From the composer's notes: "The starting point...is the familiar Gregorian chant Veni, creator spiritus. During the introduction a 'sound shape'of twenty-five notes progressively emerges from the initial line of this chant. From this 'sound shape' the 'time shape is derived and together they regulate all horizontal, vertical and metrical processes..." Duration 21 minutes. Parts available on sale from the publisher.

This oratorio was Tippett's artistic and emotional response to the events that led to the "Kristallnacht" pogrom of November 1938. Tippett used as his formal and historical models the Bach Passions and Handel's Messiah. Tippett's use of the spiritual serves as equivalent for the Lutheran chorale of the Bach's time. By 1941, when Tippett had completed the composition of his oratorio, the practicalities of staging a performance during wartime were difficult to say the least. However, through the direct agency of his lifelong friends and professional colleagues, Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears, the work was performed in 1944, with Pears himself as tenor soloist.

Maurice Ravel's unparalleled flair for orchestration is on full display in his masterful arrangement of his own piano showpiece, Alborada del Gracioso.This vibrant and colorful work is an audience favorite and a staple of the concert hall. It is here paired with the Prelude and Danse du Rouet that were written especially for the ballet version of Ravel's fairy tale suite, Ma Mere la Oye.

Mascagni's first produced opera (1890), and ultimately his most successful, Cavalleria Rusticana is a tempestuous drama of adultery and revenge set in a remote Italian village. Its earthy passions, bold confrontational scenes and richly melodic score set a fashion for so-called verismo opera that would endure for more than a decade. It is still a great repertoire favorite, almost always double-billed with Ruggiero Leoncavallo's Pagliacci (also available in a Dover edition.) Reprinted from the authoritative edition issued by the German publishers Bote & Bock.

Premiered in 2001 by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Daniel Barenboim, conductor, Yo-Yo Ma, cello. 18 minutes.
