Since the last movement of this piece, which is perhaps the most beautiful of Hindemith's pieces, is a chorale, a version for string instrument plus organ is the obvious work to publish. Thus, 'Trauermusik' can now be performed in churches as well.Versions of 'Trauermusik' for viola or violin or violoncello with piano have been available for quite some time. Now, organists too can include this famous and moving music in their repertoire. / Violoncelle Et Orgue

Simon Holt's 1985 composition, Tauromaquia is named after a series of etchings by Goya, all of which are studies of the art of bullfighting. This piece for Piano solo was commissioned by Ian Brown, who gave the first performance in 1987, and delivers great bravura with knife-edge intensity and power. Duration 10 minutes.
