During the last summer of his life, Franz Schubert completed the Mass in E-flat D 950. The occasion for the composition of this Missa solemnis cannot be clarified with certainty. Schubert did not live to see the premiere of his sixth mass, which was first performed posthumously in 1829 under the baton of his brother Ferdinand.Among other things, the editor has paid particular attention to the articulation. In order to be able to present Schubert??s differentiated use of accents in the edition, a new symbol has been introduced: an accent which is flexible with regard to its length, thus making it possible to precisely visualize its compositionally intended duration.

Scored for baritone (or tenor) solo, mixed choir and orchestra, this work was composed in 1936-37, and sets a utopian and pacifist poem by John Addington Symonds (1840-93): Say, heart, what will the future bring / To happier men when we are gone... This edition is the latest addition to Boosey & Hawkess series of organ reductions of choral/orchestral scores (Finzis Requiem da Camera, For St Cecilia, In terra pax). The reductions broaden the reach of these works to choirs which do not wish to present the works with orchestra, as with other standards from the sacred repertoire such the Requiems of Faure and Durufle. athetically recreat The Reductions sympathetically recreate the orchestra scoring for a three-manual organ. Ingeniously, the manual couplings (II to III, II and III to I) are unaltered throughout, with pedal coupled to manuals as appropriate. Detailed registrations are not indicated as these are best left to the performer, taking into account the unique circumstances of the particular instrument, size of choir and acoustic setting at each performance.

Repe rtoire of romantic choral music worth discovering: In his unaccompanied choral songs the expressive melodies of the song composer Schumann combine with a harmonically rich, sometimes even experimental composition. Though in current concert repertoire they are far less often performed than, for example, comparable works by Mendelssohn or Brahms, they are unjustly underestimated. Schumann himself wrote that he had composed the choral songs with true passion, in the belief that things like this did not yet exist. Schumann composed most of the choral songs, which are mainly homophonic, in 1849 for the Verein fur Chorgesang founded by him and the Leipzig Liederkranz. The volume brings together choral settings which where previously only available by Carus in separate editions, plus the choral song Glockenturmers Tochterlein which only exists in manuscript.

“This piece is a morning tune [Morgenlied], for which I have set an excerpt from The Lord Chandos Letter by Hugo von Hofmannsthal. I imagine the melodic vocal line alongside the resonant piano timbre to reflect the poets indescribable feelings for the magic of reality and his fascination with the inability of language to define the essence of things. I could not resist forging a connection between the description of von Hofmannsthals experience of infinity and the dream journey of a shaman.” –Thierry Pécou.
