Brimming with ancient Celtic flavor, Stars of Glory radiates the promise of the light of God’s salvation, fulfilled in the birth of Jesus Christ. Tom Fettke and Thomas Grassi have arranged a brilliant mix of eleven traditional carols for SATB choir, duet, optional solo, child’s solo, and women’s trio. Variously tender, introspective, joyous, and infectious, the selections in this work are connected by the common thread of their Celtic highlights, while Ken Bible’s readings beautifully illuminate the central theme—Jesus Christ, the Bright and Morning Star. Orchestration by Michael Lawrence for 2 Fl, Ob, 2 Cl, Bsn (sub Bass Cl), 2 Hn (sub 2 A Sax), 3 Tpt, 2 Tbn (sub 2 T Sax), Tuba, Perc, Timp, Harp, Pno, 2 Vln, Vla, Cello, Bass, Digital Strings.

ISBN 9790006523375. 32.9 x 23.9 cm inches. Text Language: French/German. Preface: Soury, Thomas. Louis de Cahusac.
Rameau's “Les Fêtes de l'Hymen et de l'Amour” was long considered second-rate because its première was associated with a political event. Yet this ballet abounds in novel dramaturgical effects that foreshadow his later operas, such as “Zaïs”, “Zoroastre” and “Les Borades”. Working together with his librettist Cahusac, Rameau sought to weave the dance numbers, choruses and stage machinery more tightly into the main plot. He also experimented with stylistic devices unique to this work, the most famous being unquestionably the scene in which the Nile overflows its banks (an impressive ten-voice double chorus with solo voices and orchestra) and the sextet from “Aruris”, a scoring found nowhere else in his uvre.For the first time, this scholarly-critical edition of “Les Fêtes de l'Hymen et de l'Amour” presents a reference version of the work that is based on all the major sources for both the libretto and the music, including two recent musical discoveries. As most of the performance material for the première has vanished, our edition is based on the version prepared for the Acadmie Royale de Musique in 1748.
