�??Hail! bright Cecilia, hail to thee. Great patroness of us and harmony!�?� �?? this exclamation opens the final chorus of Henry Purcell�??s eponymous Ode to St. Cecilia from 1692. A paean to the power of music, the work is one of the undoubted masterpieces of English choral odes of that time. A resolution of the Musical Society of London in 1683 launched the great tradition of annual celebrations for St. Cecilia�??s Day (November 22), featuring a church service followed by performances of specially composed music. Over the years, Purcell wrote several odes for the occasion, of which this example from 1692 is one of the most popular. Four decades later, Handel would also contribute to the celebrations with his Alexander�??s Feast, HWV 75 (Carus 55.075), and his Ode for St. Cecilia�??s Day, HWV 76 (Carus 55.076).Purcell�? ?s magnificent music, which features a huge range of tonal color and form, offers delightful parts for a variety of solo, ensemble, and choral settings. With its richly expressive palette, the Ode to St. Cecilia is an extremely rewarding work by the �??Orpheus Britannicus�?�, as Purcell was admiringly called by contemporaries.- Festive, rousing ode to music- Highlight of the choral ode genre in the 17th century

Composed by Robert Schumann. Edited by Hansjörg Ewert. Carus digital: Extra digital products. Full Score. Composed 1852. Op. 147. Duration 40 minutes. Carus Verlag #4068700. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.4068700).

ISBN 9790007239701. Key: C minor. Latin.

A mass setting by Robert Schumann? This is still likely to cause surprise among audiences �?? after all, Schumann is not generally viewed as a sacred composer. Indeed, his little-known late work, the Missa sacra, Op. 147, is a discovery not just for listeners but often for the performers themselves. The mass combines an acute fascination with sacred liturgy typical of Schumann�??s time with the pragmatism of its intended use by a local choral society. The composer employs his considerable skills to create a captivating and varied score that is almost ethereal in the Kyrie, leading to passages of an intimate and lyrical piano that alternate with fortissimo for words of praise, while always displaying the utmost sensitivity and a delight in dissonance. The composer declared his setting to be �??fashioned with great love�?�. The demanding orchestral mass can be realized with limited means. The solo parts can be filled from the choir. The work, which the composer himself did not have published, is here reissued on the basis of Schumann�??s partial autograph score. Carus has also produced an arrangement of the work for choir and organ, enabling performances without orchestra in smaller venues (Carus 40.687/45).
