Eduard Franck's two string sextets, op. 41 in E-flat major, published in 1882/84, and op. 50, in D major, completed in December 1884 but published posthumously in 1894, fall mysteriously outside of their era. They are a significant addition to the rather concise repertoire for string sextet, joining the two works in this genre by Johannes Brahms. Eduard Franck was one of the very few private students of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, who was himself a close friend of the Franck family, so that Eduard was firmly rooted in the Mendelssohn tradition. But what is particularly exciting in the sextets, is how he consistently further developed Mendelssohn's immanent genre-defining tendencies, thus founding a conservative alternative to the Schumann-Brahms course.

Book 1 contains scores and parts to 10 compositions by jazz master and leader of the World Saxophone Quartet, Julius Hemphill. Newly engraved edition. Edited by Marty Ehrlich.Julius Hemphill formed his Saxophone Sextet in 1989, composing new music for concert performances and his celebrated dance and theatre collaborations. The wide history of African-American music is heard in these pieces, all shaped by Hemphill's rich imagination and compositional acumen. The instrumentation is three altos with soprano doubles, two tenors, and baritone sax. The two volumes presented here mirror each other in the range of musical worlds Hemphill evoked as he explores the rich harmony and counterpoint possible with the six- saxophone choir.
