Octet in F major Op.post.166 D 803 for Clarinet (in B-flat) Bassoon Horn Violin (2) Viola Violincello Double Bass?I have done little new by way of lieder. In compensation I have tried my hand at several instrumental things for I have composed two quartets for Violins Viola and Violincello [A minor D 804; D minor D 810] and an octet [F major D 803] and will write yet another quartet [not carried out]. Indeed in this way I hope to prepare the way to the full-scale symphony. The latest news in Vienna is that Beethoven will give a concert [on 7 May 1824] ...I too am inclined to give a similar concert next Year God willing.?ThusSchubert writing on 31 March 1824 to his friend Leopold Kupelwieser in Rome in a lengthy letter whose first section is decidedly low-spirited. In order to prepare the way to the full-scale symphony by which he doubtless meant the genre as a whole rather than any specific work he wrote string quartets and a large-scale piece of chamber music for strings and winds taking Beethoven as his guide.Urtext of the New Schubert EditionParts (BA5617) and study score format 22.5 x 16.5cm (TP302) available for sale

The long awaited Sassmannshaus method ?Early Start on the Double Bass? is now here. At last students of the largest instrument in the string family can make use of this tried and tested method for beginners, developed by Egon Sassmannshaus for the other string instruments and applied here to the double bass by Holger Sassmannshaus and J. Peter Close. This method will meet the needs of the growing number of young bass students.?Early Start on the Double Bass? encompasses everything that one would expect from a Sassmannshaus method: an easy start, progression at a suitable rate, many cross-references to the other string instruments, songs and scales in different positions from early on, as well as many duets. Lively and colourful illustrations by Charlotte Panowsky complete the edition.For more than three decades ?The Sassmannshaus Tradition? has been the household name for excellence in beginner string methods in German-speaking countries. The English editions for violin, viola and violoncello, which were introduced to the international market in 2008, have proven to be very successful, particularly in the United States.Kids to the Bass!While children learning other string instruments can start as early as the age of four, the appropriate age to begin the double bass is approximately eight (possibly even six); this allows for a faster progression than on the other string instruments, and the method consists of only three volumes. The first volume will be published separately in an English and a German edition; the following two volumes will have German and English text in each book. Original compositions by Boguslaw Furtok enrich the volumes.- Based on the tried-and-tested Sassmannshaus methods for violin, viola and cello- Volume 1: Separate editions in German and English- Volumes 2 and 3: Bilingual, German/English editions- Moderate increase in difficulty- Position playing, duets- Includes new original compositions to B. Furtok- Volume 3 with piano accompaniments to 7 piecesThe authorsHolger Sassmannshaus is a double bass player with the Niederrheinische Sinfoniker in Mönchengladbach/Krefeld. He also teaches the double bass and performs with several other ensembles.J. Peter Close is a teacher for violoncello and double bass in Munich.

The Piano Quintet in C is a substantial and superbly written work lasting some 30 minutes. The first movement marked Allegro con fuoco is expansive loquacious and filled with late romantic passion its harmonies Brahmsian for the most part but tinged with modality in the quieter passages. The expressive romantic melody of the Andante second movement is fully characteristic of the composer and resembles the song Silent Noon that he composed in the same year. The finale is a set of five well-differentiated variations ending with a beautiful bell-like coda. This work was written in 1903.
