from 'Pictures at an Exhibition'-The Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky (1839-1881) was self-educated to a large extent but went on to become one of the ?Mighty Five? which also included Balakirev Cui Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov. Today he is considered the innovator of Russian music par excellence. He composed Pictures at an Exhibition in 1874 inspired by ten pictures produced by his then recently deceased friend the Russian architect and artist Victor Hartmann. The French composer Maurice Ravel made an orchestration of Mussorgsky?s composition in 1922 which is now more well-known and more performed than the original piano suite. For his transcription of Pictures at an Exhibition Tohru Takahashimade use of the original piano composition by Mussorgsky. The Great Gate of Kiev issued here separately is probably the best known melody from this classical masterpiece.

A major influence on Bach — who once walked 200 miles to hear him perform — Buxtehude is among the great names in Organ music and the study of counterpoint. Born five decades after Heinrich Schütz the 'father of German musicians ' and a little less than half a century before Bach he bridged the era between the founder of Protestant Baroque music and its greatest master. This collection of church chorales attests to Buxtehude 's reputation as an outstanding composer of sacred Vocal music. For his texts the composer drew upon scripture as well as church hymns and contemporary or medieval sacred poetry. Albert Schweitzer in his famous biography ofBach observed that Buxtehude 's chorale preludes are 'chorale fantasias of the most varied kinds from the simplest to the most ingenious. In the simple ones the melody goes its way quietly just embellished here and there with a few ornaments and accompanied by interesting and always ingenious harmonies. . . . In the large chorale preludes Buxtehude tears the melody in pieces throws the fragments into the flood of a brilliant animated fantasia.' Authoritative and modestly priced this treasury of Buxtehude 's works offers organists a source of endless satisfaction and inspiration. Reprint of the Breitkopf & Härtel Leipzig 1903 edition.

for Flute and Basso continuo nos. 1 - 6-An ABRSM syllabus title 2014-21 Grade 5-6. Benedetto Marcello (1686-1739) published his flute sonatas Op. 2 in 1712 in venice. This was the first printed sheet music in italy to prescribe explicity and exclusively the use of tfe flauto. Marcello may have modelled his work on the sonata-cycle op. 5 by Corelli which appeared in 1700. In this cycle Corelli summed up the possibilities of violin technique and the related compositional technique of his age. For his part Marcello did the same for flautists. The flute sonatas soon became popular and have remained so ever since: three different editions have survived from the 18th century. The present edition (Z. 13476 Z. 13477) wasproduced by collating the three 18th-century sources. Urtext edition of Marcello: 12 Sonatas for Treble Recorder and Continuo - Volume 1 (Sonatas 1-6)Sonata I in F MajorSonata II in D MinorSonata III in G MinorSonata IV in E MinorSonata V in G MajorSonata VI in C Major

The Golden Age is a programmatic composition in four movements. I Overture For the Netherlands the seventeenth century was a period of great flourishing in the fields of economy culture and politics; thus it is called the Golden Age. Overseas trade boomed and the Dutch East India Company (known as the VOC by the Dutch) was founded and expanded to become a powerful -and at the time - modern enterprise. II ¡Adiós españoles! (Farewell Spaniards!) In 1567 the Spanish army invaded led by the Duke of Alva. There was a fierce resistance against the Spanish tyranny; toward the end of the sixteenth century the Dutch proclaimed theRepublic. However the Spanish continued the war. Only with the Treaty of Münster in 1648 did the Dutch get their much sought-after independence. This was also the end of the Eighty Years’ War. III Rembrandt’s Night Watch The field of culture particularly literature painting sculpture architecture the art of printing and cartography developed fast. It was in the Golden Age that the celebrated painter Rembrandt van Rijn created his famous Night Watch. IV The Admiral Overseas trade entailed the colonization of large areas in Asia from where precious products that yielded lots of money were brought in. Surrounding countries were also involved in such practices. Colonizers poached on each other’s territories in the literal and figurative sense - in this context the Anglo-Dutch Sea Wars are legendary. The fourth movement starts with the English patriotic song Rule Britannia after which the Dutch Admiral Michiel de Ruyter makes the English change their tune; one can even hear the roaring of cannons. When the smoke of battle has cleared a small fragment of a Dutch song about Michiel de Ruyter appears followed by a fitting closing.
