Anthem. Par PURCELL HENRY. The Anthem, in the post-Reformation church music of England was initially the term given to a choral work with an English biblical text.

B-Dur. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. This Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the first and most straightforward of four litanies which Mozart composed from 1771 to 1776 in Salzburg. Its light instrumental scoring - only the 'church trio'' of two violins and continuo, with trombones used merely to reinforce the choir - suggest that this piece was intended for Marian devotions in the small Court Ch…

Par PANUFNIK ROXANNA. Four Choral Seasons for double choir and orchestra by Roxanna Panufnik. Four Choral Seasons for double choir and orchestra by Roxanna Panufnik./ Répertoire / SATB

Scored for chorus, children's choir, organ and chamber orchestra, St Luke Passion adopts a pared-back focus on choral voices over its 75-minute span. Seeking a more spiritual, inward approach to match Luke's text, the composer eschews settings of interpolated texts as arias and the customary Evangelist and Christ soli: everything is sung by choral forces.

op. 147 - C minor. Par SCHUMANN ROBERT. jeu de parties séparées, matériel d'orchestre complet . A mass setting by Robert Schumann? This is still likely to cause surprise among audiences – after all, Schumann is not generally viewed as a sacred composer. Indeed, his little-known late work, the Missa sacra, Op. 147, is a discovery not just for listeners but often for the performers themselves. The m…

Par GILL JOANNA. This work is a reflective setting of a popular blessing used regularly in both church services and within choral concerts. Scored for unaccompanied mixed choir, the four parts are often divided to create an eight-part texture. The main melodic interest is carried in the soprano line over a supporting line of six parts provided by the lower voices. Within this short setting a var…

1. Choir, 2. Choir, Organ. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. Version of 1736 (final version) Bach ’s St. Matthew Passion passed through several stages in its progress towards its final form, stages that today cannot be completely reconstructed.
