Gerald Finzi (1901–1956) gilt als seiner der populärsten britischen Komponisten des 20. Jahrhunderts, der für die hohe lyrische Qualität seiner Werke weltberühmt ist. Er wurde in London geboren, wo er auch seine frühe Kindheit verlebte. Nach dem Tod seines Vaters und dem Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges, zog er zunächst nach Yorkshire, später nach Gloucestershire, wo er mit dem Studieren und Komponieren begann. Zurückgekehrt nach London im Jahr 1926, wurde er Vaughan Williams, Holst und Bliss vorgestellt, und nahm die Stelle eines Lehrers an der Royal Academy of Music an. Nach der Heirat mit Joy Black verlies das Paar die Stadt und siedelte sich zunächst in Berkshire, dann in Wiltshire an, wo Finzi viel Freude daran hatte, in der wundervollen ländlichen Umgebung schreiben zu können. Er unterstütze und ermutigte Werke von Amateurmusikern, insbesondere durch die von ihm zu Kriegszeiten gegründeten Newbury String Players. Seine Suche nach neuen Werken für dieses Ensemble führte dazu, dass er inzwischen berühmt gewordene wissenschaftlich Ausgaben von englischer Musik des 18. Jahrhunderts herausbrachte. Dieses Album enthält Transkriptionen für Saxophon von Werken, die im Original entweder für andere Instrumente oder begleiteten Gesang geschrieben wurden. So erhalten auch Saxophonisten die Gelegenheit, dieses hoch expressive englische Repertoire kennenzulernen. Darunter sind Highlights aus Finzis Vokalwerken, wie Rollicum-rorum aus Earth and air and rain (ein Liederzyklus mit Vertonungen von Gedichten von Thomas Hardy), The Salutation and Wonder aus Dies natalis (ein Liederzyklus mit Vertonungen von Texten von Thomas Traherne), Who is Silvia? und Come away, come away, death aus Let us garlands bring (einem Set von Shakespeare-Gedichten), Amen aus Lo, the full, final sacrifice und Since we loved – dem letzten Lied, das Finzi vor seinem Tod 1956 schrieb. Außerdem enthalten ist eine Auswahl von Finzis Instrumentalwerken, darunter Themen aus seinem Klarinettenkonzert sowie seinem Cellokonzert, Eclogue, sowie Romance and Carol aus Five Bagatelles. Audios sind als Download oder Stream zugänglich. Schwierigkeitsgrad: 3

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. (Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music). Gerald Finzi (1901-1956) is one of the most popular 20th century British composers, renowned for the lyricism of his work. He was born in London, where he spent his early childhood. Following the death of his father, and the outbreak of the First World War, he relocated to Yorkshire and later Gloucestershire where he began to study and compose. Returning to London in 1926, he was introduced to Vaughan Williams, Holst and Bliss, and took up a teaching position at the Royal Academy of Music. Following his marriage to Joy Black, he moved away from the city, firstly to Berkshire and then to Wiltshire, where he enjoyed writing surrounded by the beauty of the English countryside. He supported and encouraged the work of developing amateur musicians, particularly through his wartime formation of the Newbury String Players. His search for new music for this group led him to produce celebrated scholarly editions of English music of the eighteenth century. This album transcribes works originally written for other instruments or accompanied voice, giving the saxophonist the opportunity to explore this most expressive English repertoire. It features highlights from Finzi's vocal writing, including "Rollicum-rorum" from Earth and air and rain (a song cycle formed of settings of Thomas Hardy's poetry), "The Salutation" and "Wonder" from Dies natalis (a song cycle with settings of texts by Thomas Traherne), "Who is Silvia?" and "Come away, come away, death" from Let us garlands bring (a set of poems by Shakespeare), "Amen" from Lo, the full, final sacrifice and "Since we loved" - the final song he wrote before his death in 1956.
