2nd Movement- Transcription of the slow movement of Rachmaninov's First Piano Concerto op 1. Programme note by Murray McLachlan: Rachmaninov's first concerto in F sharp minor op 1 was composed in 1891 and dedicated to Alexander Siloti. The work was substantially revised in 1917 with textures made much lighter. The revised version is also more concentrated and disciplined with the material eliminating some of the earlier episodic sections entirely from the score. The second movement is an exquisite 74 bar miniature a nostalgic nocturne that is contrapuntally rich. In this soloversion the use of all three pedals and the middle pedal in particular make it possible to project the multifaceted textures the 'colour counter-point' that along with Rachmaninov's chromaticism enhances his considerable melodic gifts. Was Rachmaninov the 'Russian Bach?' Certainly his genius for 'inner voices' 'inner melodies' and counter-melodies make his music an inexhaustible treasure house of possibility for the creatively charged solo pianist. In Rachmaninov's piano writing there is simply no such thing as 'padding' or anonymous accompaniments- every line can be vocally or orchestrally charged making the music glow with richness and inspiration. This transcription was given its world premiere on April 1- Rachmaninov's birthday- in 2017 in New York as part of a recital for the Lezetizky society. Further performances were given on what was an intense US Easter tour in Washington Texas Boston and Vermont. I've also performed the transcription in Canada and the UK.

Einfache Noten - hochster Anspruch Arvo Pärts Musik schon zu spielen heiBt die Perfektion des Klangs zu erreichen. Eine Musik an der vordergrundige Virtuosität ubermäBige Dynamik oder Effekt beladenes Ausdrucksspiel einfach abprallen die aber im Gegensatz dazu jedem einzelnen Ton den notigen Raum zur vollkommenen klanglichen Entfaltung gibt. Fur den Komponisten ist dies das erklärte Ziel fur den Interpreten eine schwer zu erfullende Aufgabe. Seine Komposition Summa realisierte Pärt selbst bereits in mehreren Besetzungen - ursprunglich fur Chorgeschrieben dann arrangiert fur verschiedene Streicherbesetzungen. Bestätigung im musikalischen Streben nach Perfektion in der Einfachheit findet sich auch im vorliegenden Saxophon-Arrangement das Pärts intensiven und faszinierenden Sensibilisierungslehrgang zur Optimierung von Klang Intonation und Zusammenspiel um eine Klangvariante erweitert.
