Mixed choir

SKU: FG.55011-356-5

Composed by Matthew (sov) Whittall. Score. Fennica Gehrman #55011-356-5. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55011-356-5).

ISBN 9790550113565.

Huro n Carol ('Twas the Moon of Wintertime) is perhaps the oldest Canadian song. It was written ca. 1642 by Jean de Brebeuf, a Jesuit missionary at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons. The original words were in Huron language, but Whittall uses the English translation from 1926. The song's melody is based on a traditional French folk song Une Jeune Pucelle. Whittall's arrangement is done for Audite choir in 2013. It is a skillful arrangement, bringing out the best qualities of the original melody.

SSB choir, 2 violin, basso continuo

SKU: CA.2102005

Composed by Marc-Antoine Charpentier. Edited by Inge Forst. French Sacred Music. Sacred vocal music, Cantatas, New year, Christmas. Choral Score. H 318. Duration 5 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 21.020/05. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.2102005).

ISBN 9790007128623. Language: Latin.

Marc-Antoine Charpentier not only originated the Eurovision Melody, rather he also made an important contribution to French sacred music from the baroque with his oratorios, motets and cantatas. The four cantatas for the season of Christmas (CV 21.019-21.022) are now published in first editions. The Latin texts of these works for Christmas, the New Year, Epiphany, and the Purification are based on the accounts of the Gospels, which are paraphrased in the form of poetic texts. As in Charpentier's extensive Histoires sacrees, the musical structure is oratorical, with a part for the evangelist and texts spoken directly by biblical personages and groups of people (angels, Herodes, shepherds, wise men). In each work the vocal scoring includes two sopranos and a bass (those passages where a number of voices sing together can be performed either by soloists or by a choir). With this uniform scoring it would be meaningful to perform these works as a cycle, in the manner of a small Christmas oratorio. Score available separately - see item CA.2102000.
