Authoritative Urtext edition of Johann Sebastien Bach 's Brandenburg Concerto No.4 In G BWV 1049 . The six Brandenburg Concertos BWV 1046-1051 prized jewels of the world's musical heritage were written in 1721 during Bach ’s appointment in Cöthen. Of the six works Bach originally wrote earlier versions of numbers 1 and 5 which differ not only with regard to articulation but also at times different tones different rhythms instrumentation and of course form. These Urtext publications [BA 5201-BA 5206] taken from the New Bach Edition now give performers the possibility to play these earlier versionsperhaps even along side the version known today.

August lebe lebe König from Cantata 207a-A Festive Tribute is an arrangement of a splendid chorus whichBach first used in the secular Cantata 207 of 1726 but is perhapsbetter known in its later version which appears in Cantata 207a thedescriptively titled Auf schmetternde Töne der muntern Trompeten which cannot be adequately translated but means something alongthe lines of ‘let the trumpets sound’. While the lyrics are perhaps alittle obsequious much of the music for this cantata is celebratoryand lushly scored for a large orchestra including trumpets oboesd’amore and flutes making it an ideal piece for a concert bandarrangement.

for Bassoon (or Baritone Saxophone) and Concert Band- Wind in the Reeds was commissioned by Deena Draycott in memory of John Watson an army bandsman teacher and bassoonist. Wind in the Reeds is both a tribute and lasting memorial to John. The piece is largely pastoral in nature evoking images conjured up by the ‘play on words’ in the title but includes a faster central section which exploits other aspects of the character of the bassoon. Transitions between the various sections of the piece are achieved through a series of accompanied cadenzas for the soloist.

Le passage à la monnaie unique aura été l’un des événements majeurs du début du XXIe siècle en Europe. Les pays qui y ont participé ont investi une énergie considérable dans la création de cette monnaie ; l’Euro est en effet le fruit de leur grande détermination et d’un remarquable travail commun. Sine Labore Nihil (“Rien ne s’accomplit sans travail”) André Waignein avait cette idée à l’esprit lorsqu’il a composé Euro Celebration (“Célébrons l’Euro(pe)”).

In writing this piece Gino Bergamini was inspired by the figure of Davy Crockett hunter and pioneer in the colonisation of the western part of North America. The piece is built entirely on the smooth succession of intriguing themes and characterised by sharp rhythms. The themes after a short elaboration with an expressive and meaningful style return in a finale with rich sonority to recreate the fascinating atmosphere of that mythical hero Davy Crockett.

Brahms composed his “ Violin Sonata In D Minor ” during the summer of 1886. The work quickly became part of the standard repertoire and has remained so until today. It is presented here in a fine Bärenreiter Urtext edition and comes with an unmarked Urtext part as well as a second part marked with fingering and bowing by Clive Brown which are based on the practices of Brahms ‘ contemporaries. An important part of this edition is the extensive preface. Firstly it informs about the works‘ origins its compositional process pre-publication performances its publication history as well as early reception. Truly remarkable is theunique Performance Practice Commentary. Here the editors take the premise that already a few decades after Brahms ‘ death a widening gulf developed between the composer’s expectations and the performance practices of the early 20th century. In a very concrete and practical way the editors summarize some of the key issues in understanding Brahms ‘ notation with regard to rhythm and timing dynamics and accentuation dots and strokes slurring and non legato Piano pedalling and overholding Piano arpeggiation and dislocation string instrument fingering string instrument harmonics and vibrato. In this way the edition offers an exciting and often surprising insight in Romantic musical interpretation. A pioneering Urtext edition. With an unmarked Urtext part. With a second part including fingering and bowing based on the practices of Joseph Joachim and other contemporaries of Brahms. With an extensive Performance Practice Commentary. For further information on Romantic performance practice we recommend: “Performance Practices in Johannes Brahms‘ Chamber Music” text booklet BA 9600.
