This work by 17-year-old Fazil Say is from the early creative period of the Turkish composer. Supported by Aribert Reimann and David Levine, he composed the four pieces for the 750th anniversary of the founding of Berlin, and they were premiered during the celebrations in 1987. The first monodic piece already shows the oriental melody that became more pronounced later, whereas the other pieces surprise with novel tone colours, inside-piano effects and specific rhythmic features.

In spring 1816 Franz Schubert, just nineteen years old, completed his second setting of the Stabat Mater in the midst of a highly productive period. In contrast with his first setting written the previous year, just five minutes in length, this time Schubert used the German translation by Klopstock as the basis for his composition. Stefan Schuck's edition is the first one of this work to be based on a critical evaluation of the primary sources, with complete performance material. The work, in a dark F minor, with its text by Klopstock, places Jesus Christ, rather than Mary, at the center of the contemplation. With his fugues, but particularly in the eight-part lamenting chorus Wer wird Zahren sanften Mitleids, Schubert shows himself at the height of his creative output. He composed his 4th Symphony, the Tragic, at almost the same time. The Stabat Mater is a rewarding work for choral societies and choirs to perform, because the choir has the largest portion to sing, and the choral parts are not too demanding. The composition is also a beautiful introduction to the choral-symphonic music of Schubert for less experienced choirs. Score and part available separately - see item CA.7006500.

Few hymns capture the pathos and emotion of Christ's Passion as capably as this centuries-old melody. Jay Rouse has reached deeply into his artistic palette to render a marvelous setting of Hassler's chorale for voices, piano and solo violin. Instrumental interludes, pianistic accompaniment lines, a cappella choral passages, creative interplay between major and minor tonalities, and an echo of J.S. Bach's Siciliano are all brought together in this evocative arrangement.
