Doesn?t everyone get butterflies in the stomach every now and then? Every person has known moments of being in love. Accordingly in Butterfly Overture a charming love theme has been employed which is introduced by the alto saxophone in the slow middle passage. Additionally the butterfly is a cheerful flutterer that never moves in a straight line but always with an unexpected motion. In the Vivace the flute initially performs the fluttering theme after which it has been instrumented in diverse variations throughout the entire band. A wonderful new addition to the Concert Band repertoire that will be a firm favourite for many years.

His songs and arias provide a concise tour of his stylistic journey and most of the songs are available in this remarkable volume. Includes: 9 songs (including 4 early songs); the complete 12 settings of Emily Dickinson's poems; 4 arias. The original key is retained in all the songs and arias.

Moonlight Serenade was composed in 1939 by Glenn Miller in his typically American big-band style. It was an immediate success and it even became the signature tune of Glenn Miller. The catchy melody has since been used in various films and television series. It has been performed in many styles from romantic to swinging. The Flanders Recorder Quartet likes to play this work with a low recorder consort: tenor F bass C bass great bass (each instrument then plays an octave lower). This gives the work a slightly “close harmony” feel. Of course the more usual line-up also does the music justice.

The ‘czardas’ Anitschka depicts the love story of a Hungarian and a gipsy girl called Anitschka. She is not easily seduced by her admirer but perseverance prevails in this musical tale: all’s well that ends well.

Missa Pro Defunctis- Cherubini owes his fame as a church composer primarily to the Requiem in C minor of 1817. It was held in extraordinarily high esteem by such composers as Beethoven and Schumann and served as a model for early 19th-century Requiem settings. Dispensing entirely with solo voices it captivates with its rigorous formal concentration and its restrained use of musical resources in both Choir and Orchestra. This Urtext edition takes into account not only the autograph score with spartitino (additional instruments written in by hand) but also the first edition and a copyist’s manuscript. Rounding off this exemplary Urtext publication is an informativeIntroduction and a Critical Commentary (Eng).

Vltava (The Moldau) is the most famous and frequently performed tone poem from the cycle Má Vlast by the Czech composer Bed ich Smetana . It was written between 20 November and 8 December 1874 but only in 1879-1880 with the completion of Má Vlast did it appear in print when Urbánek issued it in full score along with a version for Piano duet. Owing to the large number of misprints in the Urbánek first edition Hugh Macdonald has based this new edition on the autograph score with cross-references to the first edition and the composer’s own version for Piano duet. Conflicting readings in the sources are listed in the Critical Commentary alongwith a discussion of all editorial decisions. New Urtext edition with clear and uncluttered engraving. Informative foreword (Eng/Cz/Ger) including a contribution by Smetana scholar Olga Mojžíšová. Includes a detailed Critical Commentary (Eng).
