The four dances featured in this new volume aim to complement individual instrumental teaching and to develop the studentsâ?? taste for ensemble playing. De vier dansen in Four by Four zijn bedoeld als aanvulling op de individuele studie, en vooral gericht op de ontwikkeling van de belangstelling van de student voor het ensemblespel. De arrangementen zijn speciaal geschrevenvoor instrumentalisten die al twee of drie jaar spelen. In deze kwartetten heeft elke partij een specifieke, essentiële rol te vervullen op het melodische, ritmische en harmonische vlak.Vier Tänze für vier Violinen. Die Tänze in Four by Four sollen vor allem den SpaÃ? am gemeinsamen Musizieren wecken. In diesen Quartetten kommt jeder Stimme eine besondere Rolle zu, sowohl in melodischer als auch in rhythmischer und harmonischer Hinsicht. Les quatre danses qui composent ce recueil ont pour objectif de compléter la formation individuelle et, surtout, de faire aimer la musique dâ??ensemble. Les arrangements ont été spécialement écrits pour des violonistes ayant déj 2 ou 3 années de pratique. Dans ces quatuors, chaque partie a un rôle précis et indispensable, que ce soit au niveau mélodique, rythmique, ou encore harmonique.MULBERRY BUSHCette célèbre danse traditionnelle anglaise, caractérisée par un 6/8 allant, débute par une exposition du thème, dâ??abord lâ??unisson octavié, puis sous forme de mélodie harmonisée. Contrastant avec lâ??introduction, un développement de la mélodie sâ??ensuit, soutenu par des notes en valeurslongues. Une reprise du thème mène le développement vers une conclusion colorée.HAURRAK IKA SUZUELa gaieté se manifeste dès lâ??introduction de cette danse traditionnelle caractère ostinato ternaire. Lâ??accompagnement de la quatrième voix nous plonge dans un mouvement de valse malgré le chiffrage de mesure en 6/8. La mélodie est alternativement exposée par les première et quatrième voix tandis que les deuxième et troisième voix, plus discrètes, développent un soutien harmonique.BOUBLITCKHYCette danse aux accents typiquement russes est particulièrement intéressante dans la mesure où elle permet aux instrumentistes dâ??élaborer une lecture très personnelle. Malgré les indications de tempos, lâ??interprétation reste libre, dégageant un charme unique mêlant joie et nostalgie.DANSE BASQUE ESPAGNOLEDès les premières mesures de cette charmante Danse basque espagnole, la musique dépeint lâ??ambiance de cette magnifique région dâ??Espagne. Lâ??introduction lâ??unisson affirme admirablement le mode mineur quand survient, le mode Majeur. Le contraste est saisissant. La mécanique dâ??opposition entre Majeur et mineur sâ??installe et se répète avant dâ??aboutir une conclusion brève mais déterminée. Lâ??insegnamento di uno strumento è spesso individuale. Seppure necessario, questo approccio resta insufficiente per rispondere alle esigenze pedagogiche di oggi. Le quattro danze (Mulberry Bush, Haurrak Ika Suzue, Boublitchky, Danza basca spagnola) di questa raccolta hanno lo scopo di completare lâ??insegnamento individuale e, soprattutto, di far amare la musica dâ??ensemble.

Pian o duet score. 1st performance Ellesmere College, January 1986 by Richard Markham and David Nettle. Duration c.24 minutes. The work is in three movements and the musical thought is symphonic. The first movement (based entirely on the opening motive) goes through a series of paragraphs which eventually culminate in an extended melodic line played entirely by the treble player. The middle movement is a playful Scherzo with a rather sardonic waltz for its Trio. The slow movement (which comes last) is much more relaxed and concentrates on a D major motive with sharpened fourths, but the more intense moods of the first movement return in a suddenly impassioned middle section.

'Four Thousand Holes is my own effort to re-appropriate and reclaim for myself something of my own musical past. For the first time since my days as a rocker, I've chosen to restrict myself to major and minor triads - those most basic elements of Western music (both pop and classical). But I've tried to assimilate them fully into my own musical world. Approaching these simple chords as found objects, I've superimposed them in multiple streams of tempo, to create darker harmonies and lush fields of sound. In recent years, I've been fortunate enough to form a close musical partnership with Stephen Drury. Steve's extraordinary gifts inspired me to explore expansive forms and textures (similar to those of my orchestral music) with only one or two performers, In essence, Four Thousand Holes is a concerto. To begin I composed the score for the electronic tracks. Steve recorded all of the individual chords that occur in the score. I took these recordings, time-stretched them, reversed their envelopes, and knit the reversed sounds together with their original decays. The resulting waves of sound I layered into ten independent tracks to create the virtual 'orchestra'. Next I composed the Piano part, articulating the peaks of all the electronic tracks simultaneously - a feat of coordination that demands considerable virtuosity from the pianist. Finally I composed another multi-layered part for metallic percussion sounds that I think of as sparks emanating from the piano. In Four Thousand Holes, strong musical currents fall and rise, again and again, as points and lines are juxtaposed with heavy, hammered chords. The mix of 'live' and electronic sounds blurs the distinction between musical figure and ground. As in much of my recent music, I conceive of the entire piece as a single complex sonority that evolves slowly. As we settle into the sound, we begin to hear longer lines, counterpoint, and maybe even the occasional trace of a tune.' - John Luther Adams.

Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen 's Four Madrigals From The Natural World for 6-12 part mixed chorus. This piece incorporates texts by Les Murray. ' FOUR MADRIGALS to texts by the Australian poet Les Murray are composed of two songs (Bats' Ultrasound and The Octave of Elephants) written for the Australian vocal group THE SONG COMPANY, and two songs (Cattle Egret and Comete) from my larger work SOUND / SIGHT, written for the Danish Radio Chamber Choir, but here arranged for six voices. The texts are pictures and situations from - or meditations over - THE NATURAL WORLD. Les Murray's way of approaching this world is not in the least sentimentalor nostalgic: the poems reveal a truebeing-out-there realism: so basically the approach is realistic, but the creating of form elevates the material to an abstractplay, a daring and exuberant poetic language. These poems asked to be set to music. I gave up old idiosyncrasies regarding descriptive music, and surrendered to the madrigal, with its special so-called madrigalisms, which entails also animal-imitations. You will hear this particulary inThe Octave of Elephants. ' - Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen.
