Goethe, who studied in Leipzig between 1765 and 1768 (a period he wrote about in Dichtung und Wahrheit), was friends there with a young man of his age, Bernhard Theodor Breitkopf, the grandson of the publishing house's founder. Breitkopf set his friend's first poems to music in the style of the day. The Neue Lieder und Melodien came out for the 1770 Leipzig spring fair, though without any mention of the poet, still completely unknown at that time. The title Goethes Leipziger Liederbuch dates only from 1932, when Gunter Raphael prepared a new edition for the Goethe commemorative year. Since several poems from the Neue Lieder are found in highly altered forms in later work collections, this publication of Goethe's first poems is also of great value to literary scholars.Goethe, who studied in Leipzig between 1765 and 1768 (a period he wrote about in Dichtung und Wahrheit), was friends there with a young man of his age, Bernhard Theodor Breitkopf, the grandson of the publishing house's founder.

Spring has finally arrived. The days grow longer, birds prepare to nest, trees turn green and plants begin to bloom as nature wakes up from her winter sleep. This, and the fact that the composer’s third grandson was born in the spring, were the inspiration for Spring Song. Het is voorjaar! De dagen worden langer, de vogels bouwen hun nestjes, bomen hullen zich in het groen en alle planten beginnen te bloeien. Kortom: de natuur ontwaakt uit haar winterslaap. En precies in dit jaargetijde zag ook hetderde kleinkind van de componist het levenslicht. Lente en nieuw leven: voor Jan de Haan twee prachtige inspiratiebronnen voor zijn nieuwe werk Spring Song!Es ist Frühling. Die Tage werden länger, Vögel bauen ihre Nester, die Bäume schlagen aus und alle Pflanzen beginnen zu blühen. Kurz gesagt: Die Natur erwacht aus ihrem Winterschlaf. Der Frühling und der glückliche Umstand, dass just zu dieser Jahreszeit sein dritter Enkel das Licht der Welt erblickte inspirierte den Komponisten zu seinem Stück Spring Song. C’est le printemps : les jours s’allongent et la nature sort de son sommeil hivernal. C’est toute l’effervescence du printemps qu’exhale Spring Song. En outre, cette ravissante pièce célèbre également la naissance du troisième petit fils du compositeur, né au printemps. E’ primavera: la natura si risveglia, gli uccelli preparano i nidi, gli alberi e le piante cominciano a fiorire. Uno spettacolo che la natura ci regala puntuale ogni anno. Spring Song trasuda di questo splendore e vuole essere per Jan de Haan un benvenuto al mondo al suo terzo nipote, nato appunto in quella che è per molti la stagione più bella dell’anno..

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.

Game Over for trumpet (optionally cornet or flugelhorn) with piano accompaniment is a lively composition with a playful character. The range of the solo part is limited to one and a half octaves, making Game Over an ideal performance or test piece for young musicians. The composition is further enhanced by the rhythmically appealing piano accompaniment. The work was written by Jan Hadermann as an optional piece for his grandson’s trumpet exam, to whom Game Over is also dedicated. Game Over voor trompet (optioneel kornet of bugel) en pianobegeleiding is een compositie met een levendig, speels karakter. De omvang van de solopartij is beperkt tot anderhalf octaaf, waarmee Game Over voor jonge muzikanten een ideaal stuk is om tijdens een uitvoering of op een examen te spelen. De aantrekkelijke ritmische pianobegeleiding biedt daarbij de nodige ondersteuning. Jan Hadermann schreef Game Over als keuzewerk voor het trompetexamen van zijn kleinzoon, en droeg het tevens aan hem op.Game Over für Trompete (wahlweise Kornett oder Flügelhorn) und Klavierbegleitung ist eine Komposition von lebhaftem, spielerischem Charakter.

Best known for his settings of spirituals and influence on Dvorák, Henry T. Burleigh was a celebrated baritone, and a prolific composer of original works. FROM THE SOUTHLAND is a suite of six atmospheric scenes of the American south, inspired by Black musical and cultural traditions. FROM THE SOUTHLAND is within reach of intermediate pianists and artistically suited for professional recitals.In 1835, Henry T. Burleigh’s maternal grandfather purchased his own release from slavery for the sum of $50, and traveled north out of Maryland to begin a new life as a free man. He established his family in Ithaca, NY, and then moved to the bustling lakefront city of Erie, PA, where three decades later his grandson Henry would be born and raised.For Burleigh, the “Southland†that inspired this collection of piano sketches was a distant place that could not have been more different from the physical world he knew, up there in the northern snowbelt. And yet these southern landscapes and vignettes must have been intensely present in his consciousness, absorbed through the stories and songs he first learned at his grandfather’s knee.The music of the South – the spirituals and work songs he heard as a child –would travel with Burleigh throughout his long and illustrious musical life. Even as he progressed through his early classical training, his career as a baritone soloist in Erie’s churches and synagogue, his move to New York to study at the National Conservatory of Music, and his rise to national prominence as a concert soloist, these ancestral melodies stayed firmly centered in his musical identity.When he wrote From the Southland, his only composition for solo piano, Burleigh was just beginning his career as a composer. The art songs that would establish him as one of America’s best known composers in the genre were still to come. And so were his iconic arrangements of spirituals that would bring the songs of slavery onto concert stages around the world, transformed into timeless and uniquely American music.These little piano sketches bring together all the things that made Burleigh the musician he was – the lush, late-romantic style of his time; a broad vision for American music; and a profound respect for his heritage, a memory of the world his grandfather left behind, and a love of the music he brought with him.
