“Seco nd of the series of ?Four Faces? by Darius Milhaud, II. The Wisconsonian is a short piece for Alto and Piano. Easy to play, it requires some technique of the instrument and some theory knowledge to read in different keys. The book includes the parts for Viola and Piano and for Viola only. The music is cheerful and quite fast, with the Viola part playing mainly semisquavers alternating up and down every two bars. It is supposed to represent an American girl coming from Wisconsin. She is part of the four faces with: I. The Californian girl, II. The Wisconsonian and IV. The Parisian girl. Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) was a French modernist composer and a teacher. He was also part of the Les Six and was strongly influenced by Jazz. His opus list ended at 443.â€.

This piece lasts about 12 minutes, and it plays continuously, although it is made up of 16 small movements. Throughout, the four string players form a group: sometimes the clarinet is caught up with them, but more often it is like a person pursuing an independent train of thought: sometimes talking to itself, sometimes conversational, sometimes singing The starting point for my Quintet was Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities: like the book, my piece is composed from many small contrasting ideas that are constantly transforming, some coming to the fore as others recede. This quintet is dedicated to Hugh Sargent, who commissioned it.

This arrangement of the popular Polovtsian Dances by Russian composer Borodin contains seven dances from the original manuscript, some of which have been used in the musical Kismet, as well as being performed by such famous names as Tony Bennett and Bing Crosby. Includes a solo for snare drum! Masamicz Amono bewerkte de ´Polovetser Dansen´ van de rus Alexander Borodin voor harmonieorkest. Borodin begon in 1869 aan de opera, Prins Igor, volgens sommigen zijn voornaamste werk. De opera bevat deze Polovetser Dansen,die meestal als een zelfstandig stuk wordt uitgevoerd en in deze vorm waarschijnlijk zijn meest bekende compositie is. Bij zijn dood was de opera niet volledig, daar hij onvoldoende tijd had voor componeren, gezien zijn werkals scheikundige. De opera werd postuum afgemaakt door Nikolaj Rimski-Korsakov en Aleksandr Glazoenov.Masamic z Amano nahm sich die beliebten Polovetzer Tänze des russischen Komponisten Alexander Borodin vor, die auch schon im Musical Kismet verwendet und als Lied von Tony Bennet, Bing Crosby und den Four Aces interpretiert wurden. Amano schuf daraus ein überzeugendes Arrangement für Blasorchester, in dem die Snare Drum solistisch glänzen darf. Les Danses polovtsiennes offrent l’exemple le plus spectaculaire de l’exotisme musical russe, d’une sensualité pre, sauvage, et d’une rare virtuosité orchestrale. Ce divertissement dansé et chanté en plusieurs épisodes, quintessence de l'opéra Le Prince Igor (1879), contient tout ce qui suscita la faveur de l'Europe fin XIXe : désir d'ailleurs, attraction pour un Orient plus rêvé que réel. Masamicz Amano en a réalisé une version étonnante pour Orchestre d’Harmonie avec un délicieux solo de caisse claire.Le Polovtsian Dances offrono l’esempio più spettacolare dell’esotismo musicale russo, fatto di una sensualit selvaggia e di una rara virtuosit orchestrale. Questo divertimento ballato e cantato in vari episodi, quintessenza dell’opera Il Principe Igor (1879), contiene tutto ciò che l’Europa del XIX secolo adora: desiderio di posti lontani, attrazione per un oriente più sognato che reale. L’arrangiamento di Masamicz Amano propone un delizioso assolo per rullante.

The Four Aces hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with this ballad from the movie of the same name. Originally an instrumental-only title song, lyrics were added to make it Best Original Song eligible, a category that it won in 1955. Mark Hayes once again gives us an arrangement that is musically satisfying and beautifully expressive.

French composer and teacher, Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) was a prolific composer of the 20th Century as a member of 'Les Six'. His compositions remain highly regarded, Four Faces being no exception. Milhaud's compositions areinfluenced by jazz and polytonality, as exemplified in Four Faces. The fourth of Four Faces, The Parisian Woman, is an alternative, exciting piece for advanced violists. Composed in 1943, Milhaud makes use of harmonics, complexrhythms, ornamentation, altering time signatures and clefs, double stops, variation in dynamics and a wide tessitura, among other aspects. Milhaud's Four Faces is essential to all aspiring violists.

“The adaptation of Brahms' four symphonies by the composer Friedrich Hermann (1828-1907), written during the composer's lifetime and published one year after his death, in 1898, are exemples of how this orchestral effect can be created through the addition of another pianist. Hermann called them 'works for pianoforte 4 hands with violin and violoncello.'Memb ers of piano trios have repeatedly expressed the desire for a usable chamber version of the Double Concerto, Op. 102 of Brahms; this wish is now being granted for the first time with the transference of the orchestral material in the spirit of Friedrich Hermann.Taking the concerto character into consideration, the solo parts are only added to complete the piano part in the grand tutti of the first movement and in other brief tutti sections; this work is not to be regarded as a piano trio in the traditional sense. In a few places, the dynamics (originally conceived for the large orchestral apparatus) have been carefully adjusted to fulfil the requirements of balance and transparency so necessary in chamber music.”(Cor d Garben).
