By Jennifer Castellano. Spectrum, Seven Preludes for Piano was inspired by a work by the American artist, Ellsworth Kelly (b. 1923). The composer writes, When I was a freshman in college, I saw his work entitled Spectrum at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The work consisted of thirteen large panels, and each contained a different color or shade of color. The first panel was yellow and the last was yellow. To me this work was a visual representation of a chromatic scale played one full octave up the piano keyboard. Five years after the magnificent sighting at the Met, I decided that I wanted to make an audio representation of the seven colors of the rainbow, each represented by a different tonality or pitch center: A being red, B orange, C yellow, D green, E blue, F indigo, and G violet. Spectrum abandons the use of the conventional major-minor key systems and instead uses a scale which the composer invented called the Castellonian Mode. In it's original form the scale is spelled C D E F G G# (or Ab) A Bb C. The sound of this new tonal system exhibits both major and minor-like qualities and yet has a new sonority of its own. The Castellonian Mode was invented in the summer of 2004 and has served as the basis of many of her tonal compositions.

Spectrum (dat werd opgedragen aan de fanfare St. Cecilia uit Helden-Dorp naar aanleiding van het negentigjarig bestaan) omvat een reeks vloeiend in elkaar overgaande variaties die zijn gebaseerd op melodische en ritmische motievenuit het Heldense volkslied. Het lied komt niet in zijn geheel naar voren, maar vormde de basis voor het spectrum van de gebruikte intervallen, (gecamoufleerde) melodielijnen en harmonische structuren in deze compositie.

Geco mponeerd voor de 1e divisie van de Open Nederlandse Fanfare Kampioenschappen 2012Turend over het Friese platteland zag ik door de weerkaatsing van het zonlicht in een opkomende bui plotseling een regenboog verschijnen. Dit indrukwekkende natuurverschijnsel inspireerde me tot het schrijven van een compositie waarin de kleuren van de regenboog uitgangspunt waren. Elke kleur associeerde ik met willekeurige, contrasterende onderwerpen. Zo is Spectrum of the Sky een concertwerk geworden dat bestaat uit zeven, deels in elkaar overgaande, korte composities die qua thematiek en/of ritmiek aan elkaar gerelateerd zijn.1 Sun and Water Een regenboog verschijnt aan de horizon. Erg langduurt de betovering van dit prachtige natuurverschijnsel niet. Het schitterende plaatje wordt plots onderbroken door opkomend onweer.2 Red Planet MarsEen ruimtevaartuig vertrekt, om na een lange reis van negen maanden aan te komen op Mars, de rode planeet.3 Interlude in Orange MinorOranje: de nationale kleur van Nederland. Koninginnedag 2009. De festiviteiten op die dag werden wreed verstoord door een aanslag op de koninklijke familie. De gevolgen waren dramatisch. 4 Yellow FieldsDe eerste zonnestralen, knoppen in de bomen, nestelende vogels, pasgeboren dieren in de wei en onmetelijke velden van gele koolzaadbloemen. Een en al muzikale vrolijkheid, want het is lente.5 Capriccio in GreenGroen - de meest voorkomende kleur in de natuur. De grote diversiteit in ritmische en melodische lijnen verklankt de grilligheid van de natuur in het algemeen.6 Blue LakeDe helblauwe meren van Nieuw-Zeeland zijn van een onbeschrijfelijke schoonheid. Het magnifieke uitzicht op zoâ??n meer vormde de inspiratiebron voor het expressieve zesde deel.7 Grand Finale â??The Seventhâ?Indigo is voor het menselijk oog vaak niet te onderscheiden van blauw of violet. Deze kleur is in dit werk dan ook achterwege gelaten. De laatste verklankte kleur is violet - weerspiegeld in de septiem, het zevende interval, dat overheerst in de finale van de compositie.Jan de Haan.

With the title of this composition, Fever Fantasy, Jorg Widmann refers to its musical air: 'I often feel Robert Schumann's melodic shape to be like the amplitude of a temperature curve: nervous, flickering, feverish, an infinite number of small and large wave crests and troughs within the principal line.'The composer approaches this sound phenomenon with a setting for acoustic instruments. Nevertheless, he succeeds in conjuring up very unusual sound spectrums. Over long sections, the notation of this score mirrors the musical progressions, containing no concrete pitches but detailed performance instructions instead. Slowly, individual tones emergefrom ascending pizzicato lines, colourless sound surfaces, sounds of harmonics roughened by tremolos, and virtuoso clarinet scales, tones that do not reveal their origin until the work ends: C - F - E - D sharp, the beginning of Schumann's first violin sonata.

A memorable musical competition commissioned by the emperor Joseph II took place on 7 February 1786 as part of a festival in the orangery of the Schönbrunn palace. A German Singspiel ensemble performed Mozart’s “Schauspieldirektor †whilst Antonio Salieri’s “Prima la musica e poi le parole†was performed by the Italian court singers and musicians. This charming opera satire belongs to the genre of “metamelodrammaâ in which the opera itself becomes the subject of the action. The people who are part of an opera production, for example the librettist, composer and prima donna, appear as characters on the stage and are presented in a humorous self-reflection. In this ‘theatre about theatre’ Salieri parodies the music from Giuseppe Sarti’s “Giulio Sabino†in his insert arias, thus playing on the music which was totally familiar with the audience of the time. By reflecting on the musical-dramatic style of that period and discussing whether ‘the word’ or ‘the music’ should take priority, this masterpiece is considered to be an early forerunner to Richard Strauss’s “Capriccioâ€.< br>The new edition of the score is published as part of “opera – Spectrum of European Music Theatre in Separate Editionsâ€. There are several alterations regarding the libretto text, stage directions, articulation, ornamentation, etc. which have been incorporated into this newly engraved vocal score. Furthermore, all appendix numbers from the score which concern the quotations from Giuseppe Sarti’s “Giulio Sabino†have also been incorporated.â ¢ Urtext vocal score based on the historical-critical hybrid score published as part of “opera – Spectrum of European Music Theatre in Separate Editions†edited by Thomas Betzwieser (music edition) and Adrian La Salvia (text edition).• Original Italian libretto with singable German translation• Comprehensive bilingual foreword (Ger/Eng) on the genesis and reception of the work, on metamelodramma and intertextuality etc.• Includes an extensive appendix to the quotations taken from Giuseppe Sarti’s “Giulio Sabinoâ€â€¢ Idiomatic piano reduction

We have sought to put together a number of short pieces - or to inspire the creation of new ones - that contain no great technical difficulties. The result is a broad spectrum of multifaceted compositional styles, ranging from Boulez's rigorously structured pieces to Hespo's musical stimuli that are to be worked out freely by the performer, and on to Schnebel's 'Bagatellen', whose interpretation requires the use of the performer's voice. (Peter Roggenkamp)We have sought to put together a number of short pieces - or to inspire the creation of new ones - that contain no great technical difficulties.

This collection contains works, selected and arranged by Franco Cesarini, that explore the wide spectrum of Russian romantic music. On one side are the followers of Russian nationalism, including composers from Glinka and Mussorgsky, to Cui and Glasunov. They provide a contrast to the more western influenced music of Tchaikovsky and Rubinstein. The book comes with a CD which includes demos of each piece and piano accompaniments to play along with when a pianist isn't available.De stukken in dit album verkennen het brede spectrum van de Russische romantische muziek. Aan de ene kant zijn er de aanhangers van het Russische nationalisme -van Glinka en Moessorgski tot Cui en Glazunov.

Jahrhunderts ist voll von großen, ausdrucksvollen Flötensoli, während Solo- oder Kammermusikwerke für Flöte seltener zu finden sind.

Philip Sparke s third symphony, A Colour Symphony, was commissioned by sinfonischen blasorchester wehdel conducted by Thomas Ratzek. In the four movements (white, yellow, blue and red) the composer creates links between the instrumentation and harmonic elements and the actual colour of the spectrum the movement stands for. In order to create the greatest richness possible, Philip Sparke used a very large instrumentation including low woodwinds, harp, piano and celli. A Colour Symphony is an impressive and iconic addition to the standard repertoire for large symphonic bands.
