Catholic Irish Classics celebrates the sacred music of an ancient heritage and culture. The songs on this CD, both old and new, reflect the rich spirituality of Ireland. Beloved tunes such as slane and st. columba have been sung for centuries paired with relatively newer texts like “Be Thou My Vision” and “O Breathe on Me, O Breath of God.” Meanwhile, songs like “The Clouds’ Veil” or “May the Road Rise to Meet You” are contemporary musical settings of prayers and texts that have issued from the lips of the faithful for generations. This recording features the talented voices of Liam Lawton, Theresa Donohoo, Ian Callanan, and many more. Have a listen and let Catholic Irish Classics feed your soul, spark your imagination, and whisk you away on a journey of faith to the Emerald Isle. .

A compact multi-themed choral collection for unaccompanied mixed chorus - and in the best sense, a best of current song arrangements! With 35 contemporary song arrangements, the choral collection offers the right song for many occasions: for concerts, weddings, and other celebrations, for Christmas time, or even for ending a choir rehearsal with a nocturne. The focus of the collection lies in folk songs, love songs, nocturnes, and Christmas carols. All the song arrangements were composed in the last fifteen years, and were mainly commissioned for Carus choral collections published as part of the LIEDERPROJEKT - the charitable project supporting singing with children. the works of around 30 highly experienced arrangers are brought together in the volume, including Matt hias E. Becker, Ludwig Bohme, Wolfram Buchenberg, Thomas Gabriel, Gunther Martin Gottsche, John Hoybye, Veit Hubner, Burkhard Kinzler, Giacomo Mezzalira, Vytautas Miskinis, Vic Nees, Peter Schindler, Robert Sund, Christoph Schonherr, Jozef Świder and Alan Wilson. Their arrangements reflect the variety of styles - from contemporary arrangements in classic harmonisations to pieces from jazz, pop, folk, and dance music - with which today's composers can breathe new life into traditional melodies and texts. The song repertoire is also distinguished by its wide variety: classics of the German folk song and Christmas carol repertoire (Kein schoner Land, Leise rieselt der Schnee, etc.) are included in the choral collection as well as excursions into the song repertoire of other countries (La vie en rose, Twinkle, twinkle, little star, etc.) All the arrangements are of easy to medium difficulty, so making this new music, with its wide range of styles, accessible to as many choirs as possible.

Gottwald has a knack for bringing contemporary classics to multi-part unaccompanied chorus of voices. For Webern's Im Sommerwind, he has taken all of the singable bits and assembled them into a surprisingly articulate and sensible transcription. With the voices approximating instrumental melodic lines in this lush, layered setting, the listeners can forget that they are listening to voices alone. For advanced choirs.

In my sixth work for a string quartet, there is a very simple melody concealed in the background. That melody (distant voices) is played within an extremely slow tempo, and the notes which form the melody gain different textures by becoming disassembled, and played by different techniques. In our daily lives, our inner voices become concealed by our daily customs. The act of composing, tome, is to find out that concealed distant voices, make those voices spatialized and construct them within the musical time. This work is dedicated to Alois Lageder. Toshio Hosokawa.
