Ajoutée par magataganm, 15 Oct 2019 Carl (Karl) Schiedermaier (1835 – 1895) was a German composer, and conductor. Little is known about his life but he was believed to have been a pupil of Ferdinand David. He became a member of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, and in ca. 1850 moved to Weimar. From 1860 he was a teacher and at the suggestion of a Court Kapellmeister - whom he had met in 1866 and organised joint chamber musicand masses. He took up teaching in Munich and retired in 1894. The mass (Latin: missa), a form of sacred musical composition, is a choral composition that sets the invariable portions of the Eucharistic liturgy (principally that of the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, and Lutheranism) to music. Most masses are settings of the liturgy in Latin, the liturgical sacred language of the Catholic Church's Roman liturgy, but there are a significant number written in the languages of non-Catholic countries where vernacular worship has long been the norm. For example, there are many masses (often called "communion services") written in English for the Church of England. Musical masses take their name from the Catholic liturgy called "the mass" as well. Masses can be a cappella, that is, without an independent accompaniment, or they can be accompanied by instrumental obbligatos up to and including a full orchestra. Many masses, especially later ones, were never intended to be performed during the celebration of an actual mass. The missa tota ("full mass") consists of a musical setting of the five sections of the ordinarium as listed below: I. Kyrie: In the Tridentine Mass, the Kyrie is the first sung prayer of the mass ordinary. It is usually (but not always) part of any musical setting of the mass. II. Gloria: The Gloria is a celebratory passage praising God the Father and Christ. III. Credo: The Credo, a setting of the Nicene Creed, is the longest text of a sung mass. IV. Sanctus and Benedictus: The Sanctus is a doxology praising the Trinity. V. Agnus Dei: The Agnus Dei is a setting of the "Lamb of God" litany, containing the responses miserere nobis (have mercy upon us), repeated twice, and dona nobis pacem (grant us peace) once at the end. Although originally composed for Choir (SATB) and orchestra, I created this arrangement of the Missa in C Major (Opus 1) for Small Orchestra (Bb Trumpets, Flutes, Oboes, Bb Clarinets, French Horns, Bassoons, Timpani, Violins, Violas, Cellos & Basses). |
Your arrangement is beautiful. I wonder, I direct a wind section with following instruments: Basson, oboe, flute, 2 clarinets, 1 sax (could do also clarinet), Horn in F and a Trombon. Is it possible to have arrangements for this set of instruments? magataganm ![]() ![]() ↪ Thank you! It's arranged for Bb Trumpets, Flutes, Oboes, Bb Clarinets, French Horns, Bassoons, Timpani, Violins, Violas, Cellos & Basses. I'm not sure I would be comfortable re-arranging it for a wind ensemble with only 8 instruments. |
