for transverse flute, were known until a few years ago only in incomplete form: RV 431 and 432. Both are written in the comfortable and expressive key of E minor, are transmitted inautograph manuscripts and lack their second movement (RV 432 also lacks its third movement). The seemi…

Par RICKER RAMON. Contemporary straight-eighth 'Maiden Voyage' feel. This chart takes up where 'Suspended Animation' left off. Uses same two suspended chords and adds a bridge. There is space for anyone in the band to solo. To help the beginning improviser, the composer has included some brief 'Notes on the Improvised Sections'. In addition this chart is correlated with material found in Vol. 1 of…
