UPC: 641151026213. Text by Alan J. Hommerding.
The familiar tune ST. CATHERINE becomes a worthy vehicle for Alan Hommerding's text as arranged here by Wolfgang Lampert in a baroque-like style. The well-written organ part and counter-melodies (or optional flute line) support the unison choir in verses 1 and 3, verse 2, set for four-part chorus a cappella, is an unexpected delight and features an alternate choral harmonization.

Eine ganze Gemeinde die Geburt Christi feiern zu lassen und dabei die unterschiedlichen Fahigkeiten musikalischer und gestalterischer Art von Kindern, Jugendlichen und Erwachsenen zusammenzufassen und zur Geltung zu bringen, wurde dieses Stuck geschrieben und in den Jahren von 1946 bis 1954 jeweils am Heiligen Abend in der Kirche zu Ottowind bei Coburg aufgefuhrt. Die von Kindern getragene Spielhandlung, die eigentlich nur darin besteht, ein lebendes Krippenspiel aufzubauen, greift die Tradition der Christgeburtsspiele auf; die Besucher werden einbezogen durch den gemeinsamen Gesang von Weihnachtschoralen; die liturgische Bindung ist durch Schriftlesungen und Vertonungen von Bibeltexten gewahrt. [] Die vorliegende Ausgabe ist zugleich auch als ein weihnachtliches Sing- und Spielbuch gedacht, das im hauslichen Kreise ebenso wie in Schule oder Verein gute Dienste leisten wird.' (Franz Mockl) Fur Kinder ab 6 Jahren geeignet; der gemischte Chor und die Solo-Partien konnen mit Jugendlichen besetzt werden.

Missa brevis for mixed choir and eight wind instruments Op. 5 was created in 1951 and premiered at the Donaueschingen Festival of Contemporary Music the following year. The Ordinary of the Mass (Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus Dei) was composed using a modal technique drawing on medieval examples. The use of wind instruments adds to the rich sound of the choir, thus expanding the sound spectrum in an interesting way. The piece is suitable for both liturgy and concert. Hummel wrote a music which is easy to play by all performers and delights the listeners immediately.

During his most productive period as an opera composer, Camille Saint-Saens also wrote sacred works, among which his Oratorio de Noel has enjoyed great worldwide popularity. The colorful and opulently orchestrated Messe de Requiem was composed in 1878 in Bern. The composer dedicated it to his patron, Albert Libon. We have published this edition both with its larger orchestral forces and to enable perfomances of the Requiem in slightly reduced scoring (without losing the special characteristics of the work), in a version with a smaller orchestra consisting of 11 winds, two harps, organ and string instruments. The full score reproduces the Urtext of the Requiem with its original scoring, whereas the performance material is presented and conceived so to enable it to be performed either in the original orchestration or the version with reduced forces. Score available separately - see item CA.2731700.

Requiem is a powerfully appealing, tender exploration of love and loss. Grounded in tradition while incorporating a present-day harmonic language, two Gregorian Chant motives are interwoven throughout the lush harmonies and soaring melodies. The level of difficulty is within the reach of many choirs and most orchestral players, making it an attractive choice for church or concert hall. A new translation of the traditional text makes it possible to perform the work entirely in English or entirely in Latin. Available accompaniments for piano, organ only, organ and winds, or chamber orchestra. Whether your choir sings a major work twice a year or is looking to try a multi-movement work for the first time, it is an excellent choice for the worship space or concert hall. The work has a flexible duration (28-40 min.) depending on the inclusions optional solo and a cappella movements. 40 min. – Complete – All movements - 34 min. – Without Solo Movements (5 And 9) - 33 min. – Without Unaccompanied Movements (2 and 7) - 28 min. – Without Unaccompanied or Solo Movements (1,3,4,6,9, 10 only) There are 3 accompaniment options: Piano/Organ only; Organ and Winds (5 players + org.); Chamber Orch. (13-20 players).
