Especially obscure early music that's as transcendently beautiful and
accomplished as van Wasenaer's!

Congratulations, Aaron,  Well done!  And no 
surprise that a sometime sackbutt player is 
working in obscure early music, right?!!!

...about the new band transcription from MMB Music (www.mmbmusic.com) by
Finale list-member Aaron Rabushka, a publication that brings the subject
of a centuries-old musical whodunit to life in the colors of the modern
wind ensemble! Unico Willem Graf van Wasenaer’s Concertino #2 is a feast
of tonal and melodic beauty that comes from a series of richly scored
string-orchestra works whose authorship was in doubt for over 200 years
and which were often attributed to Handel or Pergolesi. This publication
joins another Rabushka entry in the MMB catalog, his transcription of the
overture to Joseph Haydn’s opera "L’Incontro Improvviso." For more
information contact MMB Music (Concert Music Division) at 800–543–3771 or
through their website.

In addition to these publications from MMB,
Rabushka’s music shows up on seven CD’s from Vienna Modern Masters
(http://www.xs4all.nl/~gdv/vmm/), and he is the subject of several
chapters of the recent book "Cathy Berberian and Music’s Muses", written
by the British aesthetician Jennifer Paull and available from Amoris
Imprints (www.amoris.com).
