14863dacbaaed-9e39-11f0-a418-0022482c9682A314102Rigoletto: Act III, Aria: La donna e mobile (tenor)Based on the 1832 play LE ROI S’AMUSE by Victor Hugo, Giuseppe Verdi’s (1812-1901) RIGOLETTO was the composer’s sixteenth entry into the genre and is widely considered one of the first operatic masterpieces of his career. Despite serious initial problems with the Austrian censors who had control over northern Italian theaters at the time, the tragic tale of the licentious Duke of Mantua, his hunch-backed jester Rigoletto, and Rigoletto’s beloved daughter Gilda was triumphantly premiered on March 11, 1851 to a sold-out La Fenice Opera House under the direction of Gaetano Mares. RIGOLETTO has remained as popular with audiences today as it was at its debut. While initially critics condemned the work for its tragically dark plot partnered with what they claimed was "popular" but insubstantial music, the opera has since gained overwhelming positive reception. The Duke of Mantua sings the popular canzone LA DONNA È MOBILE in Act II, declaring that woman is as fickle as a feather in the wind. Igor Stravinsky even remarked, "... there is more substance and feeling [in the aria "La donna è mobile"] than in the whole of Wagner’s Ring Cycle."

14867DAD3CFB8-9EC4-4FA7-9D9A-8F750A989581V106Early Songs: Art Songs by American Women Composers v. 11With this series, Southern Music Company initiates the first published collection of art songs set to music exclusively by American women. The songs span the whole of the twentieth century, and the majority of them are by living composers, with the notable exceptions of Amy Beach, Mary Howe, and Florence Price. All of the songs have been selected on the basis of poetic choice, strength in text-setting, and accessibility in performance. These eight songs by German (though forced to flee during the Hitler regime) composer Ruth Schonthal, through lyricism, matches the flow of Rainer Maria Rilke's poetry, and demonstrate the composer's early mastery of vocal and pianistic writing in the German Lieder tradition. Songs: I. Meine fruhverliehnen Lieder, II. Arme Hellige, III. Ihr Madchen seid wie die Kahne, IV. Erste Rosen erwachen, V. LIEBES-LIED, VI. Weisse Seelen, VII. Noch ahsnt du nichts, VIII. Ich will ein Garten sein.Vocal

14872DAE4E5E3-11F9-4BB9-97F8-BCF2D35855E9A905102Boheme, La: Act I, Aria: Che gelida manina (tenor, C)LA BOHÈME (THE BOHEMIAN), one of the most beloved and commercially-successful operas, is based on the 1851 novel Scenes of Bohemian Life by Henri Murger. With a libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa, Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924) worked on it from 1893 to 1895. It first appeared at the Teatro Regio in Turin on February 1, 1896, conducted by 28-year-old Arturo Toscanini. Weighed negatively against Turin's recent Italian premiere of the Wagner opera GOTTERDAMMERUNG, it received a lukewarm response from audience and critics. A few months later, concertgoers filled opera houses on both sides of the Atlantic to hear it. In Act I, Rodolfo the painter has just met Mimi in the darkness of his garret while trying to look for a key she has lost. Their hands meet in the gloom; singing CHE GELIDA MANINA, he introduces himself as a poet, poor in circumstance, but whose dreams of love make him a millionaire at heart.

Marie Pauline Hall, to whom the work was dedicated, gave the first performance of the original violin and piano version, here presented in a Masters reprint edition, at Shirehampton Public Hall on December 15, 1920, beside pianist Geoffrey Mendham. After World War I, the composer expanded the work for soloist and full orchestra. This has become the version most familiar to listeners. The violin, lifting its silvery tones above the stage, captures the soaring nature of Meredith’s couplet: "Till lost on his aerial rings/In light, and then the fancy sings."

14877DAF2BAAF-4D90-461C-B0C9-26EC0BC075F050760008The Indian Character Piece, Bk. 2This unique collection of Indian character pieces reveals a genre that has been neglected for many years, with much of the music having been out of print since the 1920's. Musically, the pieces are appealing to play and are a fascinating reflection of social and political issues our nation was facing at the turn of the 20th century. Contains detailed historical notes on this nearly forgotten aspect of American classical music, along with supplementary fingerings and practice suggestions added throughout by editor Stephanie Bruning, professor at Morgan State University, who is both a celebrated piano performer and expert in piano pedagogy.Piano

14880DAF3E53A-7D34-43C7-A889-3CBE9B30D6E4SU305Toccata from "Suite Gothique"Leon Boellmann (1862-1897) was known in his short life as a dedicated teacher, gifted composer, and an excellent organist. He left 68 public works, among which the best known are "Variations Symphoniques for Cello and Orchestra", a symphony, and "Fantasie Dialoguee for Organ and Orchestra". Perhaps his most famous for organ is his "Suite Gothique". The Toccata is the final movement of the suite, and such is the dark mood created by the composer, that one might imagine that this music was composed to accompany a silent horror movie. Instrumentation: 3 standard flutes, alto flute and bass flute.Flute Quintet: 3 Standard Flutes, Alto Flute and Bass Flute
