This work was written for the Britten Sinfonia and Nicholas Daniel, and is dedicated to him. It is in three movements. The first opens with a gradual building up of rhythmic layers on violas, bassoon and trumpet before the soloist joins in. Suddenly the music is thrown forward by a metrical modulation and becomes very fast, flighty and virtuosic. Structurally, the music eventually goes into reverse before a solemn coda. The second movement is based on an earlier work for solo oboe, in angustiis... The solo material is expressive and sad, and enters into much dialogue with other wind instruments throughout. The reflective character of the movement is interrupted by little dyadic patterns, various pizzicato outbursts, some scherzo-like material and agitated faster passages, but the principal mood is introverted and cantabile. The last movement begins brashly and has a clownish character. The overall feeling is extrovert and dramatic, showing off the oboe in fast display. Some of the original ideas from the opening movement are re-introduced in new guises, before an exultant and joyous ending.

Midwinter Song is a Christmas carol that calls us to love, faith, and hope. With a beautiful and supportive piano accompaniment and accessible vocal lines, this work will appeal to a wide variety of levels. Susan Labarr's Midwinter Song is a new work for Advent or Christmas. Labarr opens the piece with a gentle piano solo that perfectly captures the mystery of the poetry—the words seem to travel out of a time in the deep past and give homage to the neglected art of both rhythm and rhyme. In particular, the description of the world gathering in amber halls in the first verse wonderfully conjures images of medieval casltes or mead halls lit only with firelight and candles, full with the sound of carols.

Our source for the present edition of his Missa ad octo voces inaequales, Op. 65 is that issued in 1920 by the London firm of Bayley & Ferguson. This was not the work's first outing, however. In 1918, Bailey & Ferguson published a setting of this mass in English (Communion Service: Mass in C, for Eight Voices a Cappella, Op. 65, also published by Crescendo Music Publications), with movements ordered according to the Prayer Book. Perhaps to allow the work a larger audience, Henschel slightly modified the music to fit the Latin syllabification and reordered the movements, but essentially the work is as it was two years earlier.Our edition includes a full list of editorial changes and corrections. Also available is a version which omits the Credo, for churches where it is sung congregationally.

I. Floral Prelude on Leucanthemum Vulgare; II. Floral Prelude on Zehenspitzen durch die Tulpen; III. Floral Prelude on La Rose Jaune 14 page book Published by: Dunstan House Composer's Note: Organ preludes are frequently heard in religious services as well as organ recitals, but are commonly based on the tunes of hymns or chorales. Adapting the prelude form to tunes of a more secular nature introduces some slightly irreverent humor into the mix. These are called floral preludes rather than choral preludes because each of the tunes includes the name of a flower either in its title or its lyric (Daisy, Daisy give me your answer, do; Tiptoe Through the Tulips, and The Yellow Rose of Texas).

The best way to describe this piece might be to call it a modern day Renaissance motet. Beginning with a Latin chant, then accompanied by a pedal tone, you may be convinced it is a song from the ages. But soon a solo quartet emerges, then the entire choir, and the modern day harmonies and rhythms ensue. But the character remains as an appropriate number for a madrigal dinner feast. Joyful and exuberant, this is a delightful Christmas selection for advanced high school and college choirs. Medium in difficulty.

Originally, it took four to tango. Dorff's sultry, slinky tango began life as a quartet (available for string quartet, string quintet, string orchestra, or for quartets of clarinets, bassoons, saxophones). This piece breaks beyond that restriction to become an enjoyable trio. Although arranged for Allen Krantz in this version, the technical demands do not require the skill level of Allen Krantz to pull it off. It Takes Four to Tango is now simply a delightful dance for two.
