Ajoutée par FS, 09 Oct 2008 Votive Antiphon for the Virgin Mary, an early work, possibly composed late in the reign of Henry VIII, considerably before the accession of Queen Mary, although another viewpoint is that it might have been composed in honor of the Queen, hence much later. Whichever is the case, the Gaude gloriosa Dei Mater is conceived and composed on a grand scale, bringing to mind the earlier Antiphons and Votive masses of Browne, Fayrfax and Taverner. Performance time is approximately 18-20 minutes. It is scored for six-part choir with alternating solo sections employing a total of nine soloists (SSAATTBarBB). The SSAA gymels over a solo bass at the fifth verse are particularly effective. Source / Web : | http://www.choralwiki.org | |
