The Requiem of Gabriel Faure is now available in two versions: in the symphonic version which was completed in 1900 and in a version with small orchestra of 1889. The symphonic version of Gabriel Faure's Requiem, published in 1901, was the product of a 13-year compositional process. Starting from the original five-movement form for strings, harp and organ, the composer wrote two additional movements, one after the other, and expanded the instrumentation in various stages for later performances. The present reconstruction of a version with small orchestra differs from other such attempts in that for the first time it presents the work not in a mixed version, but rather in the unified form from 1889. This is distinguished from the final version both in musical terms, as well as through the fact that it forgoes the use of flutes, clarinets and bassoons, while employing only two horns instead of four. With a critical Report with information about the source situation and the edition, and containing the individual readings (alternative readings, etc.). Since in 1889 the Offertoire was still without the choral section the present edition contains the Offertoire of the final version as appendix. Now available in carus music, the choir app. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.2731100.

Psalm 24. Composed by Rudy T. Borkowski. Advent 4 A. Sacred. Octavo. With guitar chord names. 8 pages. GIA Publications #006289. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-006289).

The straight-to-the-point five-note refrain with four-part choral harmony is an easy learn for your singers and assembly. Rudy always creates ear-catching yet convincing musical twists in his works, as you will hear in this piece. Verses 1 and 2 are slightly syncopated in contrast to the refrain, while verse 3 calls for the choir to hum under the cantor's proclamation as a vocal descant echoes above. The optional final refrain can be performed as a canon at four-, two-, or one-measure intervals. This distinctive ending makes pure physical sense and is fun to sing as well.
