Written for my first doctoral recital, Celestial Harmonies was a fun exercise in experimentation. I approached another graduate student, Allen Morris, about taking high quality photographs of each of the constellations, which he did between Thanksgiving and New Year's Eve in 2013. Upon receiving these photographs, I had staff paper printed on transparency paper and placed the constellation photos beneath the transparency paper and traced out the constellations on the staff paper. These became the introductory sketches for this new string quartet. Like a solitary photographer gazing up at the night sky, the music is quiet and intimate, but reflects the drama and wonderment of this wonderous phenomenon.

This Grade 2 original work was inspired by the tender poem of the same name by Sara Teasdale. Gentle phrases capture the wistful hope the poet felt as she contemplated the steadfast stars that burn steadily as long ago even as the world changed below. The lyrical melody provides developing players opportunities to work on tone, slurs, and expressive playing with one easy key change from D major to G major. A shift from major to minor tonality reflects the bittersweet stanzas that lament the loss of youthful dreams amidst the turmoil of life, even while admiring the faithful beauty of the celestial constellations. The dreamy piece evokes images of shimmering stars in the cold December night, with shadows shaken on the snow, offering a tranquil winter concert selection.This Grade 2 original work was inspired by the tender poem of the same name by Sara Teasdale.

Dáni el Dobos (* 1994) studied with Gyula Fekete and Máté Bella at the Department of Composition of the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music. In his violin concerto Sylvanus, he uses the technical repertoire of Transylvanian folk violinists. His piano piece, Drumul dracului, which won the first prize in 2018 at the Béla Bartók World Competition, also focuses on a new interpretation of Transylvanian folk music roots. In Callis stellarum, Dobos set one of the apocalyptic visions by the prophet Isaiah: “For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.” At the end of the composition, the Hungarian folk song “Csillagok, csillagok” (Stars and Stars) is heard as a kind of hopeful association. Commissioned by the municipality of Debrecen, this piece won the first prize in the youth mixed choir category of the HangKELTO Youth Composition Competition held in 2021.

On the broadcast of the film From Dusk Till Dawn, the following note could be read in Gong (German radio and television programme guide) on 21 May: The gangsters Seth (George Clooney) and Richard Gecko (Quentin Tarantino) are on the run. On their way to Mexico, they take the apostate preacher Fuller and his children hostage. On their journey, they end up in Titty Twister Bar, not suspecting that it is peopled by vampires. Well, after deducting some film junk, some typical elements remain: what is past and over, constant new dramatic pair constellations, what is dead and constantly reawakening, the transformations, the troubles and destructions, the final annihilation teeming with destruction etc. Basically, it is a myth of ruin, in whose structure the elements are interchangeable. It could also be told with a coherent material concept, in a historically obsolete manner, in an old-fashioned way, with non-compensation, with flaring abolition yes, does everything always work??? It is good that it only takes place in a bar and that the bar invites us into Titty Twister in attractive neon writing. Restless nature and beauty are at home in the bar today. That facilitates for us the effortlessness of having fun in life. And today there is a special programme my piece Titty Twister for Accordion, Viola, Nepalese Singing Bowl, Pinballs and Mini Dramolettes. Its all expression, isnt it??? Nicolaus A.

Moon and Sun (for two soprano soloists and mixed choir) is a setting of verses from the Kalevala, the most famous of Finland's poetic folk-epics. The Mistress of the North has buried the moon's face in the motley stone, charmed the day's dawning deep into the steely mountainside with her song. Viitanen combines a contemporary musical style with folk ballad melodies from the southern Baltic, and applies the relative distances between the stars of Ursa Major and Ursa Minor constellations, according to his own formula.

Charles Gounod composed this Requiem under the impact of the death of his four-year-old grandson, Maurice. According to information handed down, while finishing the details of this work he was overtaken by death. It was published posthumously in various constellations by his pupil, Henri Busser, but the only complete version from the pen of Gounod is the version for large orchestra, which is published here for the first time in a critical edition. Gounod's Requiem, unlike many contemporary settings of the Mass of the Dead, is not characterized by darkness and terror. Rather, with all of its trepidation - expressed through a marked chromaticism - an atmosphere of hopeful expectation, of trust in the grace and equity of the divine judge predominates. This confidence finds its expression in the choice of the fundamental key of C major, which is rather unusual for a requiem. The work was given an impressive performance on the occasion of the first anniversary of Gounod's death in the Parisian church of Sainte-Madeleine under the direction of Gabriel Fauré and it was highly acclaimed by the contemporary press.

De zodiak (dierenriem) is in de astrologie het stelsel van hemellichamen van de twaalf sterrenbeelden dat we vanaf de aarde kunnen zien. Voor Zodiac gebruikte Jan de Haan vier van deze tekens als inspiratiebron. Zo passerenin deze compositie de Stier, de Schorpioen, de Waterman en de Leeuw de revue. Bij het componeren liet Jan de Haan zich leiden door de eigenschappen die de astrologie aan deze sterrenbeelden toedicht. Deze horoscoop voor blaasorkestvoorspelt in ieder geval een geslaagde uitvoering!Der Zodiakus (Tierkreis) ist in der Astrologie das den von der Erde aus sichtbaren Himmel umspannende Band der zwölf Tierkreiszeichen. Jan de Haan verwendete vier dieser Zeichen (Stier, Skorpion, Wassermann und Löwe) als Quelle der Inspiration für dieses Werk und ließ sich beim Komponieren von den Eigenschaften, welche die Astrologie diesen zuordnet, leiten. Das Horoskop für Fanfareorchester verspricht einen gelungen Konzertauftritt! Compact Band Series : Cette nouvelle collection propose une série d’œuvres de tous styles, dans un degré de difficulté restreint (2-21/2 ). Le choix d’une instrumentation élargie a permis d’obtenir une excellente homogénéité entre les pupitres et de belles couleurs sonores. Ces œuvres sont dont accessibles, la fois, aux formations incomplètes ainsi qu’aux formations complètes gr ce aux parties optionnelles incluses dans le set./ ZODIAC : Le zodiaque est la zone de la sphère céleste dans laquelle on peut voir, partir de la Terre, les mouvements du Soleil, de la Lune et des huit planètes principales du système solaire. Le zodiaque désigne aussi l'ensembledes douze divisions (constellations) de cette zone, associées douze figures (signes) employées en astrologie. Étudiée depuis des millénaires, l’astrologie postule que le caractère, la personnalité et tous les secteurs de la vie d’un individu (bonheur, amour, santé, travail) sont déterminés par la position des planètes au moment de sa naissance. Tout est lié, tout se tient.Le compositeur a choisi de tracer un portrait de quatre signes zodiacaux (Taureau, Scorpion, Verseau, Lion) en fonction des caractéristiques psychologiques qui leur sont attribuées.1. Taurus:Le natif du Taureau est un être pondéré, consciencieux, volontaire et persévérant. Il aime les bonnes choses de la vie.2. Scorpio: De nature passionnée, résolue et observatrice, le natif du Scorpion est entier.3. Aquarius:Le Verseau est un être indépendant au go t exagéré pour la démesure. Il est imaginatif et libre jusqu’ l’indiscipline.4. Leo :Le natif du Lion s’impose par sa personnalité optimiste et impressionnante. Il est s r de lui, plein d’assurance et sans complaisance.

This three-movement programmatic work is based on various constellations and their Greek mythologies. Movements include Orion (The Hunter), Draco (The Dragon), and Pegasus (The Winged Horse). The opening movement paints a picture of the night sky before introducing the mighty Orion. The second movement depicts the fiery dragon and its fierce triple row of teeth. (An optional lion's roar enhances the movement.) The final movement takes listeners on a flight with Pegasus, beginning with a fast gallop on the ground before the magnificent animal takes flight. The movements can be performed separately or as a whole. Absolutely stunning!

This work shows the composer's need to move in another musical direction away from the Urban Jungle style he had sought in previous works such as Kraft and UR. The piece is based upon the composer's interest in the musical confrontation between serial and spectral thinking as if it is the conflict between different views of organisation that create interesting and unforseen constellations of musical material. Twine took over a year and a half to complete, a fairly long time for a piece which is only 7 minutes long. Although wonderful in its own right, Lindberg now considers it a study for his orchestral piece Kinetics which was written between 1988-89. Arranged for Solo Piano.
