ThePetite Messe solennelleis the finest work of Rossini's late years. He composed it between 1863 and 1864 at the age of 71 as a commission for Countess Louise Pillet -Will for the consecration of her private chapel, where the work received its first performance in March 1864. Together with theStabat mater, the mass is one of the composer's mostimportant sacred works.The unusual instrumentation with two pianos and harmonium is entirely in keeping with the Neapolitan keyboard tradition of the 18th century which was cultivated in France in Rossini's day. It forms a distinct contrast to the style of large-scale sacred compositions as written by, for example, Liszt and Bruckner. Rossini explained that he wrote the later orchestral version of the work dating from 1867 out of concern that if he did not do this, other composers might orchestrate the mass too heavily in later arrangements.- Choral score based on the Urtext of the seriesWorks of Gioachino Rossini- Supplements the already existing material available to this work

UPC: 785147875109. English. Text by Rory Cooney.
While the tune is based on a traditional Czech carol, this is one of Rory Cooney’s most powerful original texts. The piece would make a stunning Communion meditation, evoking images of joy at the infant Savior’s birth, while foreshadowing his sacrifice so that we might eat of the Living Bread. The piano provides support for the choral parts, but the piece may be sung a cappella, or, if circumstances allow, the use of the optional string quartet will add to the warmth expressed in the words and harmony of the singers. String Quartet or Keyboard accompaniment.

With a text based on Confessions of St. Augustine, this song of comfort extols the surety of God’s love for us. Appropriate for times of reflection or meditation, this moving work sings of the peace found when we allow our restless hearts to find a home in God. While effective with piano and choir alone, the addition of string quartet, flute, and horn in F adds depth and enhances the legato line of the melody. For cantor or soloist. Instrument parts are optional.

English. Text Source: Ps. 118, ref., Lectionary for Mass, vss., The Abbey Psalms and Canticles Scripture: Psalm 118.
This setting of Psalm 118 is centered around two themes, the hymn tune PUER NOBIS as the refrain and A Trumpett Minnuett by Jeremiah Clarke, which serves for a ritornello, the returning musical theme that acts as an interlude between the refrain and the verses. It can be performed with the full complement of instruments, or with solo trumpet, with strings, or with organ alone.

Sonatina is based on a simple piano piece by James Hook, a composer from the Classical period. Carl Strommen has set and expanded this delightful piano piece to showcase the full resources of the string orchestra. It also contains a nice B section that shifts to a minor key for added interest.A contemporary, as well as friend, of Clementi and Haydn, James Hook (1746–1827) was born in Norwich, England. Among his notable works are oratorios (The Ascension, being the most well known), a series of serious and comic operas, chamber and keyboard music. Originally one of Hook’s piano pieces, Sonatina is transcribed here for strings.Sonatina should be played as marked on the original keyboard version: “Giocoso†( lightly, humorously). The minor section at m. 25 may be played a bit “darker†but should return to “Giocoso†at m. 41. An optional violin 1 solo is offered at m. 34.
