Par SIMPSON ROBERT. Robert Simpson's Symphony #9 is a powerful experience. There is mystery and a sense of concentrated intensity here carried in a single monumental movement driven by one basic pulse. Simpson composed this work for the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and it was first performed by them, conducted by Vernon Handkley, at Poole in Dorset, On 8 April 1987. This item is the full conductor's score containing full Orchestral score. 'There are few musical minds in the world capable of completing such a large and complex symphonic structure,. . .' Paul Driver, The Sunday Times, 26 April 1987/ Répertoire / Conducteur

Par MAW NICHOLAS. Written for Melinda Maxwell and the Orchestra of St. John's Smith Square to commemorate the orchestra's twenty first anniversary. the happy surprise, of his Little Concert. . . beneath the graceful long lines and jig-like spurts of a solo part expressly written for Melinda Maxwell, Maw finds time and space enough to draw quite long-range implications from his basic motif of a semitone plus a major third, and to insert some of his special, densely poetic harmonies. Bayan Northcott, The Independent, 6 June 1988. Scored for Oboe solo, two Horns, two Violins, Viola, Cello and Double Bass. / Niveau : Elémentaire / Répertoire / Conducteur

Par HARVEY JONATHAN. Bhakti was written in 1982, to a commission from IRCAM, Paris. It is in twelve short movements totalling about fifty minutes. There are 36 subsections - each one defined by a certain number of instruments playing a certain pitch cell. As there are only 12 types of subsection, each occurs (with variation) 3 times, thus making for repetitions over the course of the work. Scored for a chamber group fo 15 instrumentalists and quadraphonic tape./ Répertoire / Conducteur

Par ANDERSON JULIAN. A collection of eight engagingly quirky miniatures from 1997, Julian Anderson’s Poetry Nearing Silence was inspired by the work of artist Tom Phillips. The highly contrasted, often bizarre juxtapositions of Phillips’s The Heart of a Humument – whichsees him ‘treating’ an obscure late Victorian novel by selecting certain words and phrases, and then painting over the rest of each page – are mirrored in vividly imagined music whose pithy energy creates a playful, virtuoso tour de force for allseven instruments.

Par MAW NICHOLAS. Commissioned by the Nash Ensemble with funds from the Art Council of Great Britain and IBM. This is an atmospheric, highly allusive, and appealing suite of dance references. Maw's titles and tempo indications suggest a fashionably vampiric nightmare, but the music sounded warm and lyrical as often as cold and frenzied. . . the chill chimes of small cymbals and the gentle plunking of a kalimba became the essential components of a transfigured epilogue John Henken, Los Angeles Times, 2 December 1992 / Niveau : Assez Facile / Répertoire / Conducteur

King Arthur (Arr. Laurie). Par PURCELL HENRY. King Arthur was the only one of Purcell's professionally produced operas to have been designed as a semi-opera - the others were all adaptations of earlier plays. Dryden made a real attempt to integrate the music into the drama, but since he ascribed to the dramatic conventions of the period which virtually confined music to allegorical or supernatural beings and thier worshippers, or servants, shepherds and similar characters, the main action mostly occurs in the spoken sections, and even the two singing characters, Philidel and Grimbald speak more than they sing. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Rép Classique / Répertoire / Conducteur

Par ADES THOMAS. This piece takes its title from a painting by Daniel Maclise (1806-1870) in the Manchester City Art Gallery. Its subject is the mock Celtic Legend of a water nymph who falls for a mortal and struggles hopelessly to leave her element and join him on land. The Gods, taking pity on her failure, intervene and turn her into a harp, transforming her weeping into a gentle music of wind through strings./ Répertoire / Conducteur
