The energy and drive of this piece uses simple time signatures of 4/4 and 3/4 and mixes groups of three notes and syncopation to the rhythm and the melody. There is also a use of a musical term called hemiola, when groups of two beats are replaced by groups of three beats, creating a shift between duple and triple meter. Syncopation adds a modern, jazzy, popular feel to this exciting concert band composition. Along with syncopation and popular influences are countermelodies to the main theme that are as important as the melody for balance and blend. This adds a feeling of baroque or renaissance style to the texture. Yet the melodies, chords, and structure are recognizable and enjoyable to listen to and perform. The middle 3/4 section is slightly slower featuring brass and saxophones and played legato. Then at the key change, it becomes more articulate and contrapuntal. The a tempo at m. 88 returns to the original thematic material, differing slightly from the beginning, and the coda has some added technical and challenging woodwind passages. The cymbal/triangle part has a lot of directions on choking, hi-hat sound, etc., that will add nice color to the piece if performed as indicated.The energy and drive of this piece uses simple time signatures of 4/4 and 3/4 and mixes groups of three notes and syncopation to the rhythm and the melody.

With Berlin Music, Brett Dean wrote a threefold homage: to the classical duo consisting of violin and piano; to the violin virtuoso Midori, for whom the piece was written; and to the city of Berlin, where he lived between the mid-1980s and 2000 and whose rich cultural life he owes much to his development as a musician and composer. The first four, relatively short movements of the five-movement work form a suite of character pieces, which is followed by a longer final movement. In summary, this turns out to be the actual main movement from which all motifs and harmonies emerged in a compositional manner. This includes tuning down the G side by a whole tone - an apparently small difference, but one that has a major effect on the timbre and resonance of the instrumentand suddenly makes previously impossible interval sequences playable. In addition, the violin in the third movement (a moto perpetuo in which Dean bows to Ravel's violin sonata) has to play with a practice damper, while the pianist changes the instrument and plays on a standing piano that is dampened by a pedal and placed next to the concert grand Expressing nervous energy in tight college spaces.

In 1856, Bruckner composed the motet Ave Maria for choir, organ and violoncello for his old place of work, St. Florian. The work is quasi basso continuo in the style of late baroque Austrian sacred music. The intricate, polyphonically relaxed movement contains a short section for solo soprano and solo alto. The centrepiece is an expressive threefold Jesus a capella invocation. Score available separately - see item CA.338700.

Also known as Prosa in Nativitáte Dómini or the Portugese Hymn, Adeste, Fideles has been used at Benediction at Christmastide in France and England since the end of the eighteenth century. It invites all the faithful to come to Bethlehem to worship the newborn Savious. Although more than forty different English translations were made, Oakeley's translation O Come, All Ye Faithful was the most preferred, with additional verses translated by W.T. Brooke. All in all, the hymn has been translated into at least 125 languages and is one of the most popular of all Christmas hymns.Adeste, Fideles, das hier in einer festlichen Bearbeitung fu?r Blechbläserquintett und Orgel ad lib. vorliegt, wird schon seit dem Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts in Frankreich und England zur Segnung in der Weihnachtszeit verwendet. Das im deutschen Sprachraum als Herbei, o ihr Gläubigen bekannte Lied wurde auÃ?erdem in u?ber 100 weitere Sprachen u?bersetzt und ist damit eines der beliebtesten Weihnachtslieder weltweit. Lâ??hymne chrétienne Adeste Fideles [Adeste Fidelis] est également connue sous le nom de Prosa In Nativitáte Dómini ou encore Cantique portugais (parce quâ??il fut chanté dans la chapelle de l'ambassade du Portugal Londres). Depuis la fin du XVIIIe siècle, Adeste Fideles est chanté après la bénédiction de Noël dans de nombreuses églises françaises et anglaises. Le texte invite tous les croyants se rendre Bethléem pour adorer le Sauveur nouveau-né.Lâ??origine du cantique reste un mystère. On mentionne divers noms de poètes. Dâ??aucuns soutiennent quâ??il sâ??agit dâ??un noël ancien inspiré dâ??une danse autour de la crèche. On pense également que SaintFrançois dâ??Assise sâ??en serait servi pour sa crèche vivante. Dâ??autres attribuent son origine Saint Bonaventure, un prêtre franciscain, contemporain de Saint François, qui en aurait composé le texte original, en latin, au XIIIe siècle. Enfin, certains historiens affirment quâ??Adeste Fideles aurait été écrit par un poète anonyme français sous le règne de Louis XIV.Quoiquâ??il en soit, il est communément reconnu que les strophes ont été écrites ou découvertes par lâ??Anglais John Francis Wade (vers 1710-1786) alors quâ??il travaillait en tant que chercheur et copiste Douai en France. La première version imprimée du cantique date des années 1740. Elle fut ensuite intégrée au recueil Cantus Diversipublié en 1751.Catholique la c, John Francis Wade fuit lâ??Angleterre en proie des persécutions religieuses. Vers 1731, il copiait des manuscrits de plain-chant au Collège dominicain de Borhem en Flandre. Plus tard, il sâ??installa Douai dans le Nord de la France, forteresse de la foi catholique, où le roi d'Espagne Philippe II avait fondé une université, en 1559. Wade gagnait sa vie « en copiant et vendant des manuscrits de plain-chant et dâ??autres ?uvres ». Il fut également professeur de latin et de musique sacrée. La notice nécrologique mentionnait lâ??excellence de son travail de copiste, quâ??il réalisa pour des chapelles locales ou des.
