Although often regarded as quintessentially English in style Elgar???s music is undeniably deeply rooted in the German Romantic tradition. Elgar???s gift for the creation of melody often sequential and frequently including one of his most familiar ???fingerprints??? ??? the falling seventh ??? might well be the most obvious attraction in his music. But underpinning those melodies is a sophisticated harmonic vocabulary which often reveals that wider Germanic influence especially in moments of drama.It is hoped that this set of piano duet arrangements suitable for intermediate-level players and beyond will continue to bring new performers to these Elgar favourites whether they are simply playing for their own enjoyment or preparing for concert performance and that they will find much to reward their efforts.

Op. 38. Par ELGAR EDWARD. This is the best of me, wrote Edward Elgar after the final measure of his Dream of Gerontius. Premiered in 1900, in Great Britain the work has long been a standard work in the repertoire of large oratorio choirs. Elgar?s moving, poetic setting of the eponymous poem by Cardinal John Henry Newman is about a dying man and his journey beyond death to God. Before the eyes of the listeners, a musical image of the soul is created which flies past mocking demons to God with its protecting angel at its side, is allowed to look at him briefly, then faces the purgatorial fire of salvation confident and comforted. The work is a real rarity in the history of oratorio, and for large choirs it is a thrilling alternative to the established repertoire of Requiem settings. Its popularity is thanks to the suggestive, often sensuous power of the music, the great choral scenes of the demons and the Angel, and the three impressive solo parts. All previous editions were reprints based on the historic first printed materials, which are inconsistent. By contrast, Carus has produced a modern, newly-engraved edition, compatible in all sections, which takes all the sources into consideration and evaluates the autograph manuscript in detail. For this edition the complete orchestral material is available on sale, and the vocal score and full score contain both English and German singing texts. The full score is also available digitally. / Date parution : 2022-05-31/ Répertoire / Solistes, Ch?ur SATB et Orchestre

Edward Fairlie's Storm And Urge is a significant work for Wind Band and portrays a journey of emotional turbulence. The title comes from the German ?Sturm und Drang ? a literary and musical movement of the late 1700s which focused on extremes of emotion. Opening with a simple and reflective theme we are then taken through a range of emotional settings from uncertainty to resistance and then calm resolve and self-knowledge. With a variety of textures and vivid imagery this is a masterful work for the contemporary ensemble.Instrumentation: Piccolo Flute I Flute II Oboe Eb Clarinet Bb Clarinet I Bb clarinet II Bb clarinet III Bassclarinet Contrabass Clarinet Bassoon Soprano Saxophone Alto Saxophone I Alto Saxophone II Tenor Saxophone Baritone Saxophone Trumpet I Trumpet II.

The Black Knight (Op.25) is a secular cantata for chorus and orchestra composed in 1893. It takes its text from a poem from H. W. Longfellow which is itself a translation of a poem in German by Ludwig Uhland. The choral parts act as a backing to the orchestra showing how Elgar was developing his orchestration techniques and talents although this development went unnoticed until the sudden success of the Enigma Variations in 1899. Edward Elgar (1857-1934) is one of England’s best-known and most-loved composers. He was self-taught as composer coming from outside the musical and social establishment which allowed his music to be fresh and unencumbered.
