What would love be without music - or music without love! Many couples associate unforgettable beautiful hours, a first meeting, or first kiss with a particular song. And composers have always been inspired and stimulated by love, have celebrated romantic love and longing from afar, secret love, and jealousy. In her selection of 80 songs from seven centuries, Mirjam James evokes this tremendous feeling with the most beautiful songs ranging from medieval courtly songs, through Beethoven's Ich liebe dich, to the Beatles song And I love her. Many of the songs come from German and English language traditions, but what would such a book be without the fire of southern Europe or a dose of French charm, without the moving melodies of cool northern climes, or the melancholy songs of the Russian soul? A vocal score has been published which contains all of the the songs in the new Carus book of lovesongs in easily playable accompaniments. For many of these songs choral settings by famous composers such as John Dowland, Thomas Morley, Thomas Tallis or Thoinot Arbeau have been adopted, wherever possible, in their original form. In addition, well-known and familiar original settings by Beethoven, Brahms, Benjamin Britten, and other composers will be found in this collection. Songs with entirely new accompaniments have also been included, resulting in a collection of lovesongs offering a distinctive stylistic variety suitable for many different occasions. Score available separately - see item CA.240800.

In the entire history of pop and rock, no band has so dominated the music scene as original brit-poppers the Beatles did in the 1960s. For this medley for string quartet, four songs were selected that show the musical range of the Fab Four: from the powerful Help! through the romantic evergreen Yesterday and the rock classic A Hard Dayâ??s Night to the passionate anthem All You Need Is Love.

In de Pop and Rock geschiedenis heeft geen enkele ander band de muziekscene zo gedomineerd als The Beatles tijdens de jaren zestig. In deze medley voor strijkkwartet zijn vier songs geselecteerd die de muzikale verscheidenheid van de Fab Four goed weerspiegelen: van het krachtige Help! via de romantische evergreen Yesterday en de rockklassieker A Hard Dayâ??s Night tot het hartstochtelijke All You Need Is Love.

In der gesamten Geschichte der Pop- und Rockmusik gab es keine andere Band, die die Musikszene so beherrscht hat, wie es bei der britischen Popband The Beatlesâ?? in den 1960er Jahren der Fall war. Für dieses Medley für Streichquartett wurden vier Stücke ausgewählt, welche die musikalische Bandbreite der Fab Fourâ?? (berühmten Vierâ??) zeigen: vom mitreiÃ?enden Help! über den klassischen Evergreen Yesterday und den Rock-Klassiker A Hard Dayâ??s Night bis hin zu der leidenschaftlichen Hymne All You Need Is Love.

Dans lâ??histoire du pop et du rock, aucun groupe nâ??a autant marqué les esprits que le groupe de Britpop The Beatles dans les années 1960. Ce medley pour quatuor cordes regroupe quatre chansons représentant lâ??individualité de ces quatre musiciens : du puissant Help ! en passant par le romantique Yesterday et le classique du rock A Hard Dayâ??s Night jusquâ?? lâ??hymne All You Need Is Love.
