The Good Friday Responsory Tenebrae factae sunt for six-part chorus was commissioned in 2012 for Peking University Student Choir and was premiered at the World Choir Games in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA conducted by Hou Xijin. It is an ambitious work with a fervent intensity. Matsushita sets the two last words of Jesus, Deus meus, ut quid me dereliquisti? [My God, why hast thou forsaken me] and Pater, in manus tuas commendo spiritum meum [Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit] as pained outcries in Stravinskyian harshness, in chords characterized by tritones, as a truly superhuman work of redemption whose Easter message of hope only appears in the last conciliatory F major chord. Although this work lies slightly beyond the upper limit of the musical and vocal technical demands of the Carus Contemporary series, it is well within the abilities of ambitious chamber choirs.

Er macht nicht nur als Braunschweiger Domkantor, Organist und leidenschaftlicher Musik- bzw. Gesangspadagoge von sich reden. Gerd-Peter Munden stellt mit seiner Vertonung des 126. Psalms unter Beweis, dass er auch als Komponist geistlicher (Chor)Musik Meisterhaftes hervorzubringen versteht. Den zur Gattung der Wallfahrtslieder zahlenden Psalm Wenn der Herr die Gefangenen Zions erlosen wird setzt Munden fur sechsstimmigen gemischten Chor (SSATBB) a cappella und verlangt den Ausfuhrenden dabei in nur 70 Takten einiges ab. Haufige Taktwechsel sowie eine reiche (nicht nur) dynamische Ausdruckspalette mit feinsten Abstufungen, die vom dreifachen Pianissimo bis zu dreifachen Fortissimo reicht und ruhige bis sehr lebhafte Passagen umfasst, verleihen diesem 5-minutigen Werk einen hochst ergreifenden Gestus.

A lilting choral accompaniment evokes pizzicato sounds surrounding the tenor melody in verse one. The other verses are set more conventionally but still reflect the goals of our Christmas with The Singers series: that the audience will enjoy the famliarity of the carol but be enchanted by the creativity of the arrangement. Challenging, but masterful in how Matthew Culloton treats the ensemble as a self-sufficient choral idiom. Duration 2:30.

In 1999 a Bronze Age metal disc was found near the city of Nebra (Saxony-Anhalt/Germany), showing astronomical symbols and phenomena. Dated c. 1600 years BC, the so-called “Nebra sky disk†is regarded as the world’s oldest evidence of the astronomical skills of this period and allows us deep insight into the knowledge of the heavens possessed by our ancestors. Wilfried Hiller was inspired by this artefact to compose a work for mixed chorus. Text in German.

A peaceful carol telling the Christmas story of the angels' visit to the shepherds. The simple but still jazz-inspired harmonies, unison sections and attractive melodies make this a very approachable but effective carol.
