Matthew Owens' St Matthew Passion for soloists SATB and Organ. Written for the Choir of Wells Cathedral of which Matthew Owens is Organist and Master of the Choristers this setting of the St Matthew Passion is ideally suited to liturgical performance during Holy Week. The principal role of the Evangelist is taken by a baritone soloist who narrates the story of Christ's trial and Crucifixion in unaccompanied chant. The other smaller solo roles of Judas (Tenor) Pilate (Tenor) Jesus (Bass) and Pilate's wife (Alto) continue in the same vein with four-part choral interspersions from the crowds soldiers and priests providing acontrast in texture. The hymn 'When I survey the wondrous cross' set to the Rockingham hymn tune appears twice throughout the work and the congregation are encouraged to join in on both occasions. The simple organ part supports the voices for the hymn and may also optionally double the choir during the narrative.

aus: Psalmi Vespertini. Par MAZZOCCHI VIRGILIO. During his tenure under Pope Urban VIII Virgilio Mazzocchi was among the most renowned musicians of Rome. He directed the Cappella Giulia in St. Peters Basilica for 17 years. He also organized the musical activities at the court of the Pope’s influential nephew, Francesco Barberini. The Psalmi Vespertini, Mazzocchi’s most important sacred work, were published two years after his death. This collection contains two complete vesper cycles for double choir with a basso continuo accompaniment. At the conclusion of the first vesper cycle, in the predominately festive setting of the Magnificat, Mazzocchi displays his artistry in the old and new styles by combining contrapuntal choralsections with concertante passages. The new Carus edition of this work presents a most significant and impressive document of Roman church music in the first half of the 17th century. / Mottet / Répertoire / Solistes et Choeur SATB/SATB et Basse Continue
