Apocalypse is a hard-hitting, up-tempo rock tune with the feel of a cataclysmic event, and when combined with the composer’s signature driving rock feel, makes for a winning combination! Written solidly at the medium easy level, this tune features repetitive rhythms and patterns that guarantee you will be performance ready with a minimum of rehearsal time. Scored for limited instrumentation, with careful attention to instrument ranges, and written out solos over easy changes, Apocalypse will be accessible to the smallest and youngest ensembles, as well as a lot of fun for more advanced groups. Loaded with student and audience appeal, this tune is an ideal contest/concert selection. Guaranteed to rock every time you play it!

Piano Sonata No. 4 from the years 1962-1964 is dedicated to the memory of Fiser's friend, the pianist Antonin Jemelik, who died tragically. As a tribute to their friendship the composer incorporated into the introduction a quotation from their favourite work, Piano Sonata No. 10, Op. 70, by Alexander Scriabin. The tragedy of the death of the composer's friend pervades the emotionally intense passage of unison octaves which follows the three-bar quotation. From a compositional point of view this work is a masterpiece of the mid-Sixties. Written as one movement, the piece is divided into numerous mutually contrasting segments which themselves are clearly grouped into two sections, exposition and development. The individual themes are introduced in the first section and thematically expanded in the second section. The motif treatment lies almost exclusively in the fragmenting or curtailing of the theme, or in the use of a combination of several themes, for the most part brief and eloquent. This compositional method, together with a clear-cut manner of execution, mainly semitonal melody and sharply contrastive dynamics, lends force and transparency to the piece. Piano Sonata No. 4 was completed in 1964 together with Symphonic Fresco, Concerto da camera for piano and orchestra and Fifteen Prints after Durer's Apocalypse and has earned its rightful place alongside them as masterpieces of Fiser's oeuvre.The work was first performed by Pavel Stepan in Prague's Rudolfinum in 1965. The new setting for this piece is based on the single edition to date (Panton, 1969); only with regard to a few inconsistencies in the score was it necessary to consult the composer's manuscript (kept at the National Museum - Czech Museum of Music).

The composer writes: These three pieces are based on movements from my Mass of the Apocalypse, commissioned for the 300th anniversary of St James' Church, Piccadilly and recorded by the St James' Singers/Ivor Bolton. They are dedicated to Peter Sheppard Sk''rved and the Kreutzer Quartet in gratitude for their outstanding CD of my chamber music released early in 2020. They gave the first performance of the Three Pieces, which was filmed and streamed in November 2020, but the live premiere was given by the Gildas Quartet in the William Alwyn Festival at Southwold Church on 8 October 2021..

Jean Ignace Isidore Gerard, a 19th Century French caricaturist, is not well-known in Japan. The composer was inspired to compose Fiddle after seeing Grandville's work, Apocalypse du ballet, which expresses continuous patterns of transformative objects in a sense of disorienting beauty. Although all four instruments are responsible for four individual melodies, they are not subjected to fixed pitches and textures (extended techniques such as sul ponticello and sul tasto are used), and are intended to create a merged acoustic fabric that is in constant transformation.

“Oryx and Crake†tells the story of the only human survivor on Earth. In flashbacks, revealing only bit by bit, we must ourselves puttogether the pieces of the drama that lead to the apocalypse. The opera unfolds within 24 hours, beginning at dawn and finishing thenext morning. Atwood's love-triangle offers plenty of classic music drama, her dystopia is painted in complex, industrial soundscapes and the post-armageddon solitude in contemporary-contemplative open spaces. Electronics extend and augment the orchestral colors and help achieving the unreal “haunted†atmosphere and the different reality levels of the protagonist's memory.
