Magnificat Joe Duddell et Nunc Dimtis a été commandée par le Festival Presteigne de musique et des arts avec un financement de Kevin Jones et Laura Woodside-Jones et a reçu sa première représentation par la Chorale de Royal Holloway menée par Rupert Gough au Festival 2011 Presteigne. Duddell a reconnu dans le passé que tout composer un morceau de musique, des problèmes surgissent qui nécessitent des solutions et ce nouveau contexte de la 'Mag and Nunc' n'est pas différent. Le principal défi pour un compositeur qui est ouvertement agnostique est le poids historique derrière le texte liturgique, mais en s'inspirant à la fois musicale et philosophique de compositeurs tels que Holst et Tippett, réglage Duddell est une joyeuse et exaltante.Ouverture avec des harmonies soutenues saturés ouverts 4ths sondes et 5tes, la musique a tôt fait de rapides passages qui chase un de l'autre. L'organe ajoute à la syncope relativement droites rythmes vocaux et à tout autre moment textures plus denses souligne rythmiques. L'oeuvre est dédiée à George Vass. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Par LAURIDSEN MORTEN. O Come, Let Us Sing Unto The Lord was written for Stephen Layton and Polyphony by Morten Lauridsen. Purchase the sheet music for unaccompanied SATB chorus. This setting has been recorded on Lauridsen: Nocturnes (Hyperion, CDA 67580). In speaking of Lauridsen in his book Choral Music in the Twentieth Century, the author Nick Strimple says of him, 'he is the only American composer in history who can be called mystic, (whose) probing, serene work contains all the elusive and indefinable ingredient which leaves the impression that all questions have been answered. . . From 1993 Lauridsen's music rapidly increased in international popularity, and by the centuy's end he hadeclipsed Tandall Thompson as the most frequently performed American choral composer'./ Feuillet / SATB

Par BRUCKNER ANTON. Anton Bruckner's Te Deum - a high point in the composer's output and one of the most important works of the sacred choral repertoire in the 19th century - is now available in a modern, scholarly edition. The Carus edition draws on both the two sources regarded as important, the autograph score and the first printed edition, with careful consideration given to variant readings. And so a music text has been prepared which reflects the composer's intentions as closely as possible. Great emphasis has been placed on a clear-to-read layout of the full score pages, as well as excellent legibility for the parts, which are available on sale. With current performance practice in mind, the clarinet parts are notated in B flat instead of A, corresponding with the first printed edition. The vocal score has been newly prepared to reflect current practical requirements. As an economical alternative, a chorus score is available. Bruckner's Te Deum is also available in carus music, the choir app. The app contains the music and a recording, as well as a coach to help with learning each choral part. In preparation: arrangement of the Te Deum for soli, choir, brass quintet and organ./ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte (SATB) et Orchestre

In Bright Mass With Canons, the canonical motifs are present right from the beginning and carry through almost every bar of the work.There are echoes of early English Choral writing and abstracted sections with flurries of sound interspersed with more Choral writing, all in the most modern idioms.Contemporary American composer Nico Muhly is a prolific writer and arranger who, at 32, is the youngest composer ever to have been commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera in New York. His oeuvre includes two operas, and many solo pieces and works for small ensemble, Orchestra, and Chorus, and he has collaborated with artists such as Philip Glass, Björk and Sigur Rós. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Par BRAHMS JOHANNES. This new edition of Johannes Brahms?s Schicksalslied, op. 54 for mixed choir and orchestra is a modern Urtext edition of the score based on current editorial principles. It is based not only on the composer?s personal copy of the first edition as the primary source, but also on the engraving manuscript which was long thought to have been lost. Thus the composer?s handwritten corrections made in this manuscript could be incorporated in the new edition, as well as a revision in this bilingual edition of the English translation of Friedrich Hölderlin?s dramatic poem. With this work Brahms created a very personal interpretation on the theme of fate in a timless piece of music thatwill not fail to impress in concert hall or church. / Date parution : 2023-06-02/ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte SATB et Piano
