In his roles as Music Director at the Cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris and in the Royal Choir [chapel] of Louis XV, Andre Campra (1660-1744) composed numerous motets which frequently displayed the influence of contemporary opera. If today Campra is known almost exclusively for his famous Requiem, nevertheless his more than forty motets composed for soli, choir and orchestra are still awaiting discovery. Among these is a setting of Psalm 129, De profundis, published here in a new critical edition after the autograph score. The work was composed in 1723 during the first months of Campra's service to the French king and it proves to be the equal to the compositions of Michel-Richard de Lalande, who during his lifetime shaped and dominated the genre of the Grand Motet..

De Profundis, composed by Nico Muhly with poetry by Charles Anthony Silvestri, was commissioned by The Choir of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, directed by David Skinner, during the first Covid lockdown in the spring of 2020. It was a year and a half in the making, and was conceived during the dark months of Covid lockdown in the spring of 2020 when, for the first time in long history of the English Choral Tradition, choirs fell silent.

The Latin phrase De Profundis translates as ‘out of the depths’ and this is certainly an appropriate title for this solo work for bass trombone, since the deep voice of the instrument is featured extensively. This special piece is written without prescribed measures (senza misura). Microtone intervals, the use of specific physical movements and the use of a ‘plunger’ mute turn this piece into an adventurous and one-of-a-kind addition to the repertoire of the bass trombone. Het Latijnse De Profundis kan vertaald worden als ‘vanuit de diepten’ en die frase is zeker van toepassing op dit solowerk voor bastrombone, want de diepe stem van dit instrument komt uitgebreid aan bod in dit werk, dat integraal zonder maatstructuur is geschreven (senza misura). Micro-intervallen, het gebruik van een ‘plunger’ en enkele hoogstandjes in de schuiftechniek maken deze compositie een avontuurlijke en unieke aanvulling op het repertoire van de bastrombone. Der lateinische Ausdruck De Profundis heißt auf Deutsch übersetzt aus der Tiefe“. Die Bedeutung des Ausdrucks ist sicherlich für dieses Solostück für Bassposaune geeignet, da die tiefe Stimmlage des Instruments in diesem besonderen Werk, das ohne Taktangaben komponiert wurde (senza misura), ausführlich vorgestellt wird. Mikrointervalle, bestimmte Bewegungen und die Verwendung eines Plunger-Dämpfers†machen aus dem Stück einen spannenden und einzigartigen Beitrag zum Repertoire für Bassposaune. L’expressi on latine De profundis se traduit comme « (sorti) des profondeurs » et ce sens est sans doute applicable cette composition solo pour trombone basse. La voix grave de cet instrument est entendue fréquemment dans cette œuvre unique, qui est d’ailleurs composée en intégralité sans indication de mesure (« senza misura »). Des micro-intervalles, l’usage de mouvements physiques spécifiques et d’un plunger (sourdine chapeau) rendent cette œuvre aventureuse et unique au répertoire du trombone basse.

The Bohemian composer Jan Dismas Zelenka was a double bass player and church music composer at the Saxon court of the Elector August the Strong and his son Friedrich August II. In the years after 1721 he composed an extensive repertoire of Catholic church music together with the Kapellmeister Johann David Heinichen. These works, together with the Dresden operas composed by Johann Adolf Hasse in quick succession from 1731 onwards, established the reputation of the Saxon court as one of the most important musical centers of the late Baroque period. Zelenka composed this psalm setting De profundis in D minor ZWV 97 in 1724 on the death of his father, including a concluding Requiem verse. This was later replaced by the lesser doxology so that the work can be performed in the office of Christmas week. Both endings are included in this new edition. Three trombones, used as an independent instrumental group, give the work a special tonal color. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4006400.

Norbert J. Schneider (born in 1950) teaches composition at the Musikhochschule in Munich. He specialised in church music during his training and now writes predominantly for the organ. His organ toccata for the film 'Schlafes Bruder' has gained him a wider public. 'De profundis' was composed in 1980 for an Amnesty International church service. The chorale melody 'Aus tiefer Not' (Out of the deep) is hidden in the upper parts of the introductory chords and in the top notes of the 'Blues'.

Published by: Subito Music Publishing Composer's Note: De profundis ad lucem (out of the depths towards light) opens with an atmosphere of stillness, out of which two main sections emerge, one reflecting hope and the other struggle. Hope is expressed with a recurring theme that gradually layers upon itself, imparting a feeling of birth. This section suddenly gives way to struggle, represented with loud brass, biting accents, and thundering timpani figures. Following an extended musical landscape, these two sections return, only in reverse, with struggle resolving into hope. The work ends in tranquillity as it began. --N.G.

De profundis arose from Christoph Schonherr's intense study of the last years of Franz Schubert's life, and refers to the great Romantic with its subtitle of Hommage. Passages from Psalm 130 are contrasted with musical quotations from Winterreise. Der Wegweiser in particular is heard in the orchestra, and increasingly pushes forward into the flow of the composition, questioning the psalm text sung by the choir. In a concert, the work could be programmed with Schubert's Mass in E flat major, for example. This would be complement the compositional idea. The orchestral scoring is also identical (except for the trumpets required in the Mass). Score available separately - see item CA.2810500.

In the field of New Music, Sofia Gubaidulina's “De profundis†has already achieved the status of a classic. It is not only an attainment of the New Music that instruments are capable of approaching the human voice in their sound, or that they can imitate areas of expression found in language and linguistic articulation. But the avant-garde has surely expanded the spectrum to a considerable extent. The piece for solo bayan is an impressive example of this. The listener witnesses a slow and inexorable intensification from the “rattling†of the lowest accordion register up to the pure, tender tones of the highest register. It is “anascent from the lowest to the highest, from the breath and soul to the world's soul or wisdomâ€, as Gubaidulina's friend and colleague Viktor Suslin once expressed it. With the means of sound, Gubaidulina transfers a symbol of life onto the music: breathing. Breathing distinguishes the living from the dead. What other instrument, other than the winds, perhaps, could better lendexpression to this characteristic than the accordion? In contrast to the wind instruments, however, the accordion is not an instrument into which the player breathes and creates breathing sounds - instead, the instrument itself assumes this function. It breathes through the pulling apart and pressing together of the bellows. As the basis of her composition, Gubaidulina chose the lines of the Psalm 130 “From the depths, o Lord, I call to you†for the characterisation of her interlaced message. Shadowy chorale melodies are occasionally heard, but the fundamental idea of ascent remains decisive. Sharp insertions and expressive gestures, intrusive glissandi and nervous vibrati repeatedly disturb the direction of movement. And then we hear consciously the integrated breathing of the instrument - breathing slightly, hardly audible, opposing the powerful chord blocks. The musicologist Valentina Cholopova once said of this: “All these sounds confront solemn chords richly ornamented with figurations, but there is also a long, monodic melody running through the entire symbolic path of the work - from the depths all the way up to the brilliant heights.†The work is dedicated to Friedrich Lips!
