Charles Gounod composed this Requiem under the impact of the death of his four-year-old grandson, Maurice. According to information handed down, while finishing the details of this work he was overtaken by death. It was published posthumously in various constellations by his pupil, Henri Busser, but the only complete version from the pen of Gounod is the version for large orchestra, which is published here for the first time in a critical edition. Gounod's Requiem, unlike many contemporary settings of the Mass of the Dead, is not characterized by darkness and terror. Rather, with all of its trepidation - expressed through a marked chromaticism - an atmosphere of hopeful expectation, of trust in the grace and equity of the divine judge predominates. This confidence finds its expression in the choice of the fundamental key of C major, which is rather unusual for a requiem. The work was given an impressive performance on the occasion of the first anniversary of Gounod's death in the Parisian church of Sainte-Madeleine under the direction of Gabriel Fauré and it was highly acclaimed by the contemporary press. Score and part available separately - see item CA.2731500.

Goethe’s Faust has already been set to music by various renowned musicians, such as Berlioz, Busoni and Spohr, and indeed Charles Gounod, who built his eponymous opera around the tale. Gounod’s Faust is primarily known for its lovely melodies and its beautifully expressive vocal parts and subtle orchestrations. One of the high points of this opera is doubtless this impressive Cavatina (“Salut, demeure chaste et pure”). Wil van der Beek has arranged the Cavatina with the euphonium as solo instrument.

Goethes Faust is in het verleden al door verschillende componisten - waaronder Berlioz en Spohr - op muziek gezet. Ook Charles Gounod gebruikte Faust voor zijn gelijknamige opera. Zijn versie staat bol van prachtige melodieën en uiterst expressieve zangpartijen in een gera_x001C_ffineerde orkestratie. Een van deze hoogtepunten is zeker zijn Cavatina (“Salut, demeure chaste et pure”), in deze versie van Wil van der Beek bewerkt voor euphonium en orkest.

Goethes Faust wurde schon mehrfach von namhaften Komponisten vertont - darunter Berlioz, Busoni, Spohr und eben auch Charles Gounod, der aus dem Stoff_x001F_ die gleichnamige Oper komponierte. Sein Faust ist vor allem für herrliche Melodien sowie schöne, ausdrucksvolle Vokalpartien und feinsinnige Orchestrierungen bekannt. Einer der Höhepunkte dieser Oper ist zweifellos diese eindrucksvolle Cavatina (Salut, demeure chaste et pure“). Wil van der Beek wählte für seine Bearbeitung das Euphonium als Soloinstrument.

Faust, de Goethe a été plusieurs fois mis en musique par des compositeurs célèbres - dont Berlioz, Busoni et Spohr. En s’inspirant de la pièce de Goethe, Charles Gounod composa un opéra connu pour ses belles mélodies, ses chants expressifs et ses orchestrations subtiles. Un des points forts de cet opéra est sans aucun doute cette impressionnante Cavatine intitulée Salut ! Demeure chaste et pure. Wil van der Beek a choisi, pour son arrangement, de confi_x001C_er la partie solo l’euphonium. Un choix judicieux, qui placera votre soliste sous les feux de la rampe gr ce cette cavatine vibrante d’émotion et de sensibilité.

Il Faust di Goethe fu più volte messo in musica da compositori famosi quali Berlioz, Busoni, Spohr e Charles Gounod che compose l’opera omonima.

Uno dei punti di forza di questa opera è senza dubbio l’imponente Cavatina (Salut, demeure chaste et pure). Wil van der Beek ha scelto di arrangiare la sua Cavatina per eufonio solo e banda.

In 1950, Pope Pius XII selected Marche Pontificale from the OrganSymphony No. 1, by French composer Charles Gounod, as the officialhymn of the Vatican. The first rendition of the official hymn took placein the same year, in Saint Peter?s Square in Rome, played by sevenmilitary bands. To celebrate the 80th birthday of Pope Benedict XVI in2007, Wil van der Beek has produced a first-class arrangement of thisfamous work for concert band.

Ter gelegenheid van het heilig jaar 1950 bepaalde de toenmalige paus Pius XII dat de Marche Pontificale van de Franse componist Charles Gounod (1818-1893) de officiële hymne van Vaticaanstad zou worden, als opvolger van eenhymne uit 1857 van Vittorino Hallmayr. De nieuwe naam van de mars werd ‘Paushymne’. De godvruchtige Gounod had het werk in 1869 geschreven voor een jubileum van paus Pius IX. In dat jaar vond de première plaats op het Sint-Pieterpleinin Rome, gespeeld door zeven militaire orkesten. Het was een enorm succes - en ook nu nog is deze muziek zeer geliefd. Wil van der Beek stond garant voor het uitstekende arrangement van dit bekende werk.

Marche Pontificale stammt aus der Orgelsymphonie Nr. 1, die Charles François Gounod 1835 zur Ernennung von Papst Pius IX schrieb und die seit 1950 als offizielle Vatikanhymne gilt. Nun liegt sie, pünktlich zum Jubiläumsjahr 2007, in dem unser“ Papst Benedikt XVI seinen 80. Geburtstag feierte, in einer neuen Bearbeitung für Blasorchester aus der Feder des erfahrenen Arrangeurs Wil van der Beek vor.

En 1950, l'occasion de l'Année Sainte, le Pape Pie XII décida que la Marche pontificale du compositeur français Charles Gounod (1818-1893) deviendrait l'hymne officiel de l'État de la Cité du Vatican. La Marche pontificale, comme l'avait appelée son auteur prit alors le nom d’Hymne pontifical remplaçant ainsi l’ancien hymne (Musica Festiva) composé par Vittorino Hallmayr en 1857.Animé d’une foi profonde, Charles Gounod avait composé cette marche en 1869 pour le jubilé sacerdotal du Pape Pie IX. La création eut lieu la même année, sur le parvis de la Basilique Saint-Pierre, par sept fanfares militaires. L’œuvre connut un succès immédiat.Elle est toujours appréciée de nos jours.Wil van der Beek en a réalisé un excellent arrangement.

French composer, Charles Gounod (1818-1893) was a prominent in his day, best remembered for his Ave Maria and his opera, Faust. 1854 saw the premiere of his Solemn Mass, also known as the St. Cecilia Mass. This work fully established Gounod as a noteworthy composer. Despite being a minor composer to us today, Gounod was famed in his day, so much so that at his funeral, Camille Saint-Saens played the organ and Gabriel Faure conducted. Gounod's Solemn Mass proves the composer's extraordinary talent and caught the attention of much of Paris when it was first performed. Famous recordings include that of the Chorus of Radio France with the New Philharmonia Orchestra. For all aspiring choirs, Gounod's St. Cecilia Mass is an imperative, sublime addition to the repertoire.
