| Ajoutée par magataganm, 14 Sep 2013 Jan Nepomuk Škroup (1811 – 1892) was a Czech composer, conductor, and choirmaster. His brother František Škroup was also a successful composer, known today as the composer of the Czech national anthem, "Kde domov můj?" ("Where is my home?"). His father, Dominik Škroup, and other brother, Ignác Škroup, were also composers .Škroup held positions (as Vice-Kapellmeister, then choirmaster, and then 2nd Kapellmeister) in the Estates Theatre in Prague, from 1836 to 1843, and was also affiliated with the theatre from 1874 to 1882. He held various other choirmaster positions, including one at the Prague Cathedral, from 1843. The graduale: "Benedictus es, Domine" ("Blessed are you, Lord"), derives from a rich treasury of chants which set the tone and character of particular feasts and seasons of the Church's year. These chants are found in the Graduale Romanum, the collection of “proper” chants. The style of Gregorian chant may be unfamiliar to many people in our churches today. This unfamiliarity, however, ought not to be an obstacle to the singing of those texts, usually drawn from scripture, and which are so fitting to the celebration The English lyrics read: Blessed are you, Lord, who look into the depths throne upon the cherubim. Blessed are you, Lord, in the firmament of heaven, and praised for ever. Blessed are you, Lord, God of our fathers; and praised for ever. Although this work was originally written for Chorus (SATB), I created this arrangement for Solo Acoustic Piano. | |||
