Jazz Gloria - SATB

Will Todd's Jazz Missa Brevis gives new life to the sung Latin Mass texts in an accessible, short setting which embraces a variety of jazz styles, from the swinging jazz waltz Kyrie to the up-beat Latin-groove Gloria. The smooth jazz ballad Sanctus, 7/8 Benedictus and soulful Agnus Dei complete this inspiring Mass setting. Underpinned by Todd's characteristic jazz harmonies and melodic craftsmanship, it is suitable for performance both liturgically and as part of a concert by mixed choirs of all abilities. The work can be accompanied by piano alone (as written or extemporised), jazz trio (piano, bass and drums) or jazz ensemble (alto saxophone, 2 trumpets and jazz trio - parts available separately). / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Ensemble

Par GABRIEL THOMAS. Die „Missa juvenalis“ entstand als Auftragskompostion der Chöre an St. Georg in Bensheim. Sie ist eine moderne Orchestermesse für zweistimmigen Jugendchor und vierstimmigen Erwachsenenchor, Orchester, Sopransolo und zwei Perkussionisten. Die ca. 30minütige Messe vereint den klassischen, lateinischen Messtext mit deutschen Ergänzungen von Dag Hammarskjöld und Meister Eckhart. In „Kyrie“ und „Agnus Dei' eingeschoben, geben Sie dem zeitlosen Messtext eine berückende Aktualität. Die Messe bewegt sich stilistisch zwischen klassischen Modellen, Musical und Jazz. Entsprechend üppig ist die notwendige Ausstattung an Schlagwerk, das zu den Streichern und Holzbläsern hinzutritt./ Répertoire / Chœur Mixte SATB et Orchestre de Chambre

The 'Christmas Choirbook' is a collection of up-to-date, colorful arrangements of 22 Christmas songs from throughout the world. Among classics, dressed in new harmonic sounds, you will enjoy jazz and pop intonations, as well as gospel renditions of 'Go Tell It' and 'Joyful'. The skandinavien Christmas songs are particularly special: contemplative and musical, even droll as in the story about the Christmas troll in the finnish 'Tomtarnass Julnatt'.The 'Christmas Choirbook' offers many stylistic choices for the Christmas and Advent season choir music, so let the available CD (ED 9896-50) inspire you in the joyful singing of these pieces. Of course the recordings, meant only as a first and hopefully appealing impression, represent only a few of the many possible interpretations you will bring to the arrangements.Full verses were intentionally not recorded, although we did overlay simple instrumental accompaniments to the a cappella movements. In addition, the CD includes pure choire versions as well as some 'sing-a-longs', i.e. instrumental tracks for you to use as half-playback. / Choeur
