Par WEISS SILVIUS LEOPOLD. Silvius Leopold Weiss (1687 1750) is known to guitarists as the greatest baroque composer for the lute, yet most are only familiar with the earlier portion of Weiss?s prolific output found in the British Library in London. Inspired by a forty-year friendship with the late Douglas Alton Smith - a major figure in the scholarly study of the history of the lute - guitarist, composer, and head of the guitar program at Temple University in Philadelphia, Allen Krantz explored the Weiss manuscripts found in other European cities, particularly the Dresden editions which contain the fifteen sonatas that Weiss produced from the late 1730s to the end of his life. Transcriptions of three of those fifteen late sonatas are featured in this book in modern standard notation along with the original lute tablature as found in the Sächsische Landesbibliothek - Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek, Dresden. While the baroque lute?s tuning makes some works awkward or impossible on the guitar, the three works presented here?Sonatas No. 35 in D minor, No. 42 in A minor and No. 45 in A Major? are in their original keys which happen to be guitar-friendly. The author?s generous and scholarly ?Preface? provides thorough historical and performance notes for the music in this volume. While just three of Weiss?s 109 multi-movement lute sonatas are represented here, the importance of this publication cannot be overstated. It contains some of the greatest music of a masterful lutenist? Weiss once faced-off with J. S. Bach on keyboards in a counterpoint improvisation contest?now made accessible to the modern classical guitarist. / Date parution : 2022-04-09/ Recueil / Guitare Classique

Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. Brahms? elegy Nänie op. 82, based on the poem by Friedrich von Schiller, was composed in 1880/81 following the death of the painter Anselm Feuerbach, whom Brahms greatly admired. In contrast with the poem, Brahms? Nänie ends full of hope: after earthly decline, beauty can live on in art. As in his Deutsches Requiem op. 45, in Nänie Brahms creates a musical connection between mourning and consolation in an incomparable way. Inspired by the model of classical Roman-Greek laments, the work adopts the classical verse form chosen by Schiller ? surely alluding to Feuerbach?s classically-inspired art.Scored for mixed chorus and orchestra, we are publishing the work in a modern Urtext edition. One or more harps can be used ad lib. The primary source is the first printed edition of 1881. The latest scholarly discoveries as well as practical requirements have been taken into consideration. Performance material is available on sale as well as a vocal score, based on Brahms?s original vocal score, but in a revised performing version. / Date parution : 2023-06-02/ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte SATB et Piano

Great performers have proven that the trumpet can be successfully used for playing not only classic music, but also symphonic or chamber music from the classical, romantic or modern period just as well as any other musical instrument. No longer is contemporary repertoire considered unfit for the trumpet. Every sincere instrumentalist needs a regular study program. A daily practice of technical exercises and etudes is necessary for improving and maintaining the desired results. Regularly playing works of music should be the aim of every musician, amateur as well as professional. The best keys have been carefully chosen for trumpet and therefore many songs are not in the keys in which they were originally written. Also a number of other adaptations have been introduced to make the music more suitable for performance on the trumpet in B flat. The structure of the music has not been altered. Composers include: Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Praetorius, Corrette, Mozart, Händel, Bach, Hook, Lully, Boismortier, Schumann, Rameau, Saint-Saëns, Purcell, and Martini. The piano accompaniment is available as a free download. / Trompette / 44 pages / niveau : Multiple Levels / Partition - Format: 11 X 8,5
