Jeremiah Clarke (c. 1674-1707) belongs to the generation of English composers following that of Henry Purcell. Not much is known about his early life, but by 1685 he was a chorister of the Chapel Royal, a group of liturgical musicians attached to the court. He held the post of organist at Winchester College from 1692 but later returned to London as Master of the Choristers at St Paul’s Cathedral. The Prince of Denmark’s March is perhaps his best-known work and was originally written for harpsichord, although Clarke later included it in a collection of pieces for wind instruments.Jeremiah Clarke (vers 1674-1707) fait partie de la génération de compositeurs anglais succédant celle d’Henry Purcell. On sait très peu de choses sur ses débuts musicaux. En 1685, il entre en tant que choriste la chapelle royale d’Angleterre, un ensemble de musiciens liturgiques au service de la cour. partir de 1692, il est organiste Winchester College avant de retourner Londres où il est nommé chef des chœurs de la Cathédrale Saint-Paul. The Prince of Denmark’s March (“La Marche du Prince du Danemarkâ€) est sans aucun doute la plus connue des œuvres de Clarke. Composée l’origine pour clavecin, elle est incluse plus tard par Clarke dans unrecueil de pièces pour instruments vent.

During his short lifetime Max Reger (1873-1916) was a prolific composer with many of his best known works being composed for organ. The ten chorale preludes in this selection are from his set of Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op.135a composed as short voluntaries for liturgical use rather than for recitals in these arrangements Philip Sparke has kept this in mind and each prelude can be performed with minimal instrumentation for those occasions where a small band is needed. They also make great pieces for band warm-ups or studies in intonation, sound and balance.Max Reger (1873-1916) is de componist van 30 Koraalbewerkingen, op. 135a voor orgel. Hieruit stammen deze tien preludes. Eigenlijk waren ze bedoeld als vrij muzikaal intermezzo binnen de kerkelijke muziek. En ook met dit arrangementvoor blaasorkest houdt Philip Sparke rekening met dit oorspronkelijke doel. Hij maakte ze speelbaar voor een minimale bezetting zodat u ze ook met een klein ensemble tijdens de kerkdienst kunnen uitvoeren. Verder zijn ze ook bijzondergeschikt als opwarmstuk en als stem-, klank- of balansoefening. Bovendien kunt u ze als kleine suite gebruiken in een concertprogramma. Veelzijdig!Max Reger komponierte eine Fülle an Werken vieler Genres. Unter anderem schrieb er 30 kleine Vorspiele zu den gebräuchlichsten Chorälen für Orgel, die mehr als für den liturgischen Rahmen, denn als Vortragsstücke gedacht waren. Seine Blasorchesterbearbeitung dieser zehn Präludien machte Philip Sparke daher für eine minimale Besetzung spielbar, so dass sie auch Gottesdienst verwendet werden können. Außerdem eignen sie sich auch hervorragend als Aufwärmstücke, Stimm-, Klang- oder Balanceübungen oder in verschiedenen Zusammenstellungen als kleine Suiten für den Konzertgebrauch. Eine vielseitige Sammlung, die in keinem Repertoire fehlen sollte!Max Reger (1873-1916) a composé les 30 petits Préludes de choral pour orgue, op. 135a, dont sont extraits les dix préludes choisis pour cet arrangement pour orchestre d’harmonie. Philip Sparke est resté fidèle aux pièces originales. Le choix de l’instrumentation permet d’interpréter ces dix préludes avec une formation effectif réduit qui peut être amenée participer un office. Ces pièces peuvent également être utilisées pour effectuer une mise en lèvres ou pour travailler l’intonation, le son et l’équilibre entre les différents pupitres.Nella sua breve vita Max Reger (1873-1916) fu un compositore molto prolifico noto per le sue composizioni per organo. Le dieci corali arrangiate da Philip Sparke fanno parte de Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op. 135a, composte per uso liturgico piuttosto che recitativo. Questo arrangiamento tiene conto del fatto che ogni preludio può essere eseguito con una strumentazione minima. Dieci pezzi ideali anche come riscaldamento, studio dell’intonazione e del suono.

This cycle of orchestral songs sets four poems from an early collection by Rilke entitled Das Stundenbuch, or in English, Book of Hours. Although the title refers to a medieval book of prayers for the various times of day and seasons of the liturgical year, Rilke's texts occupy a position some distance from conventional piety. There is a melancholy to the spirituality expressed here, which speaks of an experience of God that is fragmentary, imperfect, and unattainable. The solitude evoked in the second song (as layers of busy activity are gradually peeled away) offers some solace, but the third song is very dark and fierce, filled with a desperate, even manic desire for God. The last song returns to the mood of the first, but now in a global rather than individual context. This song, like the set as a whole, speaks of our world's brokenness, yet strives to stammer fragments of God's name.

For the first time a completely self-contained organ repertoire is presented which originated in the churches of northern Germany after 1780, and yet keeping up the musical traditions of the 17th century. Thus, a many-facetted, more recent organ music from northwestern middle Europe is now accessible. Focal points of the music clearly are church songs and counterpoint; a fascinating element is the rich chromaticism. The pieces are of medium difficulty, practical for liturgical or concert use.

For accomplished vocalist Theresa Donohoo, liturgical music has always been a family affair, most often traveling and performing with her husband Rory Cooney (with their son in tow) and family friend Gary Daigle. Now, with Family Resemblance, Theresa sings of the larger family that we are in Christ. The songs on this recording are a testament to the ups and downs, joys and trials of the family of God, and the ever-present faith that leads us through. Theresa seemlessly interprets the trusting and faithful text of The Deer's Cry: I Arise, a simply magnificent piece of music. Too Many Walls and Lost and Found, with their themes of conflict, forgiveness, and reconciliation, are re-recorded here (originally from Rory Cooney's musical, Lost and Found.) Finally, Theresa delivers an upbeat and inspiring rendition of Lord of the Dance, bringing to life the story of Jesus especially for children. Throughout the recording, Theresa's voice is at once strong and tender with a spirited Irish lilt, stirring the emotions of the soul. A wonderful collection by a inspired vocalist! Â .

Based on the liturgical hymn The Doxology written in 1674 by Thomas Ken, this lyrical and sensitive arrangement for the beginning band provides multiple teaching opportunities in a rich musical setting. The first melodic statement is written as a musical exchange between soloists or sections creating a connection and awareness between sections of the band. The second melodic statement is a lush full ensemble setting in contrast. The use of mixed meter in an accessible and musically logical manner reinforces teaching and concepts introduced in the first year of most beginning band methods. A beautiful and educational choice for your concert program!

This volume contains short two-part extracts from choral church music of the 15th century (masses and motets), arranged in ascending order of difficulty. The principal aim of this compilation was pedagogical: to provide students with fairly easy etudes of the period, through which they can later gain access to the large-scale, four-part compositions of Renaissance vocal polyphony, which at first sight generally seem very difficult and complex. At the same time, many of these pieces of varying length, each of which forms a complete unit in itself, are very suitable for public performance, and for use in a liturgical framework.In diesem Band finden sich nach Schwierigkeitsgrad geordnet kurze zweistimmige Ausschnitte aus geistliche Chorwerken (Messen und Motetten) des 15. Jahrhunderts. Diese Sammlung verfolgt vor allem pädagogische Ziele, in dem sie den Schülern leichtere, zeitgenössische ‚Etüden' in die Hand gibt, durch die sie später auch bis hin zu den grossangelegten, vier- oderfünfstimmigen und auf den ersten Blick zumeist recht schwer und kompliziert wirkenden Kompositionen der Polyphonie in der Renaissance gelangen können. Gleichzeitig sind seinezahlreichen, auch in sich selbst eine abgeschlossene Einheit bildenden, mehr oder weniger langen Stücke hervorragen dazu geeignet, öffentlich aufgeführtoder im Rahmen der Liturgie gesungen zu werden.

Beethoven described his Missa solemnis several times as his greatest work. Coming from the heart, it was intended to touch and move audiences. Beethoven worked long and intensively on the composition in order to give what he felt was adequate expression to the text. In its length and musical demands, the Missa solemnis goes far beyond typical liturgical settings; for good reason, the premiere took place in a concert hall. With this arrangement for chamber orchestra (flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn, trumpet, trombone, timpani and strings, plus organ ad lib), smaller choirs, as well as choirs with more limited resources of space or finance, can now perform this work too. However, the symphonic character and wide dynamic range of the work remain. The scoring of 7 instead of 18 winds offers an optimal balance between transparency and orchestral sound. All the vocal parts (soloists and chorus) are identical with the original version, so that the vocal score and chorus score of that version can be used. Major mass can also be performed by smaller choir Wind and brass parts of the original version reduced to just seven single instruments Vocal scores and choral scores from the original version can be used. carus plus: the work (original version) is available in carus music, the choir app, and in the practice CD series Carus Choir Coach. Score available separately - see item CA.4068900.

De tien koraalpreludes in deze selectie zijn afkomstig uit zijn set van dertig kleine koraalpreludes, opus 135a, die werden gecomponeerd als tussenspelen voor liturgisch gebruik, en niet zozeer voor recitals. Philip Sparke heeft hier rekening mee gehouden zodat elke prelude kan worden uitgevoerd met een minimale instrumentatie bij gelegenheden die een klein ensemble vereisen. De preludes zijn ook heel geschikt als warming-ups of oefeningen in intonatie, sound en klankbalans.Max Reger komponierte während seines recht kurzen Lebens eine Fülle an Werken vieler Genres. Diese zehn Präludien stammen aus 30 kleine Vorspiele zu den gebräuchlichsten Chorälen für Orgel. Sie waren ursprünglich eher als Voluntaries im liturgischen Rahmen, denn als Vortragsstücke gedacht. In seinem Arrangement für Brass Band berücksichtigte Philip Sparke diesen Verwendungszweck und machte sie für eine minimale Besetzung spielbar. Die Präludien eignen sich auch hervorragend als Aufwärmstücke oder als Stimm-, Klang- oder Balanceübungen und sie können in verschiedenen Zusammenstellungen als kleine Suiten aufgeführt werden.Pendant sa courte vie, Max Reger (1873-1916) était un compositeur prolifique dont la plupart des œuvres les plus célèbres furent composées pour orgue. Les dix préludes de choral de cette sélection sortent de ses Trente petits Préludes-Choral op.135a, composés comme morceaux d’orgue pour usage liturgique plutôt qu’ des récitals. Dans ses arrangements, Philip Sparke a gardé cela l’esprit et chaque prélude peut être interprété avec une instrumentation minimale lors d’évènements où un petit ensemble est nécessaire. Ils conviennent aussi comme pièces d’échauffement ou études en intonation, son et balance.
