From the outset my two vocal versions of Mozart orchestral works were conceived as twins. Both models shared not only key of C minor, but the fact that they were composed towards the end of Mozart's life seemed to suggest they were predestined to be arranged as a pair; and finally, their formal structure and, above all, the quotation of a cantus firmus in each piece seemed to bind these two works together. It was more difficult to consider which text was now suitable to render vocally what previously was an orchestral movement. Naturally it should stand out and textually the movement should be raised to another level. The answer was to use another language here. Therefore, I chose the texts Kyrie eleison and Agnus Dei, i.e., the opening and concluding texts of the Ordinary of the Mass. For a performance of both vocal versions in concert I suggest joining them by playing Mozart's great F minor Fantasy K. 608 as an instrumental intermezzo between them. (Heribert Breuer) Kyrie: Vocal arrangement of the Choral of the Zauberflote Agnus Dei: Vocal arrangement of Maurerische Trauermusik KV 477.

Alternati m is a practice dating from the early Christian church that utilizes two or more performing groups or contrasting styles of composition in the presentation of a liturgical text. In these two Agnus Dei settings, plainchant is contrasted with polyphony. Richard Proulx has edited these useful settings that seamlessly combine a familiar chant dialogue (Agnus Dei XVI) for cantor and assembly with choral extensions by Renaissance composer William Byrd based on this same melody. These settings from the rich heritage of the Church can easily be integrated into your community's Communion rite.

First, Oskar Gottlieb Blarr planned the organ editing of Penderecki's Agnus Dei from the Polish Requiem as a private homage to the esteemed master. Meanwhile, the piece has also been successfully performed by other organists, who proved the organ performance of the poignant Agnus Dei sustainable. As in his other organ works, Blarr followed strict criteria: the strict maintenance of intervals, postures, articulation and phrasing.
