The Piano music of Jean Sibelius ranks among the greatest of Finnish music, and his 1924 set Five Characteristic Impressions demonstrates his importance, particularly in the field of Tone Poems. The fifth piece of this set, In Mournful Mood is a slower piece than the others, but is moving nonetheless. It is an impressionist piece that expresses imagery of reality with fabulous tonality and colour.

Gerónimo Giménez was a Spanish conductor and composer, who dedicated his career to writing zarzuelas, such as La tempranica and La boda de Luis Alonso. Zarzuela is a Spanish lyric-dramatic genre thatalternates between spoken and sung scenes, the latter incorporating operatic and popular song, as well as dance.
In 1896, Giménez wrote ‘El baile de Luis Alonso’, based on a text by Javier de Burgos. Following thesuccess of this piece, he set to music another sainete by Burgos with the same characters, which became one of his most famous works: Las bodas de Luis Alonso (1897). This energetic work is full of sweepingmelodiclines and light, fast-moving bass lines. True to form, the piece has plenty of dramatic and comedic flair.
The 4th movement of the late nineteenth century composer’s prime work, written originally for orchestra, is presentedhere in a whimsical and virtuoso Piano transcription. Performance time is approximately 6 minutes.

What would love be without music - or music without love! Many couples associate unforgettable beautiful hours, a first meeting, or first kiss with a particular song. And composers have always been inspired and stimulated by love, have celebrated romantic love and longing from afar, secret love, and jealousy. In her selection of 80 songs from seven centuries, Mirjam James evokes this tremendous feeling with the most beautiful songs ranging from medieval courtly songs, through Beethoven's Ich liebe dich, to the Beatles song And I love her. Many of the songs come from German and English language traditions, but what would such a book be without the fire of southern Europe or a dose of French charm, without the moving melodies of cool northern climes, or the melancholy songs of the Russian soul? A vocal score has been published which contains all of the the songs in the new Carus book of lovesongs in easily playable accompaniments. For many of these songs choral settings by famous composers such as John Dowland, Thomas Morley, Thomas Tallis or Thoinot Arbeau have been adopted, wherever possible, in their original form. In addition, well-known and familiar original settings by Beethoven, Brahms, Benjamin Britten, and other composers will be found in this collection. Songs with entirely new accompaniments have also been included, resulting in a collection of lovesongs offering a distinctive stylistic variety suitable for many different occasions. Score available separately - see item CA.240800.

The Triptych for piano (1953) shows a variety of musical ideas through its expressionistic character. The strong beginning of the first movement Allegro places the listener in the middle of a dramatic event with syncopated chords, which, after a quiet dolce middle section, leads to an energetic end. The melancholic 2nd movement Allegro assai is repeatedly colored by moving 32nd notes and ends thoughtfully in pianissimo. After that, the 3rd movement Vivo brings a breath of fresh air to the composition with a 16th note movement. (from the foreword by Christos Marantos).
