  • Bach, JC :: Quintett D-Dur [Quintet in D Major]

    Quintett D-Dur [Quintet in D Major]

    Bach, JC

    One of the most charming works by the London Bach is the present chamber music quintet. This quintet is probably one of the first compositions of its time to use an obbligato harpsichord in chamber music with larger instrumentation. The inclusion of two wind instruments and two strings lends a particular color to the composition. Each instrument is given ample opportunity for prominence in solo passages.

  • Bach, JS :: Sechs brandenburgische Konzerte [Six Brandenburg Concertos] BWV 1046-1051

    Sechs brandenburgische Konzerte [Six Brandenburg Concertos] BWV 1046-1051

    Bach, JS

    The six Brandenburg Concertos BWV 1046-1051, prized jewels of the world's musical heritage, were written in 1721 during Bach s appointment in Cothen. Of the six works, Bach originally wrote earlier versions of numbers 1 and 5 which differ not only with regard to articulation but also at times different tones, different rhythms, instrumentation and of course form.

    The New Bach Edition is an Urtext edition offering the world of scholarship a reliable musical text which is equally useful in performance. Prepared with the most exacting methods of source criticism, it has set new standards for modern scholarly-critical editions in the latter half of the 20th century. Work on the New Bach Edition led to the rediscovery of lost compositions and resolved many questions of authenticity in the Bach canon. Most of all, however, the close study of the sources has occasioned a large-scale revision of the chronology of Bach's life, thereby forming the basis for a new image of the composer in our time.

    In each series, the volumes not only contain those works by Bach which have survived intact but also those existing as fragments. In addition to a preface, each musical volume presents a selection of the relevant sources in facsimile. It is also accompanied by a separately published critical report (German text) describing all the extant sources for each work and the manner in which they interrelate. The report also gathers together all the known facts regarding the work s genesis and lists the most important variant readings.

  • Blank, A :: Polymorphics

    Polymorphics

    Blank, A

    Allan Blank's Polymorphics (1988) was commissioned by Currents, University of Richmond, Dr. Fred Cohen, Artistic Director and funded by a grant from the Virginia Commission of the Arts. The work, scored for double woodwind quintet, is in three movements. The instrumentation is for flutes 1 and 2, oboes 1 and 2, clarinets in A 1 and 2, F horns 1 and 2, and bassoons 1 and 2, with the score in C.

    From the composer:

    'The title reflects a concern I had, during its composition, to invent multiple melodic formations that unfold in a rich and expressive way without losing the thrust and believability of the overall line. Since this is not a work that pits one quintet against another, it is suggested that the seating be arranged semi-circular in groups of two for like instruments.'

    Symphony No. 8 - 1st Movement
    Boyce, W

    A composer, arranger, and master organist of the 18th century, William Boyce was popular in the English baroque era. When the new music of Mozart, J.C. Bach, and others overtook the public ear, Boyce's works were neglected and were only rediscovered in the early 20th century by Constant Lambert, who would champion his works. The eight symphonies (most of which were originally vocal or stage works) were first published in a modern edition in 1928 and have enjoyed a rebirth on the musical scene. His symphonies, in particular, are now acknowledged to be among the most played and most loved of any English Baroque musical works. Of the symphonies, only the eighth was originally conceived as an orchestral work. In Thorne's arrangement, the first movement (Pomposo/Allegro) becomes a wonderful program piece for large wind ensemble. For advanced ensembles.
