SKU: A0.810855
Composed by Anton Bruckner. Arranged by O'Neil, Stuart P. Christian,Romantic Period,Sacred. Score and parts. 27 pages. Gordon Cherry #3560883. Published by Gordon Cherry (A0.810855).Ecce Sacerdos Magnus ("Behold the Great Priest") comes from the early European tradition of plainchant. Bruckner’s setting of the responsory, originally scored for eight-part mixed choir, organ and three trombones, brings certain medieval qualities to an otherwise Romantic-era composition.
This transcription for 10-part brass choir is appropriate for intermediate level and above and attempts to retain the majesty, power, and beauty of the original piece. It should be approached as a choral piece: connected and fluid. The harmonic language is essentially triadic; great care should be taken in the tuning of each chord throughout the piece.
Instrumentation is for: 3 Trumpets in B-flat, 2 Horns, 3 Trombones, Euphonium and Tuba.
Listen to the live performance by a young group of musicians conducted by Dr. Paul Stevens, Professor of Horn at KU.
