Vanquish is a cinematic piece that takes the listener on a musical journey. The piece begins dark and foreboding with well-placed harmonic tension that leads to an up-tempo driving section of the main material before a development and interplay between the two sections of the work.

As the prophets had long promised, the time had finally come for the advent of Jesus, the Son of God. But could this child, born in such humble surroundings, truly be the promised Savior and King? Where were the trumpets and fanfare announcing the Mighty One who would vanquish the enemy and deliver God's people? Could the prophecy be fulfilled with the promise of love and everlasting peace? No armies? No generals? No golden carriage? From the apparent dichotomy presented by that night in Bethlehem comes the premise for this thoughtful, inspired and tuneful seasonal work from the talented pen of John Purifoy. With the artfully-crafted weaving of a newly-composed Christmas benediction with Silent Night, a tender optional ending for a candlelight service and/or Christmas Eve is offered. Also available is a joyous reprise of the opening chorus for services in which an exciting and jubilant finale is desired.

A powerful opening characterized by darkness and mystery yields to a fast-paced musical journey as the Knights Templar prepare to vanquish their enemies in a battle during the Crusades. An excellent work for directors looking to push their percussion section without placing excessive demands on the winds.

To look at the great works of opera history is to see an endless series of vanquished women: murdered and abandoned, betrayed and glorified, despised and admired. The author, a philosophy professor and opera buff, has opened up a new and fascinating aspect of this art form. German translation of French original.

Here's a memorable and humorous contrast for your winter concert. A gregarious student or staff member in the guise of âBeethoven returnedâ suddenly appears on your concert stage in this comedy skit for band. The music begins as an innocent Christmas medley, but by the time it's over, âBeethovenâ owns your band, and you, the director, are vanquished from the stage. Of course there are lots of laughs along the way.

The Laurel Tree is rooted in the world of mythology, for it reflects the legend of Daphne and Apollo. As the story goes, Cupid, in a fit of spite, shot Apollo with an arrow that rouses love, then shot Daphne with an arrow that vanquishes love. Upon seeing Daphne, Apollo fell passionately in love. When he approached her, Daphne fled in terror, and Apollo chased after her. Just as she was about to be caught by Apollo, Daphne cried for help to her father, the river-god Peneus. She begged him to change her, to destroy her beauty, so that Apollo would no longer persue her. And so, Peneus turned her into a radiant laurel tree. The Laurel Tree looks at the legend of Daphne in psychological terms. In an essay titled Schizophrenia - the Inward Journey, Joseph Campbell refers to the image of Daphne turning into a laurel tree as the image of a psychosis, and shows that the imagery of the mythological hero journey matches that of schizophrenic fantasy. The movement titles and the structure of the piece are influenced by Campbell's writings on mythology, particularly his universal formula of the hero's journey. The first movement is based on the legend as described above, up to the moment Daphne is turned into a laurel tree. The second movement explores Daphne's inward retreat, deep into her psyche and backward in time, toward chaotic and terrifying experiences, to recover something missed or lost. The third movement tracks Daphne's return journey of rebirth to life, in harmony, at peace, richer, stronger, and more joyous.

The text for Or fia mai ver, o lontananza infida does not appear in Ottoboni’s Trattenimenti poetici, and its authorship is therefore uncertain. However, it exhibits one of Ottoboni’s most consistent stylistic ‘trademarks’ – the use of end rhyme throughout the recitative stanzas (i.e., not merely in a final couplet) – and the unusually serious treatment of the subject (the ability of a lover’s imagination to remain close to the beloved despite physical separation) is very much in his vein. It should be considered a candidate for his authorship. The text comprises two arias, each introduced by a short recitative, and a final recitative that is completed, in order to achieve a better sense of climax, by a ‘cavata’ – the name given to an extended setting, often in contrapuntal style, of one or two selected lines of recitative.

Was sind die Quellen musikalischer Fahigkeiten? Musikalische Lernwege gestalten sich selten eindeutig und zielgerichtet. Es gibt nicht nur Hauptwege des Lernens, sondern auch Nebenwege, Irrwege, Einbahnstrassen und Sackgassen oder in der Metapher der Quelle gesprochen: Es gibt unzahlige Quellen, Zuflusse, Gabelungen, Furten, Seen und Mundungen. Dieser als Festschrift fur Reinhart von Gutzeit konzipierte Sammelband geht der Frage nach, wie Musiker (Laien wie Profis) ihre kunstlerischen Fahigkeiten erwerben. Was sind die entscheidenden Momente, Situationen und Stationen, die fur ein erfolgreiches Lernen im Rahmen einer kunstlerisch-musikalischen Ausbildung verantwortlich sind? Welches sind die Menschen, die Musiker und Musikerinnen dabei in besonderer Weise unterstutzen und begleiten? Welche Rolle spielen etwa die verschiedenen Lehrerpersonlichkeiten, die Eltern, Geschwister, Grosseltern und Freunde wie Freundinnen? Welche besonderen Umstande und Situationenund welche glucklichen Zufalle mussen gegeben sein, damit musikalisches Lernen moglich ist? Die Autorinnen und Autoren der Beitrage geben vielfaltige Antworten. Neben der Rolle, die der erste Lehrer bzw. die erste Lehrerin spielt, werden weitere Quellen genannt, etwa das Elternhaus, besondere Stucke, schulischer Musikunterricht, Angebote an Hochschulen,kindliches Spiel, Elementare Musikpadagogik, Kreativitat, Singen im Chor und vor allem das unmittelbar erlebte eigene Musizieren undkunstlerische Tun. German.

Melodic contour and lightness of touch infuse Mozart's music with a divine character unmatched by any other composer. According to Dvorak Mozart is sunshine. Richard Strauss proclaimed Listen to the remarkable expansion of a Mozart melody. You think it's coming to an end, but it goes farther, ever farther. Alleluja from Exultate, Jubilate is perhaps the best-loved of all Mozart's motet melodies. Give your band the opportunity to experience Mozart's divine gift of melody with James Curnow's sensitive and accessible arrangement today! Charming!Zijn schitterende motet Exultate, Jubilate componeerde Mozart te Milaan in Italië, in het jaar 1773. Het was georkestreerd voor sopraan en gemengd koor, twee hobo’s, twee hoorns, strijkers en orgel. Het Alleluia hieruitis een zeer levendige en vreugdevolle lofzang. In deze bewerking voor harmonieorkest spelen de trompetten en trombones de koorpartijen, terwijl het hout en de overige koperinstrumenten de originele orkest- en orgelpartijen voorhun rekening nemen. Het werk wordt geleverd met optionele slagwerkpartijen.Dieses Alleluja stammt aus der Motette Exultate, Jubilate von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Die Instrumentation der Motette aus dem Jahr 1773 sah ursprünglich einen Sopran-Solisten, Chor, zwei Oboen, zwei Hörner, Streicher und Orgel vor. Dank der vorliegenden Bearbeitung des amerikanischen Komponisten James Curnow wird der Energie sprühende, freudige Jubelruf auch in der Interpretation Ihres Blasorchesters absolut überzeugen. Le motet a revêtu différentes formes au cours de son évolution et a joué un rôle important dans le développement de la musique polyphonique vocale entre les XIIIe et XVIIIe siècles. En janvier 1773, Mozart séjourne Milan en compagnie de son père et y écrit une œuvre originale pour le castrat Venanzio Rauzzini : le motet Exultate, Jubilate KV 165. Cette œuvre sacrée en trois parties rappelle une véritable sinfonia italienne : la pièce suit l’ordonnancement logique Allegro - Andante - Allegro final qui se termine par l’Alleluia, somptueux témoignage de virtuosité vocale.
