Yvette Guilbert (1865-1944) was primarily a French cabaret singer and actress of the Belle Epoque. Clearly a highly talented musician, Guilbert also composed herself, such as her 10 Songs based on writings by Paul de Kock. Guilbert's 10 Songs are highly romantic in nature, with harmonisation by Madame de Faye Jozin. Each of the ten songs vary in characteristics. For all aspiring vocalists, Guilbert's 10 Songs are a delightful addition to the repertoire..

Als mich mein Freund Till Fellner um einige Lieder fur eine Tournee mit Mark Padmore bat, deren ubriges Programm aus Schumann und Beethoven bestehen sollte, sagte ich sofort zu. Ich bin seit jeher der Meinung, dass sich neue Musik vor allem in unmittelbarer Konfrontation mit den Formen der Geschichte bewahren muss, statt sich in ghettoartiger Isolation abzukapseln. Ausserdem scheint mir eine neue Auseinandersetzung mit der europaischen Geschichte, insbesondere mit der Romantik, an der Zeit. Deswegen war der Wunsch der Auftraggeber nach einem Text von Jean Paul fur die Lieder eine weitere Anregung, der ich nicht widerstehen konnte. Wer die reichlich fliessenden Tranen in Jean Pauls Romanen mit einem Sich-Gehenlassen in privater Gefuhligkeit verwechselt, ubersieht nicht nur die ebenso reichlich produzierende ,,Essigfabrik seiner Satiren, sondern auch die konstruktive Kraft dieses grossen Dichters. Nirgendwo wird sie wohl so deutlich wie in seinem Musikerroman ,,Flegeljahre; so fand ich in diesem Werk auch zwei seiner ,,Polymeter oder ,,Streckverse, die mir sehr geeignet erschienen, den heute neu zu findenden Ubergang von kalter, ja neurotisch ,,vereister Affektivitat zu neu fliessender Warme zu zeigen. Die Verse sprechen von einer Tropfsteinhohle, deren Formen zwar hart und zackig sind, aber doch in ,,weich sinkende Tropfen zerschmelzen konnen. Diese Polaritat hart/weich wird zur Metapher fur die menschliche Trane, welche das Auge ,,durchschneidet; diese wiederum wird in einer weiteren Metapher zum Diamanten, der aber endlich weich wird, ,,und das Auge sieht sich um nach ihm. Der Musiker nun setzt die Metaphernschichten fort mit dem naturlichen Gegensatz zwischen dem weich fliessenden Gesang und dem von Natur aus perkussiven, harten Klavierklang. Dieser Gegensatz wird durch dynamische Nuancen vermittelt. Die Musik, die sich zunachst zogernd aus ,,gefrorenen, erstickten Klavierklangen zusammensetzt, wird vom stromenden Atem des Sangers allmahlich erwarmt und zu lebendiger Bewegung gebracht. Das Werk ist Gyorgy Kurtag zu seinem 90. Geburtstag zugeeignet. (Hans Zender, 2015)World premiere: Dortmund, Konzerthaus, January 15, 2016.

The work of Paul Hindemith is encyclopedic in nature. From the outset, he worked in all musical genres and devised several of his musical ideas and projects not as individual, self-contained works but as work cycles with different functional relationships. These contrasting pieces complement each other if experienced as part of the overall structure. Hindemith himself not only wanted a complete edition of his collected works but had begun planning it; at his death he left a detailed list of Unpublished pieces for an eventual complete edition. The Complete Works contain all finished works in all extant versions, newly engraved for the edition. Sketches and fragments are published in appendices of the relevant volume, and are evaluated in the Introduction and Critical Commentary by the respective volume editor. Each volume contains a preface by the editorial directors and an introduction by the volume editor, delineating the genesis and performance history of the work, with authentic performance instructions, an evaluation of extant recordings by Paul Hindemith himself and a Critical Commentary. The Complete Works of Paul Hindemith are thus presented in a critical, scholarly edition which is equally appropriate for study and performance. Hindemith researchers will welcome the numerous first publications of works by the composer, and practical musicians will appreciate the newly prepared, philologically ordered performance material.

The piano-accompanied Lied is undoubtedly the main genre of Pauline Viardot-Garcia's oeuvre. With this volume, we present settings of German texts by such poets as Ludwig Uhland, Eduard Morike, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Heinrich Heine, Emanuel Geibel, Ludwig Rellstab and Richard Pohl. Except for the Uhland settings, these German Lieder were written between 1862 and 1871 during Viardot's Baden-Baden period, when she shifted the focus of her activities from singing to composing and teaching. Here she worked, among other things, on the poetry of Eduard Morike, which she called the greatest and most genuine in all German poetry after Goethe.One of her first published songs was the setting of the Uhland poem Des Knaben Berglied. Accompanying herself on the piano, she performed it in 1838 on her first concert tour of Germany. A performance of the song at the Leipzig Gewandhaus prompted Robert Schumann to remark: She showed three talents here [composition, singing and piano playing], each of which would grace its artist. Through her music, Viardot brings the creatures in the poems to life, tracing their different characters and inner states, thus giving the texts a new level of interpretation.Miriam-Alexandra Wigber's recordings of songs from this edition can be found on YouTube.

Japan Songs was originally conceived as a song cycle for Voice, Shakuhachi & Piano Trio. In 2019, Kyo-Shin-An Arts asked six beloved composers to each write one song. All six said yes, the premiere was scheduled, and the journey began. When the first rehearsal at long last arrived, in November 2020, we realized we had not commissioned a song cycle but rather a collection of independent gems. Each song captures the personality and style of its creator as well as the deep emotional impact of the pandemic during which it was written. 1. Autumn Mountains by Victoria Bond 2. Eight Thousand Spears by Paul Moravec 3. Not A Trace by James Matheson 4. Praying for Love by Aleksandra Vrebalov 5. In the blink of an eye… by Jay Reise 6. Tree of Pearls by Douglas J. Cuomo Japan Songs can be performed separately, together, and in any order, either as chamber music with piano trio and shakuhachi or in the piano-vocal version. Performers are also welcome to substitute flute for the shakuhachi. Scores and parts for the Piano Trio and Shakuhachi versions are available separately.Voice & Piano Composed: 2020 Published by: Subito Music Publishing.
