Beethoven's 'Romances' are performed all over the world yet how many conductors performers and listeners are aware that op. 50 which was incidentally composed before op. 40 comes down to us in an unfinished form? The autograph score contains little to no articulation or dynamics and to the present day the work has existed only in highly over-edited publications. The performer has no way of knowing what was originally intended by the composer. Bärenreiter’s new Urtext edition of opp. 50 and 40 offers the score to op. 50 twice; the first score reflects the state of Beethoven’s autograph with editorial markings clearly indicated the second score has beenedited based on other works by Beethoven from that period. This manner of publishing remains true to the sources and at the same time offers musicians a reliable transparent score for performances. In addition to the Urtext solo part a second solo part with fingering and bowing by Detlef Mahn is also included in the piano reduction. - Piano reduction which includes an Urtext solo part as well as an additional solo part with fingering and bowing - The score to op. 50 available in two versions - Detailed critical commentary (Eng) Barenreiter no.

Oratorio- Immediately after completing St. Paul in 1836 Mendelssohn mulled over the idea of composing a further oratorio. However a whole decade elapsed before the composition of Elijah which takes as its theme the story of the Biblical prophet from the 1 st Book of Kings. When he received the invitation to write a major work for the Birmingham Music Festival Mendelssohn finally embarked on work on the oratorio. Elijah was premiered in 1846 in Birmingham with great success and has enjoyed great popularity ever since. Following the firstperformance Mendelssohn undertook a revision of the oratorio in which whole numbers were removed and new ones substituted. This is the version which was first heard in 1847 in London and which is still performed today. To mark the Mendelssohn anniversary year 2009 the Mendelssohn specialist Douglass Seaton Professor at Florida State University prepared a critical new edition of the oratorio. The edition reflects the latest research findings and includes both English and German singing texts. A critical commentary completes the new edition. - One of Mendelssohn's most popular works in an edition reflecting the latest editorial knowledge - Bärenreiter-Urtext including numbers from the original version for the first time - English and German singing texts - Critical Commentary (Eng)

Vocal Feature- Another outstanding jazz vocal with jazz ensemble! This chart is totally flexible--it's written in two keys! The higher key usually works for your male vocalist and the lower key for your female vocalist; if not just switch. It's that easy! In addition to the vocal solo this swinging Rogers and Hart song has a trombone jazz solo (or optional scat vocal solo) and written written ensemble horn lines for the vocalist both great opportunities to integrate your vocalist with the ensemble. Dave Wolpe thinks of everything and he writes some of the best charts in the music business. Very effective! (Female key (low): G below middle C to third line B treble clef -- Male key(high): B-flat below middle C to fourth line D treble clef)

Bolero was originally written as a ballet for a famous ballerina and achieved great success on the stage. Nowadays the ballet itself is only rarely performed and even though Ravel thought the orchestra would seldom play it it has become one of the best-loved pieces for the concert stage. This arrangement by Philip Sparke keeps very close to the original score in this melodically and rhythmically unique work.
