Italian Girl in Algiers Overture is an operatic comedy from the early 18th century. The music is very characteristic of Rossini with lots of excitement and pure, elegant melodies. The opera was written in a very short time when the composer was only 21 years of age.The overture begins slowly and quietly with sudden loud surprising outbursts of comedic effect.Mr. Chasanov's arrangement for 13-part brass ensemble works perfectly for advanced performers, with each part having a fun and challenging time.

Chine se mythology is a cultural heritage that has been passed down through the ages. It is full of bizarre andsupernatural artistic charm. Shan Hai Jing is like a history book, which contains many mythological stories depictingthousands of mountains and waters, geography and humanities, The Concerto for Orchestra Shan Hai Jing is using alarge scyle orchestra in multi-movements, inspired by the anceint supernatural aesthetics, and creates an imaginaryuniverse and human illusion with an abstract sound world. This work is not based on the story of the ancient gods, butbased on the geographical distribution of the Fivering Mountains, metaphorical waters, mountains range, folkcustoms, and rituals of the gods, depicting the north, west, east, south, and middle respectively in five movements. Thecharacteristics of the mountain system and the regional customs.The first movement, Beishan Jing (Largo) (page 1-30). In this movement, folk music elements such as the traditionalMongolian “Humai” and the traditional Tibetan “Bon’e’ri” are used to Ode the folk customs and heroism of the vastmountains and plains and different ethnic groups.The second movement, Xishan Jing (Allegro and Adagio) (page 31-52). The music of this movement has the westernstyle of Gansu and Qinghai Plateau.The third movement, Dongshan Jing (Adagio and Allegro) (page 53-86). The legend of great bells that ringspontaneously without being struck has origins in the ancient Classic of Mountains and Seas, in which we read:“Upon the Mountains of Plenty, Nine Bells ring with Knowledge of the Frost.”Tales of those blasts of wind that pulse like a heartbeat through caverns in the limestone cliffs, setting off a mysterioussympathetic ringing from bells encrusted in frost, led to “Frost-Bell” becoming a word during the Tang dynasty, almosta millennium after the Mountains and Seas classic first appeared.The fourth movement, Nanshan Jing (Adagio and Andante) (page 87-100) . The music is characterized by thewoodwinds and string harmonics texture depicting of the cloud mountain in the south of the Yangtze River, Fujian,Guangdong and Hunan.The fifth movement, Zhongshan Jing (Allegretto) (page 101-118) symbolizes the end of the ritual ceremony, which isroughly centered on the sacred place of Chu. The people danced together, waving flowers and hitting the bronze drums,just like sending the Divine Comedy, the scene is lively, the atmosphere is Solemn and lively.

Text by the composer Translation: engl. (M. E. Browne) Place: Bagdad Characters: Der Kalif (baritone) - Baba Mustapha, ein Kadi (tenor) - Margiana, seine Tochter (soprano) - Bostana, eine Verwandte (alto) - Nureddin (tenor) - Abul Hassan Ali Ebn Bekar, Barbier (bass) - 1. Muezzin (bass) - 2. Muezzin (tenor) - 3. Muezzin (tenor) - Ein Sklave (tenor) - Vier Bewaffnete (2 Tenore, 2 Basse) Corneliuss opera got off to a bad start, to say the least: the scandal provoked at the first performance in Weimar in 1858 led to protests and ultimately to the resignation of Franz Liszt as court opera director. It was not until 1904 that the opera was played again in that city and proved that the scandal had not been caused by the work but by Liszts aesthetic views. The score was long considered as the ideal example of a musical comedy with a far too complicated plot. Today, however, many prominent commentators beg to differ: This is one of the sunniest scores ever written. Music in the spirit of Mozart and Mendelssohn: a highly delicate mixture of classical formal rigor and romantic irony, heightened with just a touch of exquisite sensuality that has just wafted in from the Orient. It is practically incomprehensible how Cornelius could have been regarded as a composer of the Wagner school for practically a century. With its intricate fusing of comedy, lyricism and sentimentality, it is precisely the opera that Schubert, Schumann, E.T.A. Hoffmann and Mendelssohn were unable to write. (Hans Zender).

Simon Laks (1901-1983), who moved from Warsaw to Paris in 1926 at the age of 25, belonged to the large group of composers from Central and Eastern European countries who went down in 20th-century music history as the “École de Parisâ€. Slavic temperament amalgamated in their music with French esprit, the folklore of their native countries combined with the stylistic elements of neoclassicism and jazz typical of the time. As a member of the “Association of Young Polish Musiciansâ€, Laks quickly made his way into French musical life. However, his career was ended with the beginning of World War 2 due to the collaboration of the Vichy government with Nazi Germany. Internment in 1941 was followed by deportation to Auschwitz in 1942. Laks survived the Shoah as a member and later leader of a camp band in Birkenau, which he testified to in his moving book Music in Auschwitz. After the traumatic experiences, Laks did not return to regular compositional activity until the 1960s, producing an opera, songs, and chamber music works, some of which were awarded important composition prizes. At the peak of this optimistic creative phase, he composed incidental music for Peretz Hirschbein's famous Yiddish comedy Dem Schmids Techter (The Blacksmith's Daughters), which premiered in New York in 1918, for a new production of the play at the Théâtre de'lÂ’Entrepôt in Paris. Along with Prokofiev's Overture on Hebrew Themes and Shostakovich's cycle From Yiddish (Jewish) Folk Poetry, it is one of the most significant 20th-century explorations of art music with Jewish folklore – homage to a culture irreparably destroyed. From the original score, Holger Groschopp compiled two suites, for violoncello and piano and piano solo, that capture the essence of Lak's enchanting drama music. The premiere recording of the suites with Holger Groschopp and Adele Bitter was awarded the Opus Klassik 2023 in the category Editorial Achievement of the Year.
