Imagi ne almost a thousand voices raised in glorious harmony, singing songs of the faith and accompanied by a grand church band and orchestra, as together they offer their adoration and worship to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

That is exactly what has happened each and every year for the past decade or more at the annual Choral Festival in Spartanburg S. C., sponsored by our friends at Christian Supply. Each year, Choral Festival has commissioned one of the church's favorite choral arrangers and personalities, Marty Parks, to arrange The Opener – a medley of hymns, praise choruses, worship songs, and gospel favorites blended together in an opening presentation that gives the event its signature launch every year! Having long been a favorite element of the conference year after year, many have asked, Where can I get those arrangements for my church? or Are those arrangements available for my choir?.

Well, your wait is over! Word Music & Church Resources is excited to present CHORAL FESTIVAL FAVORITES, created, arranged and orchestrated by Marty Parks! We have joined hands with Marty and Christian Supply to bring you this highly-anticipated book of blended medleys for your choir and congregation. Taking the same arrangements created for Choral Festival, Marty has adapted them for use on Sundays with your choir, band, and orchestra, while leaving plenty of room and encouragement for your congregation to join in and sing along! We also offer a powerful DVD accompaniment and performance track to support and enhance your presentation of these proven medleys on Sunday mornings!

Choral Festival Favorites...direct to your choir from the pen of Marty Parks and the platform of one of the most influential choral music conferences over the past 25 years, bringing all the parts and pieces together in one new, ministry-focused choral project that will equip your church for the ministry of music and worship worldwide!

For a long time after Romanticism had come to the fore, it was generally agreed that Brahms somehow did not get it: History and Progress - it was thought - were proceeding along one clear path and Brahms - who was composing sonatas and symphonies instead of nocturnes and symphonic poems - had taken the wrong way. Almost one century later, Schonberg wrote an essay, Brahms, der Fortschrittliche (Brahms, the progressive), in which he explained that it wasn't like that at all.Fully assuming the risk to appear somehow irreverent, I have to confess: Over the years, I came to the conclusion that the present - and the future - can be created only by loving the past. As Brahms had shown us, it is only by accepting the challenge of taking our heritage into our own hands, that we can create something new. We cannot avoid engaging with the past. Therefore, starting with my Sinfonia n. 1, I began to flirt with such a strong and effective musical structure like the sonata form. I re-read and freely transformed it, because it is a sturdy and resilient structure, but also a theatrical and colorful one. For me, it is a happy structure. And I think that today more than ever we need something like this: We need to find places - even imaginary ones - where we can give happiness a form of its own.Nicola Campogrande, December 2020

Score available: KP00247 Ruders writes: Quartet No. 3 Motet was written in 1979, commissioned by the Lerchenborg music-week of 1979 during which it was first performed by Quatuor Bernede. This short one-movement quartet is a kind of modernization of the 14th century French motets, a cadeau to this weird and fantastic music whose abstract and almost deprecatory, introvert expression appears unaccountably modern and incredibly ancient at the same time. Motet is a sober, cool treatise on rhythm and statics, depicted in a Gothic, crypt-like atmosphere. The almost completely non-vibrato movement is suggestive of boys' choir, monks' processions, and the piercing sound of musical glasses. An ancient world is reborn and becomes the world of today.

The Dresden Kreuzkantor Gottfried August Homilius belongs to the composers whose works have been rediscovered in recent years. Previously almost forgotten, today he is rightly attracting increasing attention. Celebrated by his contemporaries to be accepted as the best church composer, his works are disseminated in countless copies and also frequently in arrangements. The complete, surviving works were examined for this first, exhaustive thematic catalog of the works of Gottfried August Homilius. Not only every work, but also every individual movement is provided with a music incipit and information concerning scoring, and different versions of a work or surviving versions are presented, as well as a list of all known manuscripts, editions, libretti, new editions and, whenever possible, arranged chronologically and geographically. Thus not only a reliable catalog of the works of the Dresden Kreuzkantor is presented here, but also a good deal on church music tradition and church history in the second half of the 18th century is examined and placed in perspective. The volume includes various tables and indexes which amplify the contents of the catalog and in addition important kantors and copyists from Homilius's era are presented in a lexical appendix.
