Though intended for Communion, each setting has its own theme, making them suitable at other times—whether in praise of the risen Christ, as a song to answer Christ’s invitation to the banquet, or when we gather in his name and then go forth to share his life with the world. While scored for SATB voices, the settings are versatile enough for use by cantor and assembly or by smaller, unison choirs. The accompaniments work well on organ, piano, or guitar. Contents: Alleluia, Alleluia, Praise the Risen Son!, Happy Are All Who Are Called to the Feast and Where Two or More Have Come.

A concertato on in babilone with two quite varied texts. the second is the well-known “There's a wideness in God's mercy,†while the first is a lesser-know text for the feast of a martyr. It's a rather big setting for SATB, assembly, organ and brass, but if your parish patron is a martyr, this may be just the piece for a parish dedication, anniversary or feast day celebration. .

Original anthem This engaging communion anthem draws on the unity of all believers who are gathered to break bread. It features a powerful melody that supports the text, Come to the feast and be restored, we are one at the table of Christ, the Lord! The tune KINSGFOLD appears in the middle and perfectly complements the hymn text, In Christ there is no east or west, making this an ideal selection for World Communion Sunday.

A versatile Mass setting for use throughout the liturgical year, Mass of the Sun of Justice / Misa Sol de Justicia is fully bilingual, singable entirely in English or in Spanish, or any pastoral combination of both languages. At its core, this setting is built on assembly-minded melodies. Much of the choral writing is two-part, albeit spelled out in four voices, whereby the basses frequently double the soprano melody, and the alto and tenor lines essentially share a single harmony in their respective ranges, splitting only at cadence points for a fuller effect. Optional descants and divisi further expand the voicing possibilities. The additional instrumentation is particularly spirited, further enhancing these sung texts for solemn occasions. “Sun of justice†is a term used to reference Christ with respect to his second coming, as found in the ancient “O†antiphons. This title appears in the Lectionary among the Alleluia options for the common of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and is, in fact, assigned to the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, celebrated within the Advent season. As such, the music is “Advent-like†in nature—joyful and filled with hope. ~~~~~ Una Misa versátil para usar durante todo el año litúrgico, Mass of the Son of Justice / Misa Sol de Justicia es completamente bilingüe, se puede cantar completamente en inglés o en español, o en cualquier combinación pastoral de ambos idiomas. En esencia, este arreglo se basa en melodÃas para la asamblea. Gran parte de la escritura coral es de dos partes, aunque escrito para cuatro voces, por lo que los bajos con frecuencia duplican la melodÃa de soprano, y las lÃneas de alto y tenor comparten esencialmente una sola armonÃa en sus respectivos rangos, dividiéndose solo en los puntos de cadencia para una melodÃa más completa. Los discante y divisi opcionales amplÃan aún más las posibilidades de sonorización. La instrumentación adicional es particularmente animada, mejorando aún más estos textos cantados para ocasiones solemnes. Sol de justicia es un término que se usa para referirse a Cristo con respecto a su segunda venida, como se encuentra en las antÃfonas O antiguas. Este tÃtulo aparece en el Leccionario entre las opciones de Aleluya para el común de la SantÃsima Virgen MarÃa y, de hecho, está asignado a la fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, celebrada dentro del tiempo de Adviento. Como tal, la música es en esencia de adviento—alegre y llena de esperanza. ~~~~~ Preview select songs from this mass setting in the video below:.

Andreas Pieper's overall artistic aim to 'build a bridge of confidence to the world behind things' with his music can be heard clearly in his setting of Tollite iugum meum. The Latin-language motet for mixed a cappella choir (SATB) for the Feast of the Sacred Heart (Friday after Corpus Christi) is based on verses from the Gospel according to Matthew (Mt. 11,29). Permeated by changes of time and key, yet easy to master by amateur choirs, the piece is ideal for use in the church's liturgy. The devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus centres on the sin and thus also on the sinfulness of man, which is musically realized here through a steady and moderate tempo, with the sinful man standing before God without any instrumental means, completely naked so to speak.

The text is from The Book of Common Prayer, the music is original. A melismatic chant-like opening builds steadily to a dramatic declamation of the text Therefore let us keep the feast. Then the chant line continues softly in the accompaniment as the final alleluias are sung. The organ accompaniment is quite sufficient but can be augmented with Brass Quintet. From Mass of the Resurrection (ECS 8325).

It's been some time since we've heard from the composer of the beloved Taste and See, but Come to the Feast is certainly worth the wait. A resident of Vienna, Austria, James Moore has made a special return visit to the United States to produce this lively new collection. Known for simple refrains perfect for assembly singing, this collection offers Let Us Go Rejoicing, featuring a delightful refrain in canon, Love Endures, a wedding song with a simple congregation response, and Praise Ye the Lord, a wonderful new hymn. I Am Special was written for use with children's choirs and may also be used with a combined choir of adults and children. Alive! is a lively song written especially for youth, while Be Still is a meditative tune ideal for after Communion. Includes one of each of the following octavos: I Will Be with You - Touch Somebody’s Life - Do You Know Me - Let Us Go to the House of the Lord - An Irish Blessing - Taste and See - Hail Mary, Gentle Woman - Come to the Feast - Welcome In - Spirit of God - Be Still - Love Endures - Litany of Thanksgiving - I Am Special - Alive - Praise Ye the Lord - Sing to the Glory of God.

In addition to the propers and antiphons appropriate to the respective festivals of the church year, the second part of the 1607 Gradualia contains, it is thought, a hidden tribute: a set of Propers for the Feast of St. Peter's Chains, perhaps celebrated on 1 August 1603 to commemorate, on 21 July of that year, the elevation to the peerage of Byrd's longstanding patron Sir John Petre.
