Motet for two mixed choirs- Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied BWV 225 - Motet in B major for two four-part mixed choirs In Bach’s voluminous output of music the motets form a small group of modest proportions particularly as compared to the 200 or so surviving cantatas. In historical perspective however the corpus of motets is especially distinguished being the only part of Bach’s vocal œuvre whose post-1750 tradition has remained unbroken to the present day.

Scenes from Lake Constance-Armin Schaer commissioned this work in his search for a new piece for the tuba. More specifically he wanted a work that showed off the versatility of this splendid instrument written in a musical style that is both fresh and modern while not banishing the orchestra to a simple supporting role. Taking all these specifications into account Thomas Doss created a work that allows stylistic leaps and is fun exciting romantic and virtuosic but does not lose sight of the thread that connects the opening measures to the very last.Armin Schaer describes his Panoptikum as follows: Panoptikum is a show of appreciation for my beautiful home and community at LakeConstance an eventful life the people that have enriched this life and a fascinating instrument: the tuba. This work musically embodies the many different moods found around theBodensee - cheerfulness and melancholy departures and longing calm and agitation. The roles of the soloist and the orchestra were consciously crafted in a way that does not follow the usual conventions of the genre. The work should spark emotions address broad segments of listeners and persuade them of the tuba’s ability to be a solo instrument as well as the richness symphonic wind ensembles have to offer. I hope this work enriches the lives of all the soloists and orchestras that cross its path as well as everyone in the audience who gets to partake!

for Solo Euphonium and Concert Band-On pense surtout au ragtime comme à de la musique pour piano mais il a aussi existé sous forme orchestrale. Le ragtime est étroitement apparenté à une forme de jazz qui est devenue le dixieland. Euphonium Ragtime est un authentique ragtime pour Euphonium et Orchestre d’Harmonie gracieux dynamique et au charme d’antan. Très original !

Dramatic arias-These two settings of French texts for soprano and orchestra were Goldschmidt final compositions. The first Judith by Pierre le Moyne (1602-71) describes the Jewish woman who wreaks vengeance on her Assyrian captor Holofernes by creeping into his tent at night and cutting off his head with a sword. The second Rondel sets a poem by Tristan Corbiere (1845-75) a highly unconventional writer who spent his life in complete obscurity in Brittany and was posthumously discovered by Verlaine. Together these ‘dramatic arias’ form a moving and fitting close to Goldschmidt’s compositional career with an economy of expression line and gesture characteristic of his late style. Eacharia may be performed separately if desired. Study Score - Hawkes Pocket Score 1334. Goldschmidt B
