Added by bernard-dewagtere, 06 Oct 2011 In the seventeenth century and eighteenth century, the composition of Te Deum-known in Europe a great vogue. This mode is clearly due to the political significance took this religious song. It was always sung at celebrations in honor of the sovereign: the celebration of a Te Deum was so clearly identified with the desire to honor the sovereign in place. Thus, a Te Deum was sung in every church in France following a royal victory: the Te Deum by Marc-Antoine Charpentier recalls a victory - misidentified - Louis XIV built in 1690 or 1693.

This is a very good and very effective arrangement for saxophone quartet. Although easy to play, the content and music make it interesting to the listener. |
