Concert Symphony

for flute and clarinet-Dimitri Chostakovitch (1906-1975) fut un compositeur et pianiste russe. Sa personnalité novatrice s?affirma très tôt avec ses deux premières symphonies et son opéra Le Nez (1928). En 1936 il achève la composition de son second opéra Lady Macbeth qui fut violemment critiqué dans la Pravda. Chostakovitch devint ainsi officiellement un 'ennemi du peuple' accusation qui dans l?URSS des années 30 précédait bien souvent une déportation. Il est hanté par des idées de suicide qui ne cesseront de le tourmenter toute sa vie. La Symphonie n° 4 (1935-1936) est le reflet de son état psychologique de l?époque. Cette œuvre bouleversante ne sera créée qu?un 1961.Selon la version officielle Chostakovitch retira de lui-même son œuvre la jugeant imparfaite. Mais il est bien plus vraisemblable qu?il ait cédé à des pressions exercées par des hautes instances. Obligé de faire des concessions Chostakovitch donne à sa musique des accents plus traditionnels. Chostakovitch est l?auteur d?une abondante production : opéras ballets musiques de film oratorios concertos symphonies musique de chambre etc.La carrière de compositeur pour le cinéma débute en 1929 avec La Nouvelle Babylone et se poursuit toute sa vie durant jalonnée de succès comme la trilogie La Jeunesse de Maxime le Retour de Maxime et Du côté de Viborg (1934-1938) qui valut au compositeur le Prix Staline. Cette valse est extraite de la musique du film La Jeunesse de Maxime. Ed Keeley en a réalisé un bel arrangement pour un duo Flûte traversière et Clarinette et Orchestre d?Harmonie.

Par DVORAK ANTONIN. This arrangement was written for Norwegian School Band Madlamark Skolekorps to their participation at the Norwegian Championships 2023. The arrangement will work excellent also for a wind ensemble (one player to each part), but the clarinet parts should always be doubled. Euphonium II is optional, but it’s recommended to use also this when there are two players or more on this instrument. Concerning percussion, timpani is the most important part, but it’s recommended to also cover cymbals and mallet percussion. The articulation and dynamics are kept as close as possible to the original version by Dvorak. However, some changes has been made to make it more suitable for a wind instrumentation. The timpani part is identical to the original version except for some places when the trumpet signals are doubled in the timpani part. Staccato notation should not be played short here, but rather separated. At faster passages, the music should be played endurant or legato if possible. This arrangement is a good opportunity to perform music of highest quality where musicality, phrasing, balance and intonation are very important, and, where each musician and part are deeply involved in the music making. / Date parution : 2023-07-31/ Répertoire / Concert Band/Harmonie

Haydn's Symphony No.8 is the final piece in his triptych on the times of the day consisting of the symphonies Le Matin Le Midi and Le Soir (Hoboken I:6-8). The cycle originated in 1761 on a commission from Haydn's patron Prince Anton Esterházy. Whether the Prince was hoping for a counterpart to Vivaldi's famous concertos on the four seasons or pursued a different idea can no longer be determined. It was doubtless the purpose of these concertante symphonies to present to a select audience the Prince's chamber ensemble which had been assembled or expanded that spring as well as its new conductor. The pieces are laid out on a large scale full of pomp andsplendour and the scoring at times divided into thirteen separate parts offers virtually every player an opportunity to display his prowess as a soloist.At that time the Esterházy ensemble was made up of six or seven players of the violin or viola (the seventh was actually retained as a flautist) one player each of the violoncello and violone two oboists doubling on flute two horn players and a bassoonist. This listing includes Haydn himself who conducted the ensemble from the first violinist's desk. Contrary to a widely held belief there was no harpsichord. Indeed the only genres that employed a keyboard instrument at that time in the Viennese area were vocal - namely operas cantatas and church music.Urtext from Joseph Haydn WerkeFull score & parts (BA4673) available for sale

Outre 4 concertos pour piano Sergei Rachmaninov (1873-1943) a également écrit quelques symphonies. Le solo de clarinette extrait de ladagio de sa deuxième symphonie opus 27 est sans doute lune des plus belles mélodies de cette période.

Malgré sa courte vie Mozart (1756-1791) a écrit plus de 600 uvres. Ses symphonies et ses opéras sont sans doute les plus connus du grand public. Ses nombreux concertos pour piano sont également très populaires et très souvent joués. Mozart a également écrit un concerto pour clarinette dont le deuxième mouvement est célèbre partout dans le monde. Georges Moreau en a réalisé une adaptation fidèle qui vous permet de mettre en valeur votre soliste. Son uvre existe en deux versions : la version originale (4 dièses) et une version plus facile avec seulement un bémol pour le soliste.

Par PART ARVO. Chad Smith, Artistic Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, has long nurtured the desire to commission a new work by Arvo Pärt. When the Los Angeles Philharmonic submitted this idea to Arvo Pärt in February 2007, the suggestion came at precisely the right moment. Pärt was working at that time with an ancient canon in Church Slavonic containing a prayer to a guardian angel - the connection to 'Los Angeles' was irresistible. Pärt was further inspired to take the commission by the idea of seeing this work performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic, one of the best orchestras in the world, under its music director Esa-Pekka Salonen, and in the Walt Disney Concert Hall, one of the most exciting concert buildings of our time. The Canberra International Music Festival / Ars Musica Australis and the Sydney Conservatorium of Music joined the project as co-commissioners, thanks to the committed work of director Chris Latham. It may come as a surprise that it has taken so long (37 years) for Pärt to produce his fourth symphony. Symphony No. 3 emerged in 1971, in a time of transition before Pärt had fully developed the 'Tintinnabuli style' which he still employs today. Since developing this style, Pärt has not written any orchestral works which could be called 'symphonic' in scope or structure. With Symphony No. 4, which he calls 'Los Angeles', he creates a reference to this essential phase in his compositional life. Symphony No. 4 incorporates Pärt's 'These Words…' for string orchestra, which was premiered in May 2008 in Copenhagen. As was previously seen in some of Pärt's early instrumental works, all parameters of the text (number of syllables, inflection, punctuation etc) play a decisive role in the structure of the composition. Arvo Pärt has dedicated Symphony No. 4 'Los Angeles' to Mikhail Khodorkovsky./ Répertoire / Orchestre à Cordes, Harpe, Timbales et Percussion

According to his teachers Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) was not particularly gifted. His special talents were acknowledged only in 1865 when he had been working for the Ministry of Finances for some years. In 1866 he was appointed teacher at the Conservatory and applied himself to composing. His oeuvre is fairly extensive and many of his compositions receive a high ranking on the international list of classical music including his six symphonies solo concertos (violin concerto and piano concertos) ballets (The Nut Cracker Swan Lake) and his overtures (1812 and Romeo and Juliette). In 1893 Tchaikovsky died of Cholera after drinking a glass of infectedwater. His Slavonic March is a popular concert piece for symphonic orchestra that is still frequently performed in concert halls. David Well arranged the theme and created a contemporary march in rock style. Tchaikovsky once said to an unsatisfied teacher: ‘I will be a great composer within 10 years time.’
