Commissioned by Sisu with the assistance of the Arts Council of Ireland and the Fond for lyd og bilde Oslo. Written for Sisu. Each player has 8 drums played with sticks (one high set and one lower set) chosen for theirnon-ethnic sound quality and 1 bass drum played with a footpedal. The drums should be tuned in equal steps of roughly a tone apart each set of drums (starting with the highest set of player 1) being roughly a tone lower than theone above so that all the drums notated on the second lowest line of the stave (for example) should have the same pitch. The drums should be tuned in a scale of equal steps each slightly smaller than a whole tone. There shouldbe no minor thirds if possible. The higher set of 4 drums are notated in the spaces and should be roughly equivalent to rototoms or bongos the lower set is notated on the lines of the stave and should be roughly equivalent totom-toms or congas. The bass drum is notated at the bottom of the stave with stems facing downwards.

For solo Piano two Harps and Strings (full score).

The antiphon 'O Sapientia' (with a text from the Old Testament Book of Wisdom) bears testimony to Pawel Lukaszewski's genuine artistry and to his fascinating very individual musical imagination as an academic composer (hestudied composition at the Music Academy in Warsaw where he is a lecturer at present) as well as to his vast knowledge and profound understanding of the immense wealth of choral church music tradition. He is a man deeplyinvolved in the development of new liturgical music the organiser of an association a competition and a festival of sacred music as well as founder of a choir in one of Warsaw's two cathedrals. 'O Sapientia' is neither eclecticnor experimental - it is rather a mature continuation of the tradition on the highest artistic level. For unaccompanied SATB chorus (with divisions) with a Piano accompaniment for rehearsal purposes.

This work was commissioned by Riga Youth Choir who gavethe first performance in Riga on 3rd July 2008. Based on a poem by Frithjof Schuon. The composer writes Frithjof Schuon's poem The Eternal Sun speaks of our earthlysun as a reflection of the Divine Sun which no earthly eye can see and the music reflects this in its mirror images. The opening music for the main choir should glow with magnificence and splendour representing theunattainability of the Heavenly Sun but the later passages especially the music for the distant semi-chorus should be more nostalgic and haunting.

Written for SATB choir organ and optional solo trumpet. Words by John Donne.

Clarinet parts in A Bb and Eb.

Selim Palmgren (1878-1951) was a Finnish composer pianist and conductor whose talents often led to him being compared to Chopin. He studied in Helsinki and Berlin before touring successfully as a concert pianistacross Scandinavia and the United States. He later held posts as a Professor of Composition on both sides of the Atlantic. He was one of the last members of the Romantic movement but struggled to find his own individual stylefrom behind the domination of Sibelius. En Route (Op. 9) was written in 1901 as a concert study for solo Piano. It is a great example of Palmgren’s miniature style creating maximum effect from minimaleffort through still requiring great technical dexterity.

Pibroch which literally means ‘piping’ in Scots Gaelic has been traditionally played on the bagpipes for several centuries. But there is an earlier tradition of pibroch having been performed on the wire-strung Celtic harp andit is this earlier practice that Bantock recalls with the arpeggiated accompaniment of the harp or Piano in his Pibroch. The throaty Cello tones carry the sadness of the lament.Composer conductor and educator Granville Bantock’sScottish parentage certainly influences much of his music oeuvre which is reaching new audiences through renewed interest in the performance of his works including at the last night of the Proms. He was an energetic andcreative personality who was key in founding the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and championing the music of Jean Sibelius in his day. Edward Elgar dedicated the second of his Pomp and Circumstance Marches to Bantock.

Hebrew Melody arranged for Cello and Piano or Harp. Includes score and part.

Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915) was a Russian composer and pianist. He was one of the most famous musicians within the Russian Empire during his lifetime but remained virtually unheard-of in the West and was quicklyforgotten after his death. His best known works are his 5 symphonies but he also wrote hundreds of Preludes and Etudes. Etude in C Sharp Minor was one of Scriabin’s earliest published works beingthe first of the Trois Morceaux (Three Morsels) that formed his second opus. It is a delicate work which modulates through several connected keys and at a similar level to the Etudes of Chopin. A perfect recital item forany pianist who wants to master a piece by an under-performed composer.
