About This Item
Switzerland: Norbert Moret, 1987. Soft cover. Very Good. 'A Sir Colin Davis cordialement Norbert Moret, Londres 20 Octobre 1990', presentation copy of this very large spiral bound score from the composer Norbert Moret. This composition for the fiftieth anniversary of the Lucerne Festival features four songs for soprano and orchestra. This score is from a large collection of scores that belonged to the conductor Sir Colin Davis, many annotated and used in performance, almost all from the post-war period and including at least two examples of scores from which he conducted the work's premier: Thea Musgrave's Clarinet Concerto (Davis was himself originally a clarinettist by training) and Malcolm Williamson's The Stone Wall which Davis premiered at the Last Night of the Proms in September 1971. Most of the scores are full size performance versions, several including this one very large indeed in order to accommodate the scoring of a post-Schoenberg orchestra. Davis achieved global recognition for his conducting with a particular enthusiasm for the music of Mozart, Berlioz, Elgar, Sibelius, Stravinsky and Tippett. Very Good 1987
