Par BRUCKNER ANTON. Bruckner?s mighty Mass in F minor is one of his most significant creations and one of the great 19th-century choral works. The composer uniquely succeeds in exploring faith through the lens of music. In doing so, he ventures into extreme forms of expression, which caused some disgruntlement among the musicians at rehearsals for the premiere in November 1868. In subsequent years, however, the work has gradually become more accepted, and today presents a highly appealing challenge to advanced choirs. The Carus edition presents the Mass in F minor as the final 1893 version based on the autograph and the surviving copies from the copyist. As an Urtext edition it follows the latest scholarly standards ready for the Bruckner anniversary year in 2024! / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Répertoire / Solistes [SATB], Double Choir et Piano

Light and celebratory, this joyous anthem uses rhythmic, ostinato-like vocal lines to support the melodic theme. A sustained middle section provides contrast, capturing the majesty and mystery of God. Time signature changes and interesting harmonic writing make this a good challenge for more advanced choirs. / Choeur Mixte (SATB)

Korean composer Hyo-Won Woo uses physical space, lighting and multiple choirs to create music that stretches the boundaries of traditional choral music. Incredibly intense and dramatic, this will be a show-stopper for advanced choirs. / Choeur Mixte (SATB)

For the setting of Lux Aurumque, the composer chose the Latin translation of an Edward Esch poem, enhancing the elegant simplicity of this new work. The tight harmonies will need to be carefully balanced by a well trained a cappella choir. Suitable for an advanced high school choir and beyond. Moderately difficult. / Choeur SATB A Cappella

Par BERIO LUCIANO. From Berio's program notes: 'In one episode, namely Il Campo (The Field), from my azione musicale Cronaca del Luogo, there is a virtual love duet. Two voices and several instruments 'fall in love' and follow one another in a constantly renewing relationship. As we all know, in true polyphony each voice contributes to the whole yet retains its own identity, if not complete autonomy. In Altra voce I have liberated one voice (mezzo-soprano) and one instrument (alto flute) from the whole and developed their respective autonomies and harmonic premises by, among other means, using live electronics.' Now published in score and parts, with complete and detailed technical instructions for electronics. For advanced performers./ Répertoire / Flûte Alto, Mezzo-Soprano et Live Electronics

Par POULENC FRANCIS. Poulenc 's song cycle, Chansons Gaillardes was composed in 1925-1926 during the post-war euphoria. The cycle is essential to aspiring, advanced Baritones. Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was a highly prolific composer, and remains popular to this day. Chansons Gaillardes was composed towards the beginning of the composer's career for Baritone Pierre Bernac. At the first performance, Poulenc himself played the piano and the song cycle was immediately a hit. Chansons Gaillardes is made up of eight songs which alternate between lively and slow tempos; 1) TheFickle Mistress, 2) Drinking Song, 3) Madrigal, 4) Summoning the Fates, 5) Bacchanalian Couplets, 6) The Offering, 7) The Beautiful Youth, and 8) Serenade. As a song cycle with much variation, Poulenc 's Chansons Gaillardes is an exciting addition to the Baritone repertoire./ Répertoire / Baryton et Piano
