| Ajoutée par magataganm, 14 Janv 2014 Little is know of the composer Joseph (Josef) Anton Bauer (1725-1808). He was born and lived his life in Oedheim, Württemberg, Germany. Bauer was a composer and organist whose most famous work consisted of a series of flute quartets. Heas was a contemporary of the young Beethoven and worked together in Bonn during the 1780's. As an Organist, he produced a sparse body of liturgical works; not all surviving today. His works were published in Paris between 1770 and 1776, in three sets of five compositions each (Opuses 1-5). These works are scored for flute, violin, cello and Keyboard and reveal an advanced early classical style, in some cases with four movement structures. Vespers is the sunset evening prayer service in the Western Catholic, Eastern (Byzantine) Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, and Lutheran liturgies of the canonical hours. The word comes from the Greek ἑσπέρα ("hespera") and the Latin vesper, meaning "evening." It is also referred to in the Anglican tradition as Evening Prayer or Evensong. The term is also used in some Protestant denominations (such as the Presbyterian Church or Seventh-day Adventist Church) to describe evening services. Althouhs ths work was intended for accompanied chorus (SATB), I created this arrangement for Concert (Pedal) Harp and String Orchestra (6 Violins, 4 Violas & 2 Cellos) and it is best played using the "GeneralUser GS.sf2" Soundfont by S.
