The All-Round Man: Selected Letters of Percy Grainger, 1914-1961
ISBN: 9780198163770 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Percy Grainger was one of the most colourful of this century's cultural figures. The All-Round Man depicts that scrambling diversity through seventy-six challenging letters from Grainger's "American" years, 1914-61. These letters are fascination to read: they are cultivated "rambles" (as Grainger actually called several of his compositions), not dissimilar to today's telephone conversations.

The Warriors: Study score
ISBN: 9781932419573 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Grainger's extraordinary work, subtitled "music to an imaginary ballet," was prompted by a request from the English conductor Thomas Beecham to compose a ballet score for the Diaghilev company. The commission never materialized, but Grainger nevertheless proceeded to create a his most adventuresome work to date - employing a large orchestra with an expanded percussion section and three pianos, requiring three conductors for coordination. The world premiere for the now imaginary ballet took place in December 1919, with the composer on a piano plus the Chicago Symphony conducted by Frederick...

The Merry Wedding: Vocal score
ISBN: 9781932419887 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 38 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In a departure from his usual practice of setting traditional melodies, Grainger instead chose to set a traditional text to original music - in an English translation made with his mother Rose - of a Faroe Islands wedding verse originally collected by V. U. Hammershaimb in 1886. The result is a raucous celebration for 9 vocalists, chorus, and orchestra. This new vocal score is a digitally-enhanced reprint of the one originally issued in 1916 by Oliver Ditson.
