ISBN 9790007165727. Language: German/English. Text: Lehms, Georg Christian. Text by Georg Christian Lehms.
Bach's cantata for solo soprano Mein Herze schwimmt im Blut was written during the summer of 1714 for the Weimar Court service on the 11th Sunday after Trinity. The cantata text by the Darmstadt Court poet Georg Christian Lehms (1684-1717), based on the well-known parable of the Pharisee and the publican, takes on extraordinary potency and intensity of expression in Bach's setting. Bach performed this cantata several times, in Weimar, and also during his years at Cothen aud Leipzig, meanwhile making various alterations. Our publication is based principally on the Leipzig version of 1723, whose instrumentation includes, in addition to the solo oboe and the customary strings and continuo, a violoncello piccolo. The appendix to our edition presents variants for certain movements from Bach's earlier performances, including a Cothen version with obbligato viola da gamba which is particularly interesting for present-day practice. Score available separately - see item CA.3119900.

The German composer Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) wrote his Academic Fesival Overture in the summer of 1880, together with the Tragic Overture. The occasion was the honorary degree which Brahms had received a year before from the University of Breslau. Initially, Brahms had sent a thank-you note, but he was expected to express his gratitude with a composition. The premiere took place on 4 January, 1881 - conducted by the composer himself - in Breslau. For this sparkling work, Brahms used various German student songs as a basis in an inventive way - and a little jestingly. Owing to the accessible development, lyrical warmth, humor, and persuasiveness, the Academic Festival Overtureis still a popular concert work. This transcription for concert band, which has been written by Tohru Takahashi, does justice to the original composition. Voor dit sprankelende werk gebruikte Brahms op inventieve wijze - en een tikje schertsend - verschillende Duitse studentenliederen als basis. Dankzij de toegankelijke opbouw, lyrische warmte, humor en meeslependheid is de AkademischeFestouvertüre nog altijd een geliefd concertwerk. Deze transcriptie voor harmonieorkest, die is geschreven door Tohru Takahashi, doet recht aan de originele compositie.Als Basis für dieses strahlende Werk, das er zum Dank für die ihm verliehene Ehrendoktorwürde der Universität Breslau schrieb, verwendete Brahms in erfinderischer und heiterer Manier verschiedene deutsche Studentenlieder. Dank seiner leicht zugänglichen Entwicklung, der lyrischen Wärme, seines Humors und seiner Ãœberzeugungskraft ist das Stück heute noch sehr beliebt. Au cours de l’été 1880, le compositeur allemand Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) écrit son Ouverture pour une fête académique, op. 80. Elle est contemporaine de l'Ouverture tragique qui en est son pendant. Un an auparavant, Brahms avait été fait docteur « honoris causa » de l’Université de Breslau. Dans un premier temps, il se contenta d'une simple note manuscrite titre de remerciement, mais comprit rapidement que cela ne saurait suffire. Il composa donc l’Ouverture pour une fête académique en remerciement pour sa nomination. L’œuvre fut créée l’Université de Breslau, le 4 janvier 1881, sous la direction du compositeur. Sorte de fantaisiepétillante et inventive, l’Ouverture académique est constituée de plusieurs chansons estudiantines allemandes en vogue l’époque. En raison de son développement accessible, riche en expressivité, espiègle et lumineux, cette ouverture reste très largement appréciée de nos jours.Cette transcription pour Orchestre d’Harmonie signée Tohru Takahashi est fidèle l’œuvre originale.

Johannes Brahms's only violin concerto, one of the most important violin concertos of the 19th century, is now a central repertoire piece. This fact is all the more notable, as, by his own account, Brahms understood all too little about the instrument. The concerto was composed at Worthersee during the summer of 1878 in collaboration with Joseph Joachim, a leading contemporary violinist. The solo part is extremely demanding, with really unusual difficulties. This circumstance did not go unnoticed by the critics of the first performance: Even to Joachim, the battled-seasoned wrestler, the technically difficult and tricky solo part was to be mastered only with obvious effort. Evidencing this close collaboration between composer and performer is not only the work's genesis and publication history, together with its dedication to Joachim, but also its solo cadenza. Based on the New Brahms Complete Edition, this Urtext edition includes both the printed version of Joachim's cadenza as well as its shorter version arranged in 1885 by the violinist Marie Soldat.
