Arias with 1 or 2 flutes obbligato (with the complete vocal part)-Arias with 1 or 2 Flutes obbligato (with the complete vocal part).Selected movements from secular cantatas from St Matthew Passion Mass in B minor and the Lutheran Mass in A major. This volume presents for the first time all those arias from the oratorios Passions Masses and sacred and secular cantatas of Johann Sebastian Bach that contain obbligato parts for one or two Flutes. The musical text has been adopted from the “ Urtext ” of the New Bach Edition. Music and words are inseparable in Bach’s works. Therefore as an aid to the interpretation of these Flute solos our richly annotated collection offers notonly Flute part but also the complete vocal part for each movement. In this way the edition not only represents a novel form of Orchestral studies it also opens up an important area of the Flute repertoire. Contents:Kantate 45. Es ist dir gesagt Mensch was gut ist.

Purcell Society Volume 25.This volume contains all Purcell's secular solo songs which have no known association with the theatre. It also includes those songs which though mainly for solo voice end with a short duet section. The first edition of this volume was prepared for the Purcell Society by Arthur Somervell published in 1928. This new edition is not just a revision but the outcome of a fresh examination of the sources. A new editorial continuo part more suited to the harpsichord has also been provided.

Pour Quintette de Vents. Par TOMASI HENRI. French composer and conductor, Henri Tomasi (1901-1971) published Five Secular and Sacred Dances for Wind Quintet in 1963. As with his other wind compositions, Five Secular and Sacred Dances was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille, but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured into musical studies by his parents, Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor, and during the summer, he stayed with his Grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However, in 1921, he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and wenton to become a high profile composer and conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes, often incorporating themes of the songs he had learnt during the summers with his Grandmother in to his compositions. Five Secular and Sacred Dances is a reduction arrangement of his work of the same name for Chamber Orchestra. Comprising five movements; 1) Rural Dance, 2) Secular Dance, 3) Sacred Dances, 4) Bridal Dance, and 5) Warrior Dances, Five Secular and Sacred Dances is one of three Wind Quintets by the composer. This Tomasi piece is suitable to an advanced Wind Quintet, providing an exciting alternative addition to the ensemble repertoire./ Répertoire / Quintette à vent

Cantata for the 1st Easter Day-Der Himmel Lacht! Die Erde Jubilieret BWV 31 (The Heavens laugh the earth exults in gladness) BWV 31Cantata for the 1st Easter Day- Performance material (BA10031) vocal score (BA10031-90) and study score (TP1031) available for saleThe text by Salomon Franck who was the librettist of some of Bach's the best-known cantatas is closely linked to the account of Easter and recalls the jubilation at the resurrection of Jesus.Bärenreiter's editions of Bach Cantatas offer the authoritative text of the New Bach Edition meeting Bärenreiter Urtext standards. No group of works in Johann Sebastian Bach?s output is aswide-ranging as the cantatas. This is hardly surprising considering that for over five years Bach was required to compose a work or at least re-work an existing one for every Sunday and festival of the church year as well as for numerous secular occasions such as council inaugurations school and university celebrations and royal birthdays.Unfortunately not all cantatas have survived. However over 200 sacred and secular works exist and form a corpus of works suitable for all possible occasions. This rich musical heritage is still as relevant today as it was then.

Lully, Lullay was written at the request of Philip Reed, music director of the Bury St Edmunds Bach Choir, which gave the first performance on 17 December 2011 at Holy Trinity Church, Long Melford, Suffolk. Inspired by the familiar medieval text of the Coventry Carol , it is sung a cappella and invokes the sense of a lullaby through its metre and lilting melody. The fragility and bittersweet tonality of the opening verse is reflected in the continuous interaction between the tonic and dominant keys and resolving dissonances. This develops into broader passages of increased range and dynamics during the second and third verses, where the melody is passed between the upper and lower voices, clearly invoking the poignancy of the text. The last verse returns to the original theme with subtle harmonic changes and a reflective final cadence. 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, yet accessible, repertoire in an exciting variety of styles. Harriet Wybor was born in Leeds in 1986 and read music as an undergraduate at Durham University, followed by an M.A. in composition with Martyn Harry and António Pinho Vargas. Harriet's main compositional interests are sacred and secular contemporary choral and chamber music, and the relationship between music and time. Her work reflects a wide range of influences from renaissance choral music and medieval texts to 20th-century literature and art. Harriet has had works performed by the Northern Sinfonia (conducted by H K Gruber), Psappha, the Allegri String Quartet, St John's College Choir, Durham, the Bury St Edmunds Bach Choir and the Fishburn Band - broadcast on BBC Radio 2's Listen to the Band . After graduating from Durham University, Harriet continued her studies at the University of Edinburgh, where she read for an LL.M. in innovation, technology and the law. She has subsequently pursued a career in music publishing where she works in copyright and composes in her spare time. / Choeur SATB
