A Hymn To The Virginfor unaccompanied chorus is one of Benjamin Britten's earliest works. It is in fact one of the earliest surviving pieces of church music written by the composer. The piece was first performed at a concert given by the Lowestoft Musical Society in St. John's Church on January 5 1931. The anonymous text was taken out of the Oxford Book of English Verse. This piece is written for unaccompanied SATB.

Published with its original text and in English this Icelandic hymn sets three verses in honour of the Virgin Mary attributed to Jon Arason Iceland's last Catholic bishop. Each verse consists of a solo soprano melody rhythmically free and beautiful in its simplicity and a warmer choral refrain. Suitable for concert and church use.

3 Chorale Fantasias, Chorale Variation, 6 Hymn Settings. Par PRAETORIUS MICHAEL. Michael Praetorius (1571-1621) a seulement atteint l'âge de 50 ans, mais a laissé une remarquable richesse des compositions et des traités. D'un point de vue musicologique, il prend une fonction centrale comme médiateur entre la tradition allemande bien établie de la musique d'église protestante et le nouveau monodique, style concertante de composition italienne au début du XVIIe siècle. Après sa formation musicale apparemment self-instructed, il a conclu son premier emploi comme organiste à St. Mary à Francfort/Oder en 1587 et plus tard à la Cour de l'évêque amoureux de la musique de prince Henry Jules de Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Après la mort de ce dernier suivi instables et énergie-sapement ans. Musique d'orgue des Praetorius couvre exclusivement cantus firmus : trois fantaisies choral qui fascinent par leur variété de style, une paire de variations avec une technique de figuration riche et les modalités de leur composition novatrice hymn six. Vis-à-vis du style, son oeuvre est enracinée dans le traditionnel allemand org.../ Répertoire / Orgue
