Named for the West Wind, this Grade 3 original work makes use of quarter and eighth note triplets to depict a sense of swirling motion. A forward- moving theme is passed between sections in the orchestra accompanied by a steady, march-like staccato pulse. The opening B minor theme rises and falls, giving way to a faster, rhythmic section in D major. Ascending and descending scale passages are exchanged between voices with a light, springy spiccato. The music swells with crescendos and decrescendos portraying the sweeping ebb and flow of the wind. The primary minor theme returns with a dramatic unison statement in the violins, shifting modally as it builds to a momentous finale. An excellent piece for working on extended finger patterns, bowing styles, and dynamic changes.

“In diesem Augenblick” (In This Moment) is the first work for string quartet by the Chinese composer Yang Lin, born in Beijing in 1982. The work was given its world premiere in November 2010 by the Amaryllis Quartet at the Laeizshalle in Hamburg. “In diesem Augenblick” is concerned with the brief moment between two events, comparable with the interval between two steps whilst walking: “This brief moment, this motion in detail that one does not usually notice, has been given a great deal of attention. But it does not mean that this moment stops. There remains a contradictory moment that remembers the tensions and vibrations of the past an, at the same time, awaits the peace of the future.” (Yang Lin).

While composing this beautiful chorale, Hayato Hirose was inspired by the fond memory of the pre-marital days he spent with his beloved wife, Minako.The chorale starts with gorgeous woodwinds, after which the brass section is gradually added to enhance the atmosphere. The main theme is repeated and developed in several different keys in the middle section, followed by the recapitulation and the romantic coda that concludes the work. Moment Musical gives any concert programme a touch of warmth and tenderness.

De inspiratiebron voor het schrijven van dit prachtige koraal vond Hayato Hirose in zijn aangename herinnering aan de verlovingstijd die hij doorbracht met Minako, zijn geliefde echtgenote. Het koraal begint met een prachtige passagein het hout, waarna de kopersectie langzaam wordt toegevoegd voor nog meer sfeer. Het hoofdthema wordt herhaald en ontwikkelt zich in verschillende toonsoorten in de middenstem, gevolgd door de reprise en het romantische codawaarmee het werk eindigt. Moment Musical geeft elk concertprogramma een vleugje warmte en tederheid.

Zu diesem wunderschönen Choral ließ sich Hayato Hirose von der Erinnerung an die Zeit der Hochzeit mit seiner geliebten Frau Minako inspirieren. Moment Musical setzt mit prächtigen Holzbläsern ein, dann wird die Stimmung nach und nach von den Blechbläsern unterstützt. Das Hauptthema wird in mehreren unterschiedlichen Tonarten im mittleren Register wiederholt und entwickelt. Darauf folgen die Reprise und die romantische Coda, die das Werk beendet. Moment Musical verleiht jedem Konzertprogramm einen Hauch von Wärme und Zärtlichkeit.

C e choral aux lignes délicates et épurées débute avec ferveur. Les bois évoluent avec délicatesse et transparence, magnifiés par les cuivres qui se joignent élégamment au développement. Dans le passage central, le thème principal est exposé plusieurs reprises dans différentes tonalités. Une coda séduisante et romantique vient conclure la composition. Moment Musical est un délicieux flot de légèreté.

Questa corale dalle linee delicate inizia con fervore. I legni sviluppano con delicatezza e trasparenza, aiutati dagli ottoni che si uniscono allo sviluppo del tema. Nel passaggio centrale, il tema principale è esposto a più riprese in varie tonalit . Una coda seducente e romantica chiude il brano.

Commissione d by the Kolner Philharmonie (KolnMusik) for the non bthvn projekt 2020 and the Cite de la musique / Philharmonie de Paris Dedicated to Arditti Quartet Each movement of this quartet explores a single state, its lights and its shadows. Each movement, you could say, is a moment . And these moments could last for more or less time without compromising their essential nature. The processes could be extended or compressed, repeated or reversed, but the core ideas - if they are ideas, but maybe they are simply experiences? - are what they are. Despite this, the precise sequence of movements matters a great deal. Heard together they do articulate some kind of linear narrative, maybe even a metaphorical journey (albeit a circular one where the arrival might, who knows, prove to be a new departure). One situation gives way to another and instrumental relationships within the quartet vary, but ultimately the imaginative impulse behind the piece preferences states of unity. Whether or not this unity is expressed texturally - sometimes literal unisons pervade, but not always - there is generally a sense that even seemingly diverse aspects relate to a fundamental condition of concord: a conscious limitation in the pitch structure to spectral emanations of the root notes E-flat and C. At the opening this is unambiguously audible in the perpetual alternation of these two notes in the low cello register. Later the two spectra are woven into a micro-tonal 'double-spectral-mode' (derived from the first 24 partials of the C and E-flat fundamentals), which defines the subtle melodic inflection of the second movement, and the never-quite-chromatic ascending scales of the third. For now this feels like a rich source of melodic possibility, so far only just glimpsed... And why the insistence on E-flat? Probably by way of historical anecdote. Apparently Karl Holz (a member of the Schuppanzigh Quartet) said to Beethoven: We performed your Quartet in E-flat Op. 127 in his [Weber's] honour; he found the Adagio too long; but I told him: Beethoven also has a longer feeling and a longer imagination than anyone standing or not standing today. - Since then, even Linke (another member of the quartet) can no longer stand him: we cannot forgive him for this. Listening again to Op. 127, in light of these comments, I was struck by the opening moment: the unfolding of an E-flat 7th chord over the course of a few bars. Every time I hear it I find myself wishing that Beethoven would have lingered longer there, without resolution or progression, just enjoying that sonority. And maybe - why not? - tune the 7th naturally. And what would it be to stretch that moment into an entire piece? What would Weber think of that?! In the end I was not so extreme in my self-limitation, and other concerns took over, but it was from these thoughts that the composition process began... Lastly, about the title: it comes from a book called 'The Clock of the Long Now' by Stewart Brand, published at the turn of the millennium. It's about the creation of a thousand-year clock to embody the aspiration to thinking in terms of longer time-spans than are presently habitual. If the music of Beethoven embodied a 'longer' feeling and imagination than some of his contemporaries were able to appreciate, what is our relation to time now? Longer or shorter? Maybe it depends who you ask... It's probably more extreme in both directions: attention spans might be diminishing in the digital world, but conversely there is an awareness of distant pasts and potential futures which would have been inconceivable at the time of Beethoven. In any case, the interesting thing is to ponder how societal conditions, assumptions and expectations might - whether consciously or unconsciously - influence the time of art, for listeners and creators alike. And what if time is running out? (Christian Mason)

Reunited for a fourth time, the talents of John L. Bell and the voices of Chicago's Cathedral Singers combine to produce a truly remarkable recording of top-notch choral music with Take This Moment! Like much of John Bell's work, Take This Moment sends us soaring around the globe, featuring such pieces as Te Ensalzarÿ, SeËor, a lively, bilingual setting of Psalm 30 commissioned by the Diocese of Austin, Texas. The lovely Easter text of While Earth Remains is set to an exquisite Korean tune, while I Bow My Head in Prayer takes us back to John Bell's homeland with an ancient Scottish-Celtic text set to an even older Celtic melody. Also featured on this recording, making his debut with the Cathedral Singers, is GIA composer and guitarist Stephen Petrunak! The rich, full music in this collection is intended for parish choirs with options of three- or four-part harmony.

Simple, those pieces are entertaining and humorous. Their title give easily an indication of the character to give while playing them. Except << Le Debut... >> that should be played at the start, and << ... Et la FIN >> at the end, I let the Conductor free to define the order in which to play the central Pieces: << L'Heure de Pointe >> (The rush hour), << Un Moment Presque Tranquille >> (An almost quiet moment), and << Le Voyage en Train >> (The train trip).
