Divisi a cappella writing, with subtle shifts in dynamics and tempi, invites singers to new heights of artistry in this serene setting of Dona nobis pacem and its equivalent English words. Cluster chords, soaring melodies, expressive nuances, and rhapsodic phrases emerge from what begins and ends in utter tranquility. Destined to become a staple of the choral repertoire.

Choir (SATB choir)

SKU: AP.48897

Arranged by Victor C Johnson. Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Alfred Choral Designs. Carol Arrangement; Christmas; Multicultural; Sacred; Traditional; World. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Alfred Music #00-48897. Published by Alfred Music (AP.48897).

UPC: 038081562216. English. Traditional Spanish Carol.

Victor's arrangement of this gentle nativity carol from Spain is sung entirely in the original language (a pronunciation and translation are included). This sensitive treatment captures the lullaby mood and adds a light rhythmic undercurrent in moderate 3/4 time. The tonality shifts seamlessly between D minor and D major to reflect a text that moves from quieting the baby to a rushing fountain and singing birds. While the words do return, no two verses are set in the same manner, creating an ever-evolving arrangement. Piano fingers dance over the keys with triplet turns and easily grasp the bigger chords in the supportive and stylistic accompaniment. A nice contrast on holiday programs.

Choral SATB choir

SKU: PR.312419060

Composed by Adolphus Hailstork. Performance Score. Duration 6 minutes. Theodore Presser Company #312-41906. Published by Theodore Presser Company (PR.312419060).

ISBN 9781491137611. UPC: 680160691067. English. Psalm 91.

Hailstork’s setting of Psalm 91 is an artistic expression featuring passages for Solo Soprano and Solo Baritone in relief to the many textures of the choir. While beautiful counterpoint permeates much of the work, the words “He is my refuge, my refuge and fortress” conspicuously recur in rock-solid block chords, representing the meaning of the Psalm.

SATB choir (div)

SKU: CA.965900

Composed by Giacomo Mezzalira. Edited by Stefan Schuck. Contemporary Choir Music. Sacred vocal music, Feasts of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Hymns in praise of the Virgin Mary. Full score. 8 pages. Duration 8 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 09.659/00. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.965900).

ISBN 9790007165901. Text language: Latin.

Mezzalira places his worked entirely in the tradition of Catholic church music: Gregorian elements are associated likewise with Palestrina's counterpoint and Bruckner's sonorous expansin. Thoroughly in the tradition of the motet, the Memorare is structured in four sections, each in accordance with their respective texts. This large structured composition begins in C minor from the depths of the men's voices, building to a song of lamentation which increases to an harmonically enriched E flat major passage on the words virgo maria. In the second section, harmonically in A flat major, Mezzalira places the upper and lower voices in a double choir opposed to each other in block-like manner in order to develop resonating cantilenas in the third part, which is in F major. After a very simple, tender four-part setting of a hymn the composition ends with an Amen with large modally enriched chords in D major.
