Corona - The Solar Trilogy No. 3 for Orchestra was composed by Poul Ruders in 1995.Programme note:CORONA makes the final part of the SOLAR-TRILOGY a huge symphonic triptych about the life and behavior of the Sun. The first'panel' GONG depicts the birth life and final collapse of our nearest star the second ZENITH describes in its ultra-slow tempo the patient rise of the Sun toward midday ferocity and its subsequent setting. CORONA then is a symphonic 'portrait' of the phenomenally hot whispy brim encircling and radiating from the Sun a sizzling halo of electrons and photons visible only during a total eclipse. Formally CORONAfollows the process of such totality in progress:the gradual eclipsing by the Moon - total darkness with thefierce sparkling outer corona - the gradual 'rebirth' of the light toward the full gl.ory and warmth of the Sun.Besides the obvious astronomical narrative of the SOLAR-TRILOGY there's a metaphysical angle too underlying each of the three compositions: GONG in spite of its apparent energy may be the most pessimistic of them all epitomizing the death and ultimate annihilation of the prime source of Life itself. ZENITH is a hommage to human aspiration and spiritual endurance and CORONA ends with Hope and Glory after a journey from depression throughtotal despair. Super-structurally the zenith of ZENITH makes the zenith of the entire trilogy i.e. when the E- flat of the unisone horns in ZENITH is heard we are exactly halfway through the collected work.Poul Ruders

Incontri for Orchestra (2010) by Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen. Commissioned by The Danish National Symhony Orchestra / DR. Parts are for hire: hire@ewh.dk Preface / Programme Note INCONTRI is a kind of orchestral prelude presenting some of the orchestra’s timbral possibilities. The timbres of the instrument groups emerge either clear on their ownor in various blends. There are no doublings between the three main groups – winds strings and percussion – each group maintains its own individual character evenduring the encounters; as in a forest where different kinds of birds continuetheirterritorial song without yielding or altering their signals.The joint musical project is not unlike a Baroque concerto grosso not only in theway the form plays the groups off against each other but also in the musical language itself. I have previously written a concerto grosso which I called ”Jungle Baroque” becauseof its savage and wild sounds. The same thing can be said about INCONTRI – bydegrees. Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen

Gustav Holst wrote the libretto and music for his opera The Perfect Fool over the years 1918 to 1922. It had its premiere at in London the next year but mystified audiences and has been rarely performed since then. This five-movement suite of introductory ballet music is arranged separately as an Orchestral suite.The ballet music includes dances for the Spirits of Earth Water and Fire and Holst’s music evokes the moods of these beings delightfully.Gustav Holst has earned a place among the most revered of late 19th and early 20th century composers and is best known for his enduring Orchestral suite The Planets.

Edited by Robin LangleyAmongst the most widely-disseminated and influential piano music of the early 19th century the sixteen Nocturnes of John Field are here published together for the first time in an edition that through careful consideration of publishers' plate numbers Russian first editions and the composer's habits of revision reveals the number and chronology of the little-known Nocturne No. 10 and its relation to the unnumbered 'Troubadour' Nocturne H.55.First published in 1997.

from Symphony No. 1 - The Lord of the Rings. Johan de Meij?s first symphony The Lord of the Rings is based on the trilogy of that name by J.R.R. Tolkien. This book has fascinated many millions of readers since its publication in 1955. The symphony consists of five separate movements, each illustrating a personage or an important episode from the book. This transcription for brass band, arranged by the composer has the following movements: I. GANDALF (The Wizard), IV. JOURNEY IN THE DARK (The Mines of Moria and The Bridge of Khazad-Dûm), V. HOBBITS. The symphony was written in the period between March 1984 and December 1987, and had its première in Brussels on 15th March 1988, performed by the The Royal Band of the Belgian Guides under the baton of Norbert Nozy. In 1989, the symphony The Lord of the Rings was awarded a first prize in the Sudler International Wind Band Composition Competition in Chicago, and a year later, the symphony was awarded a grant by the Dutch Composers Fund. In 2001, the orchestral version was premiered by the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra.

Beethoven, Ludwig vanLeonore Overture for Orchestra no. 3- The most popular of the ?Leonore? overtures- Based on the G. Henle Complete Edition of the ?Works of Ludwig van Beethoven?- Orchestral parts in an enlarged format (25.5 cm x 32.5 cm)Of the four overtures that Beethoven composed for his only opera, the ?Leonore Overture? No. 3 is the most popular. The first reviewer found fault with it for its ?incessant dissonances and overblown fluttering of the violins? (Wiener Theater-Zeitung, 1806), but it soon became famous as ?one of the most imposing, difficult, yet richest and strangest of compositions? (Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung, 1810). This version of the ?Leonore Overture? quickly established itself independently of the stage in the concert hall and has found a lasting place in the symphonic repertoire.The editor has devoted herself to the complex genesis of the various ?Leonore Overture? versions, in particular the question whether the trumpet call in measures 272?277 and 294?299 should be played by one or two instruments. The edition is based on the Complete Edition of the ?Works of Ludwig van Beethoven? issued by the G. Henle publishing company. / Grand format / Barenreiter

Wenn Die Rose Sich Selbst Schmückt Schmückt Sie Auch Den Garten (When The Rose Beautifies Itself It Beautifies The Garden ) was composed by Per Nørgård in 1971. Chamber Cantata for four performers Scored for Soprano Alto Flute Double Bass and Percussion (all playing also Crotales). Composed for and dedicated to Dorothy Dorrow. Parts available: KP01092 Preface / Programme Note The title of the work is borrowed from a fragment by the German poet Friedrich Rückert.This fragment this short sentence (which Rückert apparently neverelaborated upon) is the entire basis of the work. I was inspired by the meaning as well as the sound of these words.I perceive the meaning of the sentence as being a defence for the refinement of an individual’s personal gifts - far from the present hostility toward individuality and the senseless praise of impersonal success in society. Personal refinement can so the fragment in my interpretation at its best be accompanied by a deep sense of responsibility and become an active and positive influence in society.The sound the timbre of the individual words and characters is employed both instraightforward text-sequences as well as in the exploration of individual vowels and consonants as pure sounds. The soprano is often used purely instrumentally echoing and pre-echoing discreetly the notes of the flute and the harmonics of the double bass often imperceptably stealing their notes and altering them into human sounds which then yetagain are absorbed into the instrumental tapestry. Per Nørgård 1971

Nuova edizione a cura di André Richard e Marco Mazzolini. The new edition of Luigi Nono?s Prometeo serves a twofold objective. First, it proposes to document the musical text as defined through the experience of the performances in which Nono took part. Second, it aims to provide performers and scholars with the necessary information relating to the performance practice of the voices, instruments, and electronics (data, programming schemes, instructions for the implementation of sonic treatments). The technical and performance-related material is preceded by an essay which illustrates the philosophical background of the work, as closely linked to its formal aspects. The edition avails itself of the text of the second, final version of Prometeo, performed for the first time in Milan at the Stabilimento Ansaldo (September-October 1985) and reprised in Frankfurt (Alte Oper, August 1987), Paris (Théâtre National de Chaillot, October 1987) and Berlin (Kammermusiksaal of the Philharmonie, August 1988), with Nono at the Sound Direction. While the purpose of the edition is eminently practical, the specific nature of the work, combined with Nono?s own compositional approach, has made it necessary for the editors to access a number of sources, in order to accurately define the musical text. These include the autograph score supplied to the publisher and the printed copy that Nono used in all of the performances he took part in, the scores and parts used by the performers who worked with the composer, the work protocols of the Experimentalstudio of Freiburg (where Nono realized the live electronics part for Prometeo), the radio broadcast recordings of the performances in which Nono was directly involved. The concept of the edition owes much to André Richard?s extended experience realizing Prometeo, from the premieres of Venice (1984) and Milan (1985) up until 2015. He assumed a variety of roles in his plurennial involvement, from preparing the chorus and vocal soloists to leading the Sound Direction, to the design of the sonic space. As to the notation for the electronics of Prometeo, particular attention was devoted to solving the problem posed by the absence of a reference standard, as well as of specific indications in the autograph score. Based on the work protocols of the Experimentalstudio of Freiburg, the editors have developed a semiographic code that is coherent and expressive enough to avert stylistic ambiguities and, at the same time, open and flexible enough to allow for the exercise of interpretative freedom in a constantly evolving technological context.

Philip Glass has produced ten symphonies so far the ones immediately preceding this one inspired by sources as diverse as Allen Ginsberg poetry Aboriginal writings and Native American song. Symphony No 8 however has noreferences to non-musical materials and takes as its subject according to Glass ‘the language of music itself’.The three-movement work does not conform to classical symphonic form with an extended twenty-minute first movement a slow passacaglia for the second movement and a short dense theme joined by a counter theme then ending with an extended cadence to complete the work in the third movement. Symphony No 8 was commissioned by the BrucknerOrchester Linz under the direction of Dennis Russell Davis.American composer Philip Glass is widely known as one of the most celebrated influential and prolific of the modern composers. He is frequently referred to as aminimalist though he prefers to call himself a composer of ‘music with repetitive structures.’ His operas among them the renowned Einstein On The Beach are performed across the globe and he has created work for small andlarge ensembles film and experimental theatre and founded his own performing group The Philip Glass Ensemble.
