Adagio (score)

Joseph Horovitz. Suite of five pieces for brass quintet: two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba. Full Score. This work was composed in 1964 at the request of the well known American tuba player Roger Bobo. It was soon taken into the repertoire of the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, who gave the first BBC broadcast. The first recording was on Pye records, by the Hallé Brass Ensemble. Since then it has become a regular repertoire piece and recorded as well as broadcast all over the world. The Suite consists of five movements, all illustrating aspects of the Burlesque Theatre, Music Hall, circus and cabaret, so popular at the end of the 19th century and into the 20th. The titles of the short movements are: Soubrette Song, Trick Cyclists, Adagio Team, Soft Shoe Shuffle and Les Girls. The five orchestral brass instruments (two trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba) are exploited in a chamber music manner, but the cumulative effect has a theatrical quality in keeping with the title. / Scores

Italian Baroque composer Domenico Zipoli (1688-1726) is best remembered as the most accomplished musician among Jesuit missionaries. All his works were greatly influenced by his religion and his Adagio for Oboe Cello Organ or Harpsichord and String Orchestra is an exciting addition to the repertoire. Having received lessons from some of the best composers of his day including Alessandro Scarlatti Zipoli embarked upon a successful career as an organist and composer. Scored for Oboe Cello Organ and Strings Adagio is a calm yet stately piece often played today at weddings andfunerals. Zipoli's Adagio makes for a sublime performance work for Baroque ensembles.

Concert Pieces from the Clarinet Method. Par BAERMANN CARL. The clarinet method op. 63 by Carl Baermann from 1867 is still a standard work in classical clarinet education today. The thoroughly revised new edition aims at reviewing the educational concept, which is still valid today, for modern lessons, adjusting the music and texts, and sensibly complementing the teaching contents. The editor who draws on many years of experience as a clarinettist in an orchestra and university lecturer of clarinet has succeeded in adapting the valuable teaching material to the requirements of today while maintaining the basic methodology. The result is a total of 7 volumes: Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 (ED 21761, ED 21762) Clarinet Method Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, with 2 CDs each (ED 21761-50, ED 21762-50): The CDs contain the piano accompaniment for the performance pieces, with and without clarinet Tune Book 1 and 2 (ED 21763, ED 21764): piano score of the method\'s performance pieces, with additional inserted clarinet part Daily Exercises (ED 21765): systematic scale, interval and chord exercises in all keys, complemented and published separately from the original method Due to trilingual nature of all editions (German, English, French), they can be used universally. About the revision: The musical text is based on the first edition of the method. Only a few differences concerning the articulation as well as some misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. The content of the text and the performance directions of the original were linguistically modernized and occasionally extended by further ideas from the teaching practice, such as concepts for warming up, breathing exercises, literature suggestions or tips for daily practising. Further additions of scale and triad studies in all major and minor keys make this method a comprehensive and thorough work of study which not only serves as teaching material for young and adult beginners, but is also a valuable compendium of scale exercises and studies for advanced musicians and is ideal for training velocity and dexterity. The tune books contain all performance pieces from the Clarinet Method Op. 63 by Carl Baermann for clarinet and piano. Thanks to the revised editions, they are now available as scores with inserted solo part for the first time. Thus, the popular performance pieces and studies can also be used separately from the textbook ? as an addition to the repertoire of music lessons or simply as a collection of attractive performance pieces for pupils and advanced clarinettists. As with the two volumes of the Clarinet Method, the musical text of the tune books is based on the first edition of the method, and only few differences concerning articulation as well as several misprints and typographical errors were revised. By deleting the historical fingering instructions for the German fingering system, the clarinet method not only has a clean and, compared to the original, more clearly structured layout, but can also be used universally. / Éducatif / Recueil / Clarinette en Bb et Piano

Elegie (Adagio) - Polka (Allegretto)-Two pieces for String Quartet: Elegy (Adagio) and Polka (Allegretto) as composed by Dmitri Shostakovich. Score and Parts.

The story centres on the English princess Caroline Mathilde (1751-1775) sister of George III who at the age of 15 was sent to Denmark to marry the 17-year-old eccentric and schizophrenic Danish King Christian VII. The balletportrays her unhappy marriage the King's growing madness and her fatal love-affair with Struensee the King's influential physician which leads to their arrest his execution and her exile at the age of 20 separated from hertwo young children.This suite begins with the act's opening number: a boisterous stamping dance to which the people rudely mock Queen Caroline Mathilde and her lover Struensee. After this comes a dark Adagio The Conspiracy in which the theme passes like persuasion from mouth to mouth its variations suggesting the different attitudes of the conspirators firmly controlled by the brass-driven gestures of the Queen Dowager. The conspiracy then worksitself out at a court masked ball from which the suite includes two dances: a gavotte and a slow lubricious passacaglia that is a pas de deux for Caroline Mathilde and Struensee. The Arrest comes with a gathering rush of musicthat envelops the King the Queen and Struensee leading to a vociferous climax in which they are held apart. In The Execution slow white music for wordless female voices harp and low strings is interrupted by pathetic alienated outbursts from the King. The suite ends as does the ballet with a quiet adagio lament for clarinets and alto flute as the Queen goes into exile.Score. Duration c. 33mins.

Carl Rütti's choral music is 'sensuous and exuberant by turns combining dazzling rhythms and soaring melodies with distinctively lush harmonies' (Choir and Organ Magazine).The composer writes: 'The Three Carols were initiated in 1996 by my friend Stephen Jackson (conductor of the BBC Symphony Chorus) for a Carol concert by the Wooburn Singers to whom they are also dedicated. They were originally written for brass quintet and choir. I picked three texts out of the enormous choice of traditional Carols which could form three parts: Andante - Adagio - Presto.'The three carols are: I Wonder as I Wander (Andante) O Little Town of Bethlehem(Adagio) and Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day (Presto).
