Female choir (SSAA) a cappella - intermediate

SKU: HL.49043921

Composed by Johannes Eccard. This edition: Folding. Sheet music. Choral. Octavo. 4 pages. Schott Music #C56106. Published by Schott Music (HL.49043921).

ISBN 9790001197427. German.

The a cappella choral setting Der Tag, der ist so freudenreich for four-part women's choir written by the 1553-born composer Johannes Eccard from Muhlhausen in Thuringia is, indeed, a real pleasure. The German-language text is borrowed from an old Latin Christmas carol, singing of the miracle of Nativity in two verses. Eccard manages, in an engaging manner, to musically express the joyous atmosphere of this poem. All four female voices (SSAA) join imitatively in the angelic chant of joy one after the other, while central words like 'freudenreich' [joyful], 'Himmelreich' [kingdom of heaven], 'Jungfrau' [virgin] or 'Mutter' [mother] are particularly embellished. This is exhilarating and easy-to-perform utility music for Christmas church services.

SSAA choir, piano

Hymn for Pentecost. Composed by Ko Matsushita. Edited by Stefan Schuck. Contemporary Choir Music. Sacred vocal music, Whitsun. Full score. 12 pages. Duration 5 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 09.662/00. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.966200).

ISBN 9790007167677. Language: Latin.

Matsushita's setting of a hymn for Pentecost is a dialog between women's choir and piano: while the choir develops its melodies from the Gregorian hymn, the piano provides a counterpoint with the minimalistic sounds of fourth and fifths, together with short independent motives related to the text of the hymn. Corresponding to the chorale, the meter changes continually, as if floating. The choir is treated homophonically throughout and, in preparation for the climax of the piece it is briefly divided into six parts at the words pacemque dones protinus (true peace bring unto us). One again Matsushita proves himself a master of economy in his use of compositional means; thus his works of new church music are appealing, effective, and they express humility.
