3 Trio Nété, Guitar Trio

Mesē

 

Mesē is the publishing house of Trio Nētē founded in 2010. This way the members of the trio would like to contribute to the supply of the guitar literature not only in the Czech Republic. Through Mesē the Trio´s own transcriptions and arrangements will be released together with the original pieces for three guitars written by distinguished contemporary Czech composers. These compositions were dedicated to Trio Nētē and the authors gave their kind permission to publish them.

 

Thomas Morley
Three Canzonets
or Little Short Songs to Three Voyces
Mesé 001


Though the Czech music will be emphasized the first Mesē´s title is the Three Canzonets by  English composer Thomas Morley. These Little Short Songs to Three Voyces from 1593 were aimed at amusing both a broad range of audiences and amateur musicians, and it was for this reason as well that they became very popular. The transcription of the songs is suitable for intermediate guitarists. Score + parts.

Pavel Josef Vejvanovský
Sonata Sancti Spiritus
Mesé 002

 

The short piece from the beginnings of Vejvanovský´s compositional activities was composed for two violins, two viols (da gamba) and basso continuo but its fanfare-like character seems to prove the fact that the author was also an excellent court bugler in Kroměříž during the second half of the 17th century. The arrangement is equally suitable for guitar with two melodic instruments.
Level of difficulty: intermediate. Score + parts.

Claude Debussy
Le petit nègre
Mesé 003

 

The first wave of American popular music in Europe at the beginning of the 20th century inspired Claude Debussy who dedicated his Little Negro to young pianists. The piece is a cakewalk, a high-stepping dance of the slaves in the American plantation south which gave the birth to ragtime
and later on to jazz.
Level of difficulty: intermediate. Score + parts.

Miloš Štědroň
Fauxbourdon
Mesé 004

 

Miloš Štědroň enjoys working with the music of old styles which he systematically connects with the contemporary musical art using the methods of collage or montage. Fauxbourdon for three guitars, a reflection on the compositional technique from the beginning of the 15th century, is a good example of such work. The piece was inspired by a detailed study of an, "uncomposable" fauxbourdon by Matteo da Perugia,
a foremost composer of that time.
Level of difficulty: difficult. Score + parts.

Erwin Schulhoff
Esquisses de Jazz
Mesé 005

No. 4 Blues
No. 5 Charleston

Erwin Schulhoff became a great promoter of jazz in the between-the-war Czechoslovakia and dedicated many pieces to it or, at least, he used it in some parts of the pieces. Himself a virtuoso pianist, Schulhoff was also a regular performer in the jazz orchestra of Jaroslav Ježek in the Liberated Theatre in Prague for several years.
Esquisses de jazz (Jazz Sketches) is the cycle of six short pieces which, in a witty manner, open the way to jazz music for piano beginners.
Level of difficulty: difficult. Score - parts.

”Why is it that after tuning the other strings one shifts mesé and then plays the instrument, the sound is painful and seems ill-adjusted not only when one plays the note belonging to mesé, but also in the rest of melody, while if one shifts lichanos or any other note, the difference is apparent only when one plays that note? Or is it only to be expected? All good tunes make frequent use of mesé: all good composers have continual recourse to this note, and soon revert to it when they leave it, but do not revert in the same way to any other note. Just as, if certain conjunctive words such as te and  kai [both mean ”and”] are removed, what is said is no longer Greek, while the removal of other words causes no offence (since some words must be used frequently if anything is to be said, but others need not), so mesé is, as it were, a conjunction between the notes, especially in good music, because its sound is involved most frequently.”
Pseudo-Aristotle, Problems XIX 20
