Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: A Musical Joke KV 522: Piano Duet

Salzburg birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart inspired Dutch composer Henk Hogestein to write this musical tribute. Mozart was born in this charming Austrian town in January 1756. He was a musical prodigy - at the age of four he began receiving lessons from his father Leopold and at the age of six he was composing smart minuets and other short pieces. The composition Charming Salzburg is based on a theme from Mozart's opera Die Zauberflöte which he completed in 1791. The greatest composer of his day - the greatest of all time according to some - the brilliant Mozart wrote some of the world's best operas with Die Zauberflöte was his last.

for 2 Violins Viola Basso and 2 Horns-Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's A Musical Joke is filled with intentional mistakes by the composer who inserted odd notes into this amusing and mischievous piece in order to take an angry side-swipe atdilettante composer-colleagues of his time whose lack of imagination and artless compositional technique are here mercilessly demonstrated - the piece was not intended to parody musicians who play wrong notes as its later title?Village Musicians? suggests. A musical and intellectual delight for today?s performers and audiences alike this piece is now performable for the first time using a genuine Urtext quality edition based onthe autograph in Berlin. A Musical Joke is scored for 2 Violins Viola Basso and 2 Horns in F.

arranged for Oboe and Piano-The Oboe Quartet in F major K. 370/368b was written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in early 1781. The quartet originally arranged for oboe violin viola and cello is presented in this edition for Oboe with Piano accompaniment. In 1780 Mozart was invited to Munich to visit Elector Karl Theodor who had commissioned the opera Idomeneo for a carnival celebration. While in Munich Mozart renewed an acquaintance with Friedrich Ramm a virtuoso oboist in the Munich orchestra. It was for Ramm that Mozart composed the quartet in order to show off his virtuosity and the improvements that had been made to the oboe at that time. One way that this piece showed off theinstrument was the use of the 'high F' above the staff a note rarely played in any repertoire previously written for the oboe. This piece is a work of chamber music but it has elements that harken to other musical genres and requires a fair amount of virtuosity. Because of its large amount of virtuosic playing on the part of the oboe and the large degree to which the strings simply accompany the oboist it almost resembles a concerto but with only with four players instead of an entire orchestra. Despite this there are also a number of places within the work that require ensemble playing for example the famous 13-bar passage in the finale in which the oboe plays in common time against a 6/8 accompaniment.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composa de nombreuses sonates pour piano et violon. La sonate en mi mineur KV 304 (300c) qui fut composé en 1778 fait partie des six 'sonates avec partie de violon équivalente'. Contrairement aux 'sonates avecl?accompagnement de violon' que Mozart composa auparavant le piano et le violon mènent un dialogue musical à parts égales.1-4 Allegro5-8 Tempo di Menuetto

Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Mozart Requiem (K.626) (Ostrzyga completion) (Full Score) This publication offers a source-critical edition of Mozart’s fragmentary “Requiem” as well as an alternative to the traditional Süssmayr version. It makes it possible to perform 1) the fragment, identified in print in both the score and the parts, 2) the authentic sections left incomplete by Mozart, now in a stylistically appropriate orchestration, and 3) those sections missing entirely in the fragment, newly added in Mozart’s idiom taking into account historical additions by Süssmayr and Eybler. When completing the fragment, the editor drew on comprehensive comparative and analytical studies of Mozart’s church style and compositional workmanship. The influence of Handel and Bach manifested in his final years, particularly in the “Requiem” fragment, is taken into account in those sections requiring completion or fresh composition. At two points readers may choose between alternative movements (or sections), since proceeding from Süssmayr’s historical version, two divergent options cannot be weighed against each other but each one may well reflect Mozart’s intentions: the “Lacrimosa” may end with or without “Amen” fugue, and the “Sanctus” may begin in the customary D major or in D minor. Above all, this makes it possible to retain the B-flat major “Hosanna” from Süssmayr’s autograph, a movement which, until now, has not been appreciated as compositionally flawless. - Scholarly-critical edition of the “Requiem” fragment - With performance material for presentation of 1) the fragment, 2) a version with completions of the authentic Mozart sections or 3) a full completion consistent with Mozart’s musical idiom - Missing sections were completed by drawing from other fragmentary sacred works by Mozart - Added or completed sections incorporate influences from Bach and Handel already detectable in the fragment - Alternative performance options for the “Lacrimosa”, “Sanctus” and “Benedictus” - Straight-forward piano reduction - Extensive foreword (Ger/Eng) on the work’s history, reception and modern completions, with analytical stylistic critique - Detailed Critical Commentary (Eng), partly available on the Bärenreiter website - Tried and tested on many occasions, e.g. at Harvard University, the Rheingau Music Festival, the Monadnock Music Festival (New Hampshire), in Salt Lake City (Utah), as well as in radio broadcasts (NDR, SWR, WDR) and CD recordings with Concerto Köln, Chorwerk Ruhr and Florian Helgath (“Le Disque classique du jour” from francemusique.fr and three nominations for Opus Klassik 2021 in the categories “Ensemble”, “Choral Recording” and “Editorial Achievement”) - Full Score (BA11310), Vocal Score (BA11310-90) and performance material (BA11310) available for sale / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Chœur Mixte SATB et Orchestre

Krönungsmesse. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Mozart’s Missa in C K. 317, erroneously dubbed the “Coronation Mass, ” is among the most popular and most often performed works in this genre. The autograph of the Mass, which in many respects is very enlightening, was regarded as having been lost following the end of World War II, but was discovered at the end of the 1970s, it is preserved among the musical treasures contained in the Biblioteka Jagiellonska in Krakó w. Ulrich Leisinger, the editor, prepared the edition based upon what is, without a doubt, the only authentic source, although additionally in the Critical Report he has also consulted an early copy of the Mass [by Fügerl], since such later copies often help toclarify questions concerning historical performance practice. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Hautbois, 2 Cors, 2
