Volume II of the collected edition of the choral works of Veress contains seven Hungarian folksong cycles or cantatas, a choral poem in Hungarian and a choral cycle in English. In his first creative period (1929-1939), which he spent in Hungary, Sándor Veress's direct involvement in Hungarian folk music research played a decisive part: his folksong experience gained through personal collecting work found expression in his first period of composition for mixed choir. In the course of the 1960s, after his emigration, he returned on two occasions to the a cappella mixed choir genre: in 1962 he wrote a piece for mixed choir to mark the 60th birthday of the great Hungarian poet GyulaIllyés (Óda Európához - Ode to Europe, based on the poem by Illyés), and in 1967, at the request of the Australian Radio Company, he composed for the 'Adelaide Singers' chamber choir Songs of the Seasons, a seven-movement madrigal cycle making exceptional demands on the performers, to verses by the Australian poet Christopher Brennan (1870-1932).

Der zweite Band der gesammelten Ausgabe der Chorwerke von Sándor Veress umfasst sieben ungarische Volkslied-Zyklen, bzw. Kantaten, ein Chorpoem in ungarischer Sprache und einen englischen Chorzyklus. In der ersten Schaffensperiode seines Lebens (1929-1939), die er in Ungarn verbrachte, nimmt sein unmittelbarer Kontakt zur ungarischen Volksmusikforschung eine entscheidende Rolle ein: Das Volkslied-Erlebnis seiner persönlichen Sammeltätigkeit kam in der ersten Periode seiner Kompositionen für gemischten Chor unmittelbar zur Geltung. In der Emigration, während der sechziger Jahre, kehrte er noch zweimal zur Gattung gemischter Chor a cappella zurück: 1962 komponierte ereinen gemischten Chor zum 60. Geburtstag des großen ungarischen Dichters Gyula Illyés (nach einem Gedicht von Illyés) unter dem Titel Ode an Europa. 1967 schrieb er im Auftrag der Australischen Rundfunkgesellschaft, für den Kammerchor 'Adelaide Singers' einen siebensätzigen Madrigalzyklus (Songs of the Seasons).

The Missa latina is a complete setting of the Latin Mass for solo soprano, large mixed choir (SATB divisi as well as soloists from the choir) and a band consisting of violin, bandoneon (accordion), piano, double bass, drums and percussion. The word latina not only refers to the Latin text, but also to the musical style which makes use of Latin-American rhythms. Thus elements from Argentinian tangos stand side by side with Caribbean rhythms and Latin jazz with enough space provided for instrumental improvisations.

Orchestra (Solo S, Coro SATB (mit Stimmteilungen), Alt-Sax/ Fl (1 Bläser), 2 Vl, Pfte, Cb, Perc (3 Spieler: Drum Set, Congas, Claves, Güiro, Maracas, Shaker)) - Grade 4

SKU: CA.2720605

Composed by Bobbi Fischer. Choral Score. Composed 2017. Duration 33 minutes. Carus Verlag #2720605. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.2720605).

The Magnificat was commissioned in 2017 by the Landesakademie für die musizierende Jugend in Baden-Württemberg for the Choir of the International Choir Festival C.H.O.I.R. In this setting of the hymn of praise from St Luke’s gospel, we hear the solo soprano as the voice of Mary. The work draws on the wealth of Afro-Caribbean rhythms. The first movement gives a hymn-like expression to the message of the text with the tremendous energy of the Cuban salsa. There are many examples of the relationship between word and music throughout the work. An example of this is the passage Deposuit potentes (“He hath put down the mighty from their seat and hath exalted the humble and meek”). In this passage, a 9-part canon vividly portrays the words et exaltavit and deposuit through chromatic passagework in contrary motion extending over an octave.

With this work composer Bobbi Fischer has created a musical bridge between Europe and South America as well as stylistic links to his Missa latina (Carus 28.007). The rhythm group (piano, bass, drums, and percussion) is identical; new instrumental colors from the Latin world are added with two obbligato violins and one reedplayer (alto saxophone/flute) – in the place of the bandoneon and violin used in the Missa latina.

The Magnificat is also available on CD (Carus 83.483). Score available separately - see item CA.2720600.

As in all cantatas for St. Michael the chorale cantata Lord God, we praise thee all of us BWV 130 from 1724 is a magnificent composition. Not only in the opening chorus and the final chorale do the three trumpets and timpani play a role, but the first aria In hell the serpent, hot with hate is even accompanied solely by trumpets, timpani and continuo. The second aria, Thou, of cherubim the master, brings an unexpected contrast in which, besides the tenor and continuo, on a solo flute is heard. The original set of parts were separated from each other in the 19th century and today are scattered throughout the world. For the first time, some of the parts were taken into consideration in preparing this edition. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.3113000.

UPC: 763628253417. John Parker. Luke 2:8-16.

Original anthem From John Parker & Joel Raney, here is a light-hearted, 2-part mixed original, telling the story of the nativity in a jazzy style that hings at the Caribbean. At the mid-point, a gentle, unison treatment of What Child Is This appears to remind us of the simplicity of the moment. The colorful accompaniment with its distinctly Middle Eastern flavor, calls us to mind a journey through the desert to witness the birth of the King. . . where a stable light shines.
