Anthem. Par PURCELL HENRY. The Anthem, in the post-Reformation church music of England was initially the term given to a choral work with an English biblical text. By the end of the 17th century it begins to take on Italian stylistic elements and becomes a cantata for solo voices, choir and orchestra. The anthem 'O sing unto the Lord' presented here, based on words of the 96th Psalm, is a particul…

for string quartet. Par VASKS PETERIS. In 2013, Peteris Vasks set Mother Teresa’s peace prayer “The fruit of silence is prayer” for the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival. The piece is for mixed choir however the versions for piano quintet and string quartet now make this musical expression of Mother Teresa's words accessible to two traditional genres of chamber music without the help of a choir. /…

Easter Fantasy. Par BILKES MICHAEL. Fantasia di Pasqua is a fantasy in which traditional Easter melodies have been used. The work is written for brass band with a separate brass quartet which, since this music is often performed in churches, the composer suggests should be positioned on a gallery.

For Children's Choir and Piano . Par PART ARVO. ‘I went to nursery school every day until the end of secondary school!’ Arvo Pärt says and pauses, staring slyly at his listener. ‘My mother worked at a nursery school in Rakvere, and I always went to visit her after my lessons.’ There, the future composer often sat at the piano and played or improvised for his little friends. Arvo Pärt is a composer…

Scored for chorus, children's choir, organ and chamber orchestra, St Luke Passion adopts a pared-back focus on choral voices over its 75-minute span. Seeking a more spiritual, inward approach to match Luke's text, the composer eschews settings of interpolated texts as arias and the customary Evangelist and Christ soli: everything is sung by choral forces. A children's choir grants a measure of inn…

Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). Jingle Bells dates from the mid-nineteenth century and is thought to be one of the first secular Christmas songs to ?top the charts?. It is in fact not about Christmas at all but instead about the ?Cutter? drag races in Boston, where young men would race sleighs and attempt to impress the girls with their speed. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles serie…

Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. Psalm 137 'Super flumina Babylonis' also known as 'By the rivers of Babylon' was an inspiration for many composers including Camille Saint-Saëns. He repeatedly occupied himself with his psalm motet for solo soprano, mixed choir, saxophone quartet, string orchestra and organ, originally composed in 1854. Two of the four versions – the first version in Latin and a much later…
