Cantata for the 3rd day of Christmas. Composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Edited by Tobias Rimek. Arranged by Paul Horn. This edition: urtext. Stuttgart Urtext Edition: Bach vocal. Sacred vocal music, Christmas. Choral Score. Composed 1724. BWV 133. 4 pages. Duration 20 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 31.133/05. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.3113305).

The cantata Ich freue mich in dir was first performed during Bach's second year as Thomaskantor, on the 3rd day of Christmas, and belongs to the so-called annual cycle of chorale cantatas. Here the focus of the composition is the hymn of the same name by Philipp Ziegler, in which the first and final strophes were adopted, word for word, in the first and sixth movements of the cantata. The soprano, which carries the chorale, is supported by the conrnett (Zink), which already at this time had become a seldom-used instrument. The joyful, lively choral movement with instrumental interludes directly follows the first aria, and begins with a marked, ascending motive at the word Getrost! (safely). The oboes d'amore which accompany the alto lend the movement a special color. In the second aria (for soprano), Bach again shows himself to be the master of text interpretation. The words Wie lieblich klingt es in den Ohren are emphasized in an exchange between open strings and sixteenth note figures. Score available separately - see item CA.3113300.

Hampton produced a small, but significant body of hymn tunes that expanded the notion of what a hymn tune and its accompaniment could be. Melodic sequences and an accompaniment cast in trio sonata form were common compositional devices he employed, both are found in the tune MacDOUGALL. is set for two mixed voices (or equal voices, if desired) is taken from e Calvin Hampton Hymnary, G-2339. In the composer’s notes from that collection, Hampton suggests a tempo of quarter note = 76, saying: “the accompaniment can be played by hands alone, omitting the vocal line [found in the keyboard treble clef]. The accompaniment figure could be played on the guitar, piano, or harpsichord.” Listen to the recording and follow along with the score in this preview video:  .

French.

French composer and teacher, Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) was a prolific composer of the 20th century as a member of 'Les Six'. His compositions remain highly regarded, Jacob's Dreams being no exception. Milhaud's compositions areinfluenced by jazz and polytonality, as exemplified in Jacob's Dreams. Composed in 1949, Jacob's Dreams is a dance suite, written for Oboe, Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass. It is an alternative, exciting suite, based on thedreams of Jacob in the Bible and made up of five movements - 1) Jacob's Pillow, 2) The first dream (the angel's ladder), 3) Prophecy, 4) Second dream (fight with the dark angel and benediction), and 5) Israel (Hymn). Milhaud makesuse of variation in articulation, complex rhythms, chromaticism, accidentals, harmonics, altering tempos, variation in dynamics and a wide tessitura, amongst other aspects. Milhaud's Jacob's Dream is essential to all advancedensembles seeking modern and exciting repertoire.

ISBN 9790007163983.

The supreme and most individual of all the song motets of the entire Late Renaissance period: this is Friedrich Blume's evaluation of Lechner's choral music. The focus of this choir book is on Leonhard Lechner's compositions in the German language. With them, he realized one of the concepts of the Reformation which went hand in hand with Martin Luther's translation of the Bible: the German-language chorale and the German-language motet. Lechner followed the ideals of the Reformation more consciously than most composers; indeed, he embodied their music-dramatic perceptions. With his conception of word and sound, he concentrated on furthering the development of the German song towards a freer strophic song which leads to a unique compaction of the words.

Carl Friedrich Christian Fasch's Mass in 16 parts is remarkable for more than its unusual scoring. Inspired by the Italian church music style of Orazio Benevoli, it was composed in 1783 for the Berliner Sing-Akademie, and revised by Fasch several times throughout his life in order to adapt the score to the vocal capabilities of his ensemble. The composer destroyed all earlier compositions, which probably contributed to the legendary fame which this mass has enjoyed since the 19th century. The mass was, however, only published in 1839 - around four decades after Fasch's death. The present edition is based on the version contained in the first printed edition. In addition to modern music notation, extensive performance materials (two choral scores, separate organ part) facilitate the rehearsal of this challenging work. Score available separately - see item CA.2708300.
