This exciting resource provides you with a variety of ways to introduce the great composers and their music to your students. The Teacher's Manual includes an informative narrative written so that you can read it aloud with your students or refer to it as you prepare your lesson plan. But that's just the start. To add a new dimension to the learning, there is a unison song to perform for each composer, as well as teaching suggestions, discussion activities, and reproducible pictures of each composer. And there are even informative 'side-bars? that bring the composers to life through short tales from their careers. The Reproducible Pak gives you masters of all the reproducible pages, allowing you to keep the Teacher's Manual intact. The Student Edition (in paks of 5 books) includes the composer picture, the narrative, and the vocal line only of each song. The professionally recorded CD will help you add a special touch to performances and free you from the piano in class or rehearsal. / Matériel D'Orchestre

Parti Orchestra-Today the Gloria RV 589 (BA 7674) is one of Vivaldi’s best-known compositions and one of the most frequently performed sacred vocal works from the Baroque period. Vivaldi wrote the “Gloria” as a self-contained work in the style of a concertante mass. However it was probably also performed within church services. The scoring of the solo voices (SSA) suggests that the work was written during his period at the Ospedale della Pietà around 1716. In the twelve movements of the “Gloria” Vivaldi displays the whole range of his mastery from festive sublime outer movements to tender transparently scored solo passages. Thesame mastery has also been applied to the “ Kyrie” RV 587 (BA 8950) scored for two choirs and two groups of stringed instruments. The date of its composition remains unclear. It is a purely a choral work without solo passages. Both works can be performed independently but can also be combined as a kind of short mass. Although the authenticity of the autograph manuscript score is beyond doubt these new editions contain some re-evaluations in phrasing and performance practice which go beyond what other editions have to offer. The Piano reductions are straightforward clearly presented and preserve the character of the works. - Attractive choral pieces which can be combined to form a short mass.
