Inner Demons depicts a man as he loses his mind. This piece contains four themes: a tarantella, a demented waltz, a scherzo, and the Appalachian folk hymn “The Wayfaring Stranger.†The themes are stated quite briskly until arriving at the hymn. This theme consumes the man; it destroys his mind and he melts down. As his mind is slowly rebuilt, his thoughts become increasingly chaotic, until elements of all four themes are heard simultaneously. Inner Demons is an arrangement of movements III and II (in that order) of Garrop’s String Quartet No. 2: Demons and Angels .

Angels and demons are just two of the mythical creatures that appear in Marc Cunningham’s imaginative three-part composition for concert band. The ‘good’ are always shown in opposition to the ‘evil’ in this work. Musically, this con_x001D_flict is expressed as diatonic versus chromatic, consonance versus dissonance, and darker sounds opposed to lighter-sounding sections. Which is victorious at the end of the piece? You might be in for a surprise… Engeltjes en demonen zijn maar enkele van de fantasie_x001F_-figuren die aan bod komen in dit driedelige werk van Marc Cunningham. De componist zet de tegenstellingen van de _x001F_figuren ook muzikaal in de verf door diatoniek tegen chromatiek, consonanten tegen dissonanten en donkere klanken tegen hoge klanken te plaatsen. Wie wint aan het einde? Daarvoor moet u het eerst spelen! Engel und Dämonen“ sind nur einige der mythischen Gestalten, die in Marc Cunninghams fantasievoller dreiteiliger Komposition für Blasorchester Revue passieren. Dabei stellt er immer die Guten“ in Kontrast zu den bösen Kräften. Musikalisch drückt sich dieses Spannungsverhältnis in Diatonik versus Chromatik, Konsonanz versus Dissonanz und dunkle gegenüber heller klingenden Abschnitten aus. Welche Kräfte am Ende siegen? Lassen Sie sich überraschen...Anges et Démons ne contient que quelques unes des _x001C_figures légendaires nées dans le monde fantastique imaginé par Marc Cunningham. Dans cette oeuvre en trois parties composée pour orchestre d’harmonie, les forces du mal et celles du bien s’affrontent de manière incessante. Musicalement, cette tension s’exprime en diatoniques contre chromatiques, en consonances contre dissonances et motifs ténébreux contre passages lumineux. Qui remportera la bataille_x001E_? Vous serez surpris..._x001E_!Angels and Demons (angeli e demoni) sono solo alcuni dei tanti personaggi mitici che _x001E_figurano in questa composizione in tre movimenti nella quale le forze del bene e del male si affrontano incessantemente. Musicalmente questa tensione si esprime in diatonismo contro cromatismo, in consonanze contro dissonanze e motivi tenebrosi in contrasto con motivi luminosi.

In this textural tour de force, a trio of flutes creates unique sound colors and gestures to dramatically depict the archangels Michael (Warrior), Raphael (Healer), and Gabriel (Heralder). Advanced flutists will revel in this remarkable work, an intense and satisfying piece to perform as well as to hear.I have always been fascinated with the concept of archangels – huge, supernatural beings with gigantic wings who visit earth to carry out their heavenly tasks. Archangels are the “chief†angels in Judeo-Christian and Islamic religions. The precise number of these high-ranking celestial beings varies from one religious source to another (typically from four to seven). The three movements of Archangels depict Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel—the three archangels most commonly referenced.Michael is a warrior who is ever vigilant to march into battle against forces of evil. In art, he is often portrayed with his wings spread open in mid-flight and wielding a large sword that is raised into an attack position. The first movement begins in darkness with the foreboding sound of his large, beating wings. Suddenly, Michael appears in all of his terrible glory and wreaks havoc on an army of demons.Raphael is a Hebraic name that translates to “God heals,†and he is in charge of all manners of healing. Artwork of Raphael typically shows him holding a staff, and he is often pictured with the round cheeks associated with a young cherub. In this quiet middle movement, Raphael gently makes his rounds to tend to the sick.Gabriel is the heralder of news. In Christianity, Gabriel’s purpose is quite significant: he appears to Zechariah to announce the forthcoming birth of John the Baptist, and to Mary to announce the forthcoming birth of Jesus. Gabriel is often depicted holding a scepter, a stem of lilies, or an unfurled scroll. In this final movement of the piece, Gabriel trumpets his news for all to hear.

This is the best of me, wrote Edward Elgar after the final measure of his Dream of Gerontius. Premiered in 1900, in Great Britain the work has long been a standard work in the repertoire of large oratorio choirs. Elgar's moving, poetic setting of the eponymous poem by Cardinal John Henry Newman is about a dying man and his journey beyond death to God. Before the eyes of the listeners, a musical image of the soul is created which flies past mocking demons to God with its protecting angel at its side, is allowed to look at God briefly, then faces the purgatory confident and comforted. The work is a real rarity in the history of oratorio, and for large choirs it is a thrilling alternative to the established repertoire of Requiem settings. Its popularity is thanks to the suggestive, often sensuous power of the music, the great choral scenes of the demons and the angels, and the three impressive solo parts.All previous editions were reprints based on the historic first printed materials, which are inconsistent. By contrast, Carus has produced a modern, newly-engraved edition, compatible in all sections, which takes all the sources into consideration and evaluates the autograph manuscript in detail. For this edition the complete orchestral material is available on sale, and the vocal score and full score contain both English and German singing texts. The full score is also available digitally.*,A milestone of late Romantic choral music, and a standard work in Great Britain*,First modern score with a full Critical Report and complete performance material- English and german singing texts

Havin g performed Garrop's String Quartet No. 2: Demons and Angels with much success, it is only natural that the Biava Quartet would handle the premiere of String Quartet No.3: Gaia. In an email interview with Pittsburgh New Music Net, Biava violist Mary Persin says, in part, We received many very enthusiastic responses from audience members who were struck by the interesting form, as well as the sonorities created by using a good deal of dissonance as well as harmonics. Watch for a recording by the Biava Quartet to be made available soon. For advanced performers. Duration: 32' 30.
