“Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992) is known for his unique composition style. Incorporating complex rhythms, harmony, melodies and his passion for ornithology, his The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ for Choir, Seven solo instruments and Orchestra is no exception to the composer's popular, distinctive style. Composed between 1965-1969, The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ is based on the account of Jesus' Transfiguration, found in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke. The work requires a huge 200 performers and with 14 movements, a typical performance lasts about an hour and a half. The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ incorporates Messiaen's popular compositional techniques, such as his modes of limited transposition, and the use of birdsong. Texts are largely based on the Bible. The Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ is essential to all advanced musicians seeking to expand and vary their ensemble repertoire on a large-scale.&rdquo.

E texts of the French author Anne-Marie Albiach have long been the point of departure for my works. Following the viola concerto << monstrueuse vecut dans le cadre >> la memoire, which is based on her << H II>> lineaires, the three texts entitled << une geometrie >> have generated a new cycle. As in the other two works of the cycle, << figurations de memoire >> is predicated on two different readings of the text: on the one hand a (private) reading by Anne-Marie Albiach in which time is measured [demarcated] out; while on the other hand the graphic text is measured millimeter by millimeter. The latter serves as the basis - the genetic code - for the temporal, horizontal structure of the quintet, whereas the reading of the author appears in rhythmic surfaces which interrupt the horizontal plane. In << figurations de memoire >> two clearly recognizable elements are repeated: the tone b (which plays a central roll in most of my works) and a chord of fifths built around the tone b - a piece of memory (memoire) from viola concerto. In contrast, the extended chords of the reading consist of five tones which in their frequencies are equidistant from each other (like an overtone chord). For the generation of tone materials the chords of both levels are compressed and stretched within the ranges (frames) of tones from which the horizontal positions of the text fragments are derived: lower, borderline tones on the left margin, and higher borderline tones on the right margin. Thus the disposition on the page, essential for Anne-Marie Albiach (and first introduced in poetry by Mallarme in Un coup de des jamais n'abolire le hasard), is rendered in sound. Naturally each element of the text serves to mold structure and dynamic, to include typography: fragments within quotation marks, in italics, etc., yield different sonorous images [sonorities] and movements. Each word from the typographical reading is orchestrated [instrumentated] differently, which is important for the whole cycle (however, the chords of the spoken reading are always played by five instruments; here only speech and pauses in speech [[interruptions of speech]are distinguished from each other). Thus a tight network of instrumental combinations is created in which, word for word, the text is made audible. The most important element in the process: the vertical, synchronized playing together of the individual instruments (Synchorniestudie), ranging from solo to quintet.

James Curnow explores many domains of sound with this wonderful piece. Four extensive variations, based on the melody of the hymn All Praise to You, Oh Lord, together form a beautiful piece of music for use in church services. The composer has a fresh view of the theme in the various fragments of the melody, from ethereal reflections to passionate joy. The last variation starts softly but energetically, and keeps developing using the last phrase of the melody - until the majestic highlight of this glorious hymn begins.Dans cette pièce superbe, James Curnow explore des domaines sonores extrêmement variés. S’inspirant de la reconstruction de l’église d’une ville américaine, Transfiguration (Métamorphose Symphonique pour Instruments Vent et Percussion) est une œuvre qui illustre le changement et le renouveau. Ici, l’idée de transformation est représentée musicalement par une série de quatre grandes variations sur le thème d’un chant religieux du XVIIIe siècle qui, dans chaque partie, se révèle sous un aspect nouveau.

Das Werk Franz Liszts erfuhr, ausgehend von den avantgardistischen Merkmalen des Spatstils, eine historische Umbewertung. Die Akzentuierung als eine Vaterfigur der musikalischen Moderne, die das Bild des romantischen Virtuosentyps revidiert bzw. erganzt, greift zusehends auf Werke der fruheren und mittleren Schaffensperiode uber. Vor allem im Bereich unkonventioneller Formverlaufe, die teilweise weit uber die programmatische Freizugigkeit der Neudeutschen Schule hinausweist, wie ungewohnlicher harmonischer Zusammenhange, die schon fruh hinter der virtuos-figurativen Aussenhaut das distanzharmonische Prinzip erkennen lassen, treten dabei in den Vordergrund.Die verschiedenen Beitrage in diesem Buch betonen so innerhalb der kunstlerischen Personlichkeit Liszts beide Aspekte als wesentliche, den der Virtuositat und den der Avanciertheit, um sie dem weit verbreiteten Vorurteil einer generellen Unvereinbarkeit zu entziehen.
