Arranged for SATB choir, two keyboards, strings, and optional harp, with soprano, tenor (optional) and baritone soloists, this fresh and unorthodox interpretation reflects on the words of the Latin Mass by juxtaposing them with poems in English. For soprano solo and SATB choir, this movement begins with the choir on the English text by Phineas Fletcher (1633). A 32-measure soprano solo follows, which covers the majority of the English text. The soloist then begins the “Recordare,� �¢â‚¬Â a calm, descending melodic line with the choir singing the opening “Drop, drop” motif as accompaniment. The choir then concludes with the slow, descending lines “Jesu pie, Jesu pie.” Duration 4:04.

Handbells - Easy

SKU: PL.9509HB

Composed by Sam Batt Owens. Parish. Choral, General, Lent. Handbell score. Paraclete Press #9509HB. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9509HB).

Sam Batt Owens conveys the languid feeling of this Lenten text with a descending melodic bell and vocal line, as tears would fall to the ground. This descending motif is developed and repeated throughout at varying tempos and dynamic levels. He creates a sense of suffering, particularly in the crying for vengeance, where the bells rise and fall with the urgency of the text, and are left undamped. This two-part anthem is accessible not only to adult choirs, but to youth choirs as well.
