Lentini's Ballad

Giacomo da Lentini was a 13th century Italian poet who was a notary at the court of the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II and is said to have invented the sonnet. Lentini’s Ballad is based on the famous poem ‘Amor è un desio che ven da core’ (Love is a desire that comes from the heart). It sounds great as an instrumental work, but there is also an option for a vocal version using the Italian lyrics of the poem, making the arrangement even more special!

A Bach Selection

These three pieces can serve perfectly well as a suite of sonatas - a coherent but varied whole - although in their original form they are unrelated. The adaptations have been kept to a minimum, so that the true Bach is still abundantly present in the music. Contains: Prelude XXII from The Well-Tempered Clavier • Adagio (originally from the Sonata for violin and obbligato harpsichord in B minor, BWV 1014) • Allegro from the Sonata for viola da gamba and harpsichord BWV 1028.

Così fan tutte : Overture

In 1786 Mozart composed his wonderful opera Le Nozze di Figaro (KV 492). The Italian libretto, based on the play Le mariage de Figaro by Beaumarchais, was written by Lorenzo da Ponte—who also made the libretti of Mozart’s opera’s Don Giovanni and Così fan tutte. In the opera Le Nozze di Figaro, Count Almaviva tries to seduce the fiancée of Figaro, his valet. Eventually, through four acts full of complicated intrigue, he is outwitted. In his music, Mozart—at times in a humorous way—reflects the numerous social and erotic intrigues with both empathy and insight. The brilliant overture is just as vivacious and witty as the opera itself. Mozart delightfullyanticipates the passion and playful love that is to come. The skillful transcription for concert band by Tohru Takahashi certainly does justice to this appealing music.
