La renommée de Carl Maria von Weber repose principalement sur , Der Freischütz '. Le succès sans précédent de cet opéra éclipsé tous ses autres travaux et a contribué à leur chute de plus en plus dans l'oubli . Certains travaux tels que , Preciosa ', , Oberon , et , Euryanthe ' , les ouvertures, concertos en solo et sonates pour piano , des lieder et chambre oeuvres jouissent d'une grande popularité et ont été largement connus en Allemagne et à l'étranger aussi tard que la deuxième moitié de la 19ème siècle . Cependant , toute chance d'une renaissance de Weber et influentoeuvre considérable a été perdu dans les années 1920 , quand une édition complète - commencé par Hans Joachim Moser et avec les contributeurs potentiels, y compris Wilhelm Kempff , Hans Pfitzner , Max von Schillings , Fritz Stein et Richard Strauss - a échoué après le troisième volume .Depuis , il ya eu de nombreuses tentatives pour relancer une édition complète des oeuvres de Weber , mais que ce genre de projet , il aurait fallu la collaboration de chercheurs des deux côtés de la frontière inter- allemande , la situation politique après 1945 n'était pas propice à une telle entreprise . Négociations approfondies ont conduit aux premières mesures concrètes dans les années 1980 . L'intention , dès le début , était de placer l'oeuvre de Weber dans son contexte, et ne pas se séparer de sa production musicale de son travail influent comme un écrivain , critique et organisateur dans le domaine musical , mais de publier ses compositions avec ses lettres, journaux et d'autres la production littéraire comme le meilleur moyen de documenter la fertilisation croisée entre ses activités musicales , littéraires et pratiques .Depuis la réunification des deux - groupes de travail allemands concernés - à la Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin , et au Séminaire Musikwissenschaftliches , Detmold / Paderborn - ont coopéré sur l'édition complète des oeuvres musicales ( c. 45 volumes de la série 10 : sacré musique - cantates , des odes et des autres travaux occasionnels- oeuvres scéniques , lieder et des oeuvres vocales - oeuvres orchestrales , musique de chambre , musique pour piano - réductions pour piano - Miscellanea , arrangements et orchestrations , des oeuvres d' attribution douteuse ) . Les journaux (6-8 vol.) Sont édités à Berlin et les lettres (8-10 vol.) Et d'autres écrits ( 2 vol. ) À Detmold .Cette édition complète vise à constituer une base fiable de débat scientifique , ainsi que pour la pratique de la performance authentique de la musique de Carl Maria von Weber . Conforme aux normes d'éditions historico-critiques récentes , le matériau textuel sera basé sur les sources authentiques disponibles , accompagnés par une documentation détaillée de la genèse et une liste de variantes pour chaque travail . L'importance musicologique des travaux sera évaluée en les plaçant dans leur contexte historique , la présentation de leur genèse , l'histoire et les commentaires critiques . Les lettres , les écrits et les journaux seront considérés comme interdépendants et pertinente à l'autre dans les commentaires , donc les lecteurs devraient bénéficier d'une foule de renseignements concis et renvois . / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Instruments Divers

Composer Orlando Gibbons was the leading English composer of his time the late 16th and early 17th century. This five-Voice SSATB madrigal is the best known of his many madrigals and remains compellingly beautiful.The sheet music also includes A Catch on Tobacco by theologian philosopher and composer Dr Henry Aldrich. It dates from 1685 when the composer was Dean of Christ Church Oxford and widely known among his contemporaries as a convivial soul who among his writings created a Latin epigramme listing five reasons for drinking. The performance notes stipulate that the round is to be sung by four men while smoking their pipes.

Introit for the feast of All Saints-'This short celebratory setting originally composed as an introit for the Wells Cathedral Girl Choristers was arranged for SSATB in 2010 (the upper parts unaltered) for the Exon Singes Festival. The text ('Let us all rejoice') exists in a number of versions and here honours 'all the saints at whose solemnly the angels rejoice'. The texture essentially imitative is governed by a syncopated melodic phrase which gives way to softer material in the middle section. The return of the opening idea drives the piece towards a broad jubilant conclusion.'John Phibbs

Par WHITBOURN JAMES. This glorious collection of beautiful choral music by composer James Whitbourn includes fifteen short works drawn from his oeuvre from the first few years of the 21st century. Many of his greatest compositions are included in The Choral Collection, with many of the pieces working perfectly for seasonal performances, while also reflecting the many fruitful collaborations of Whitbourn's distinguished career. All works are arranged for SATB Choir. James Whitbourn has become renowned throughout the world for his acclaimed compositions and settings of numerous texts. He has been described as truly original and an innovator of contemporary British choral music, collaborating with people like Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Choir of King's College, Cambridge. The former appears here, as A Prayer Of Desmond Tutu, a setting of one of the Archbishop's prayers. His arrangements and compositions for the King's College Choir have been universally critically acclaimed, with A Great And Mighty Wonder, Nunc Dimittis and Were You There? representing these hugely popular collaborations. Whitbourn has also had a very close relationship with the BBC since his beginnings as a composer, working with them on three pieces within The Choral Collection. Eternal Rest and Give Us The Wings Of Faith were both composed specifically for television broadcast, the former (in its orchestral form) was played for the funeral of the Queen Mother in 2002. His longest work, for which he is most famous, is a setting of text from'the Diary of Anne Frank'. There Is No Speech Or Language comes from this work, taking its text from other sources, but that still maintain the beauty and tragedy of the wider piece. The Choral Collection of fifteen compositions by James Whitbourn is full of beautiful, haunting, uplifting and inspiring melodies for SATB Choir and Organ Accompaniment from one of the most treasured British choral composers. The brilliant choice of texts throughout is matched only by the sheer compositional skill of Whitbourn in evoking the emotions of the words in the musical form. Also included are suggestions for seasonal song use, a list of recordings, and fascinating song notes written by Whitbourn himself. The joy of choral singing is nowhere more evident than in a work by James Whitbourn, and performances of any piece within this collection is sure to be remembered for a long time to come./ Recueil / Choeur Mixte (SATB) et Orgue

The text of Susanni is a translation of Martin Luther’s hymn of 1535 Vom Himmel hoch. The music is based loosely upon the well-known chorale melody which at times is quoted in full in both voices and organ. Except where indicated singers should adopt a legato style especially in the repeated quaver patterns. In the bars which appear to be in compound time conductors should beat in crotchets.An inspiring selection of new works from a range of contemporary composers the Novello New Choral Series offers pieces for all types of choirs including sacred and secular works from simple four-part settings to more expansive yetaccessible repertoire in an exciting variety of styles. Bill Ives has spent his life in choral music as a singer conductor teacher and composer (writing as Grayston Ives). He was a chorister at Ely Cathedral and later studied music at Cambridge taking composition lessons with Richard Rodney Bennett. After Cambridge he sang in Guildford Cathedral Choir before joining the King’s Singers with whom he recorded and performed worldwide.For eighteen years he directed the Choir of Magdalen College Oxford. During his tenure the choir earned a Grammy nomination for a disc of music by Orlando Gibbons and gave the première of Paul McCartney’s Ecce Cor Meum written especially for them. In 2008 his work as a composer and conductor of church music was recognised with the award of a Lambeth DMus and a Fellowship of the Royal School of Church Music.
