French composer, Charles Gounod (1818-1893) was a prominent in his day, best remembered for his “Ave Maria” and his opera, Faust. 1854 saw the premiere of his Solemn Mass, also known as the St. Cecilia Mass. This work fully established Gounod as a noteworthy composer. Despite being a minor composer to us today, Gounod was famed in his day, so much so that at his funeral, Camille Saint-Saëns played the organ and Gabriel Fauré conducted. Gounod's Solemn Mass proves the composer's extraordinary talent and caught the attention of much of Paris when it was first performed. Famous recordings include that of the Chorus of Radio France with the New Philharmonia Orchestra. For all aspiring choirs, Gounod's St. Cecilia Mass is an imperative, sublime addition to the repertoire.

Shining rays stream from the 'Messe de sainte Cecile'. At first people were dazzled, then bewitched, then overcome. This is how the composer Camille Saint-Saens described his impression of what was probably Charles Gounod's best-known setting of the mass. The work written in 1855 in honor of the patron saint of church music, soon became well-known beyond the borders of France and acquired a degree of popularity like almost no other sacred composition. In the Messe de sainte Cecile, Gounod combines sublime simplicity with operatic-dramatic elements and a colorful, effective orchestration. Critical edition in proven Carus quality.

Die franzosische Musik der zweiten Halfte des 19. Jahrhunderts stand ganz im Zeichen zweier Pole: Oper und Salon. Die weitgehende Missachtung der Instrumentalmusik tragt die Verantwortung fur das falsche Licht, in dem viele franzosische Meister dieser Zeit immer noch erscheinen. Unter ihnen kommt vor allem Charles-Camille Saint-Saens (1835-1921) grosste Bedeutung zu, dessen Auseinandersetzung mit der Gattung des Solokonzerts von weit uber die Grenzen Frankreichs hinausreichendem Einfluss war.Diese Arbeit korrigiert das heutige Bild Saint-Saens' in wesentlichen Punkten und macht deutlich, dass sein konzertantes Oeuvre zum Besten gehort, was die franzosische Romantik hervorgebracht hat.Uber den analytischen Teil hinaus, der durch zahlreiche Notenbeispiele erganzt wird, enthalt der Band die erste vollstandige Biographie des Komponisten in deutscher Sprache; ausfuhrliche Biographie, thematisches Verzeichnis der untersuchten Werke und vor allem eine chronologische Tabelle von nahezu 200 franzosischen Solokonzerten der Zeit machen den Band zu einer wertvollen Quelle fur die Musikgeschichtsschreibung des 19. Jahrhunderts.

A strong new composition for advancing groups, this dark and mysterious piece is both lyrical and lush. Reminiscent of Danse Macabre by Saint-Saëns, this work would be a great addition to any fall concert!.Diabolique (Dya- baw- leek), a. 1. Of the Devil 2. Fiendish: devilish: wicked.Danse Diabolique is a moody piece. It is meant to evoke images of a moonlit Halloween night, alive with fiendish creatures engaged in a demonic dance. Inspired by the work of French composer Camille Saint-Saëns, this piece is best characterized by the expressive marking, sinister.The melody of this 6/8 piece is played in a smooth, legato style in contrast to the crisp pizzicato accompaniment. Care should be taken never to rush the pizzicato passages. Dynamics should be emphasized throughout, and sixteenth notes should be played off the string, with accuracy, in a spiccato style.

“Camille Saint-Saëns (1835-1921) is best known for his Carnival of the Animals and Organ Symphony. Yet, his Fantasy in E flat major arranged for Cornet or Trumpet and Piano remains popular in the advanced repertoire for the instruments. Saint-Saëns entered the Paris Conservatoire at the mere age of thirteen, where he studied Organ and composition. He then went on to have a successful career as an organist and composer, writing his Fantasy in E flat major in 1857. The piece was originally composed for the Organ, but Henri Busser (1872-1973) recognised the work's significance and arranged it for Cornet or Trumpet with Piano accompaniment. To this day, Fantasy in E flat major remains prominent in the advanced brass player's repertoire.â€.

Starke Töne ist eine Sammlung, die in Zusammenarbeit mit der Bläserjugend des Bundes Deutscher Blasmusikverbände (BDB) entstanden ist. Die Sammlung enthält eine Auswahl der beliebtesten Titel aus den Literaturlisten zum Jungmusiker-Leistungsabzeichen Bronze (D1) bzw. Junior. Die Vorteile liegen dabei klar auf der Hand: Die Instrumentalisten sparen mit diesem Buch nicht nur wertvolle Vorbereitungszeit, sondern auch bares Geld, denn wer früher mehrere Hefte anschaffen musste, hat mit Starke Töne bereits das Beste in einem Band versammelt. Somit befriedigt diese Ausgabe eine lang bestehende Nachfrage. In jeder Ausgabe ist jedes Stück mit einerKlavierbegleitung notiert; ursprüngliche Solostücke wurden eigens mit einer neu komponierten Begleitung versehen. Der Klavierpart ist in der Regel einfach bis mittelschwer, sodass die Begleitung auch von fortgeschrittenen Klavierschülern übernommen werden kann.Ein gro�er Vorteil für die Vorbereitung auf die praktischen Leistungsprüfungen ist die jedem Heft beiliegende CD, welche die auf einem echten Konzertflügel aufgenommenen Klavierbegleitungen enthält. Neben Einspielungen im Originaltempo sind die meisten Stücke zum leichteren Einstudieren auch in einer weiteren Version im langsameren Tempo zu hören.Mit Starke Töne ist in Zusammenarbeit mit dem BDB eine wertvolle Sammlung für alle Blasinstrumente und Klavier sowie für Schlagzeug entstanden, die selbstverständlich auch unabhängig von den Leistungsabzeichen das Unterrichts- und Vortragsrepertoire für jede dieser Besetzungen bereichert.
