of Basle by Bernhard
Wyss.

Hawkes
Difficulty
level: 4 (for
chorus)
Britten's
genius lifts this work
above being just a worthy
celebration of the 500th
anniversary of the
foundation of Basle
University. It is
tongue-in-cheek and
mockingly non-academic
while referring all the
time to academic musical
forms and formulae. It is
written in two parts
(everything is in the
statutory Latin including
the titles of the parts -
Pars I and Pars II). The
titles of the movements
show Britten's intention
to show off a wide
variety of techniques.
Here are some examples:
Chorale/Alla Rovescio
(the theme is given and
responded to with the
same melody upside
down)/Recitativo/Tema
seriale con fuga/Canone
ed ostinato. There is a
good deal of humour
here.
There are
seven movements in Pars I
and six in Pars II. The
tenor soloist is given
three florid recitatives,
accompanied only by a
piano, which act as
bridges between other
orchestrally accompanied
movements. Of these the
most noteworthy are the
Arioso con canto popolare
for soprano solo with
tenors and basses who hum
a student song; another
terrific Britten scherzo;
and a wonderfully raucous
final pair of movements
(Canon ed ostinato and
Corale con canto) where
Britten seems to be aping
the Vivat Regina! cries
in Parry's I was glad or
encouraging the kind of
noisy 'I'm from the best
university' kind of
student touchline shout.
This has outrageously
high notes for the tenors
(top B) which further
endorse this feeling.
There are real echoes of
the Spring Symphony (see
separate entry) final
movement here which are
further underlined by the
last section of the
Cantata which brings in
the bells, piano, huge
percussion and the
inevitable chorale in
which the choir sings
'that a free academy may
thrive in a free
community, for ever the
ornament and treasure of
illustrious
Basle'.
This may
not be Britten at his
most soul-searching but,
as always, there is
plenty here to enjoy,
especially if the work is
not taken too seriously.
It is a celebratory,
occasional piece and it
could be well taken up by
other academic
establishments
celebrating big
anniversaries. The chorus
parts are not very
difficult, though they do
present challenges for
the choir - not least in
having tenors capable of
those very high notes at
the end. The Tema seriale
con fuga is sinewy and
needs careful tuning. It
also has the subject
regularly given upside
down after its initial
sounding by the basses.
All good
fun.

“O
Sing the Gloriesâ€
is an original work by
Alice Parker, who is
known primarily for her
masterful arrangements. A
festive, unaccompanied
hymn-anthem that begins
each stanza with an
ascending scale
incorporating a
phrygianesque raised
fourth. The seven brief
stanzas are SATB, TB, SA,
SATB, SAT, a quieter
SATBB (with layered
entrances from the lower
voices upward), and a
resounding final stanza
with the tune in the
tenor, while all other
voices freely decorate
around the melody.

John
Tavener 's Coplas ,
composed in 1970, for
unaccompanied SATB Choir.
' Coplas is a short
anthem for voices and
tape. It belongs to a
much larger work called
'Last Rites' which I have
been thinking about for
about a year. It is based
on the mystical idea of
St. John of the Cross
which obsesses me - the
more I live the more I
must die. Hence the
deliberately static
nature of Coplas. In once
sense Coplas is a
prolonged decoration of
the 'et sepultus est'
cadence from the
Crucifixus in Bach's Mass
in B minor. In another
sense I think of it not
so much as my music but a
way of listening to
Bach's music. ' - John
Tavener.

Michael
Larkin's gentle anthem of
comfort is based on
Isaiah 43:1 - 4. The
luscious choral textures
are supported by a
decorative piano
accompaniment, making
this an accessible piece
for choirs of all
abilities. The text
appears in Lutheran
Service Book's
Three-Year Lectionary,
Series C, as the Old
Testament Reading for the
Baptism of Our Lord. The
piece also makes a
wonderful anthem for
baptisms and
confirmations.
Do not be afraid,
for I have redeemed
you. I have
called you by your name,
and you are
Mine. Do not
be afraid, for you are
Mine.
When you pass
through deep waters the
waves will not cover
you. When
you pass through the fire
the flames will not touch
you. The
flames will not touch
you. Do not
be afraid, for I have
redeemed
you. I have
called you by your name,
and you are
Mine. For I
am the Lord your God; you
are precious in My
sight.
I
love you with a perfect
love. I love
you with a perfect love,
a perfect
love.

Two of our
greatest choral artists,
one known for his mastery
with words and the other
for his exquisite musical
compositions, have united
to celebrate the powerful
properties in music.
Healing, unifying,
inspiring, are some of
those attributes. The
piano accompaniment adds
energy and strength to
the piece. There is a
high point when the
single word, music, is
decorated so masterfully,
it is a moment of
expressive genius.
