This score is a flute and harp duet arrangement of ?Concerto pour une voix" (Concerto for One Voice), a crossover contemporary classical / pop song written by French composer Saint-Preux in 1969. It was originally intended as a purely instrumental piece for trumpet and strings, but after hearing French singer Danielle Licari practice in a recording studio, Saint-Preux decided record his work with her. She sung the solo trumpet part using a vocalise technique similar to scat singing in jazz to imitate a brass instrument. The song, which doesn't bear any lyrics, was a thunderous success upon its release and made both her career and his.

The PDF file includes both the score and parts. It is suitable for advanced students as well professionals looking for a popular addition to their repertoire. Duration: 4?30.

Latin.

This motet for soprano, tenor and organ without pedal ranks among the little, yet particularly valuable pieces of Rota for singing voice and organ. Originally, 'Tota pulchra es' ('You are completely beautiful') is a song of Mary from the 4th century which praises the immaculacy of the Virgin Mary. In Rota's version, the Latin verses describe the beauty of the beloved. At the end, the dialogue between soprano and tenor blends into a melancholy duet of tonal beauty.
