Largely based on the A. C. Swinburne poem ââ¬ÅMusic: An Ode,ââ¬Â this piece celebrates the gift and meaning of music in our lives. Set in a flowing 6/8 for SATB with piano, the choral parts are easy but the piano part, although lovely and quite essential, is far from that.

Invictus: A Passion addresses one of the worldââ¬â¢s most powerful stories through the lens of the modern world. The texts, written or inspired by women, describe not only human suffering and persecution but also the human capacity for love and humility in the face of tyranny. Composer Howard Goodall is uniquely suited to bring these texts to life with music of emotional clarity and sweeping force. This excerpt is scored for SATB (divisi) choir and piano. A text by Ãâ melia Lanyer (née Bassano) (ââ¬ÅWhy should unlawful actions use the Light?ââ¬Â) is set as a homophonic chorale with a supportive accompaniment. Duration 3:32.

Written for the Enchanted Voices CD, this is one of many settings of texts either from the Beatitudes (or springing from them) available from this composer. For Solo and SS divisi, a cappella, the music has a light, ethereal feeling. ââ¬ÅBeatiââ¬Â can be taken as a sort of ââ¬ÅBlessed are theyââ¬Â prefix for the movements which are not direct quotes from the Beatitudes. This movement is a unison, chant-like setting of the Latin texts for Genesis 20:13 (ââ¬ÅThou shalt do me this kindnessââ¬Â¦Ã¢â¬Â) and Numbers 11:17 (ââ¬ÅAnd I will take of thy spiritââ¬Â). The soloist begins and sometimes takes over from the choral voices. Mostly unison except for about ten measures (out of the 69) in two-part texture and four measures in three parts. Duration 4:39

Set for SATB voices, a soprano or tenor soloist, and piano, Goodallââ¬â¢s original text is a promise of constancy from one person to another. Through many kinds of situations and circumstances it is assured that ââ¬ÅWeââ¬â¢ll walk together stride by stride.ââ¬Â The choral parts are homophonic and approachable, the piano part a bit challenging (there is one section which is essentially a beautiful piano solo with the chorus accompanying on a neutral syllable). An uplifting piece suitable for school, community, or professional choruses.

Midwinter Song is a Christmas carol that calls us to love, faith, and hope. With a beautiful and supportive piano accompaniment and accessible vocal lines, this work will appeal to a wide variety of levels. Susan Labarr's Midwinter Song is a new work for Advent or Christmas. Labarr opens the piece with a gentle piano solo that perfectly captures the mystery of the poetry—the words seem to travel out of a time in the deep past and give homage to the neglected art of both rhythm and rhyme. In particular, the description of the world gathering in amber halls in the first verse wonderfully conjures images of medieval casltes or mead halls lit only with firelight and candles, full with the sound of carols.

The lyrics to Der Mond ist aufgegangen (The Moon Is Risen) come from Matthias Claudius, one of Germany’s best-known poets. The 1779 poem with the original title Abendlied (Evening song) was set to music by Johann Abraham Peter Schulz and has become perhaps the most famous Abendlied in the German-speaking world. Johann de Haan has created a delightful arrangement of this poignant melody. The wind orchestra can optionally be accompanied by a choir (Dutch and German texts are provided).De tekst van het lied Der Mond ist aufgegangen is van de hand van Matthias Claudius, een bekende Duitse dichter.

Missa Brevis is a major work for choir and brass band for performance in church or in the concert hall. For this mass, there are many performance possibilities depending on the musicians available. In addition to the standard orchestration of choir and band a brass quartet can also play the choral parts. For this it is desirable for the brass quartet to be positioned separately from the rest of the band (on a gallery, for example), so that the idea of two choirs is heard. It is also possible to perform the work with brass band and organ. A truly flexible religious masterpiece.Missa Brevis, eine Messe für Blasorchester und Chor ad libitum, kann in diversen variablen Spielstärken aufgeführt werden. Zahlreiche mögliche Instrumentenkombinationen und darüber hinaus diverse mögliche Kombinationen mit großen oder kleineren Chören, lassen eine Vielzahl von verschiedenen Aufführungen zu. Darüber hinaus ergeben sich durch die Orgelbegleitung weitere Aufführungsvarianten. Eine Aufstellung aller verschiedenen Besetzungsmöglichkeiten wird vom Komponisten mitgeliefert. Die Entscheidung für eine reine Instrumental- oder eine der kombinierten Varianten liegt ganz im künstlerischen oder praktischen Ermessen des Dirigenten. Die wunderschöne Musik aus der Feder vonJacob de Haan garantiert in jedem Fall einen gelungenen Auftritt!
