The nationalist style which dominated his early output is often seen to be epitomised by the 1890 work 12 Danza Espanola a collection of Spanish dances for the solo Piano. Andaluza is No. 5 from 12 Danza Espanola and is one of just a few of these rarely-performed Piano pieces which can be found individually. This high quality edition comes in a marbled cover and would be a perfect gift for any pianist interested in Spanish music.

Pastorale for Christmas-Though lesser known than some Christmas melodies this stately pastoral work incorporates the chorus of O Come All Ye Faithful (or Adeste Fideles) into the writing. The original melody by Yon is rather remarkable in its elegant beauty and sounds timeless and enchantingly ancient though it was written rather recently in 1917. Pietro Yon was an organist who spent most of his career at the St. Patrick Cathedral in New York. Yon was well regarded in his lifetime by fellow musicians notably among his pupils was the celebrated American songwriter Cole Porter and upon his passing in 1943 Arturo Toscanini himself was among those who attended his large funeral. This arrangementbegins solftly with a simple statement of the melody in the trumpets. The theme expands as it is passed around the various instrumental choirs with increasing use of counterpoint. Culminating in a joyous exhaultation the music winds to a gentle and serene conclusion. The score is well-cued in key sections where the melody is prominent.

Although he spent most of his life working as an organist and choirmaster he was familiar with many different keyboard instruments. He utilised this knowledge when composing his two volumes of The Well-Tempered Clavier (1722 and 1742) each a collection of 24 Preludes and Fugues in which heexplored the different harmonies of every key. Prelude And Fugue In A Major BMV 889 is No. 20 from Book Two of the Clavier . It is written in a typical Baroque form. This popular edition from thehighly-regarded musicologist Orlando Morgan is designed with the performer in mind and is still seen as the best edition available for students today.

This work written by Maxwell Davies in 1983 for chamber orchestra was commissioned to celebrate the quartercentenary of Edinburgh University. The first performance was given by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra conducted by EdwardHarper in October 1983. Duration c. 29mins. This work was thought through in outline following a visit to the ruined pre-Reformation church of Hoy in Orkney on a fine Spring afternoon after Maxwell Davies had played theharmonium for the tiny congregation in its large bleak Victorian replacement. The old church was surrounded by the graves of centuries the more recent ones with familiar names largely of people who lived in houses now ruinous –crofters fishermen clerics sea-captains. Next to it stood the chief farmhouse the Bu going back to Viking times. He thought of the lives and deaths encompassed there expressed through hundreds of years of music in thechurch and in the big barn of the farm. The plainsongs ‘Dies Irae’ and ‘Victimae Paschali Laudes’ are used throughout the work – the first concerning the Day of Judgement from the Mass for the Dead the second particular toEaster Sunday and the Resurrection. These are subject to constant transformation – the intervallic contour slowly changes from one into the other and their notes are made to dance through Renaissance astrological ‘magic square’patterns. The orchestra consists of double woodwind two horns two trumpets and strings.
