English/German. Text:
Newman, John
Henry. This is the
best of me, wrote Edward
Elgar after the final
measure of his Dream of
Gerontius. Premiered in
1900, in Great Britain
the work has long been a
standard work in the
repertoire of large
oratorio choirs. Elgar's
moving, poetic setting of
the eponymous poem by
Cardinal John Henry
Newman is about a dying
man and his journey
beyond death to God.
Before the eyes of the
listeners, a musical
image of the soul is
created which flies past
mocking demons to God
with its protecting angel
at its side, is allowed
to look at God briefly,
then faces the purgatory
confident and comforted.
The work is a real rarity
in the history of
oratorio, and for large
choirs it is a thrilling
alternative to the
established repertoire of
Requiem settings. Its
popularity is thanks to
the suggestive, often
sensuous power of the
music, the great choral
scenes of the demons and
the angels, and the three
impressive solo
parts.All
previous editions were
reprints based on the
historic first printed
materials, which are
inconsistent. By
contrast, Carus has
produced a modern,
newly-engraved edition,
compatible in all
sections, which takes all
the sources into
consideration and
evaluates the autograph
manuscript in detail. For
this edition the complete
orchestral material is
available on sale, and
the vocal score and full
score contain both
English and German
singing texts. The full
score is also available

Romantic choral music,
and a standard work in

German/English. Men
delssohn's St. Paul with
just seven instead of the
usual 18 wind
instruments? Thanks to
this arrangement for
chamber orchestra, a
performance with smaller
forces is now possible,
and presents an
attractive alternative
for performing
Mendelssohn's first
oratorio - not only in
times of Corona. For it
is often considerations
of space, a limited
budget, or the size of
the chorus which call for
flexibility in
scoring. The
arrangement is based on
the Carus Urtext edition.
By reducing the symphonic
wind and brass in
particular, the volume of
sound is more restrained,
but nevertheless the
symphonic character and a
wide dynamic range are
retained. All the vocal
parts (soloists and
chorus) are identical
with the original
version, so that the
vocal scores, choral
scores, and practice aids
of the existing Carus
edition can still be
used.
Major
oratorio can also be
performed by smaller
choirs Wind and brass
parts of the original
version reduced to just
seven single instruments
vocal scores and
choral scores from the
original version can be
used carus plus: the
work (original version)
is available in carus
music, the Choir Coach,
and in the Carus Choir
Coach (Audio only)
