This new edition of “Exsultate lusti in Domino” was prepared from Denkmaler der Tonkunst in Osterreich. An excellent example of eighteenth-centuray choral writing, this work is a wonderful teaching tool as well as an impressive performance piece. The double choir effect of women and men creates a rich texture, which routinely alternates between major and minor modes. The result is a complex sounding, yet only moderately difficult work, accessible to high school, college, and church choirs.

If you aren't aware already, Briton Jacob Collier has firmly established himself as the preeminent composer, theorist, improviser, multi-instrumentalist, and vocalist of the modern era. Collier's Grammy-winning arrangement of “Moon River” is a thrilling exercise in form and style. A cappella arranger extraordinaire Paul Langford has taken Jacob's iconic arrangement and has meticulously set it to eight-to-twelve vocal parts on the page. While this would be one of the most difficult arrangements your choir could tackle, it would also turn out to be one of the most rewarding!

Magnificat by Magdalena Zimmermann for mixed choir (SSAATTBB) plays with harmony, rhythm and dynamics. The unexpected continuation of melodies by the voices, combined with shifted rhythms, engages the audience's attention until the last bar and results in a rich sound. With its soft and gentle ending, Magnificat as a prayer of Mary exudes, at the same time, a sense of calmness and gentleness.The work is rhythmically and harmonically demanding, which is why the singers need to be steady keeping beat and intonation. Once Magnificat has been rehearsed, it is suitable for concerts as well as Sunday services.

“Friede auf Erden” op. 13 is regarded as Arnold Schoenberg’s last tonal composition and is one of the few choral works of the Second Viennese School. On the same day that he completed his op. 13, Schoenberg made the first sketches for his 2nd String Quartet, a key work in atonal music. Although Schoenberg later orchestrated “Friede auf Erden”, he intended the piece to be performed unaccompanied.
To help rehearsing the work, this choral score contains the piano transcription made by Anton Webern for use in rehearsals for the planned first performance. The text for op. 13 is a secular Christmas poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. At the time of its composition (1907), Schoenberg thought the vision of a “reine Harmonie unter Menschen” (pure harmony amongst people) described in the poem was conceivable, but he later distanced himself from this idea. What remained is a composition of great artistic power and depth – a real showpiece for ambitious choirs!. Score available separately - see item CA.7070100.
