Par CAMPO REGIS. A la suite des reprises de mes Cris de Marseille par l'ensemble Musicatreize et par Les Jeunes Solistes, la scène nationale de Valenciennes, Le Phénix, m'a proposé d'écrire pour Dominique Visse et son ensemble Clément Janequin pour un concert en hommage à Claude Lejeune. La confrontation d'une création avec un univers vocal éloigné du nôtre est une démarche que j'affectionne depui…

Par PART ARVO. It takes 75 minutes to relate the story of the Passion according to the Latin of St John's Gospel; Pärt uses solo singers for the roles of Pilate and Christ, and a group of four soloists (soprano, counter tenor, tenor and bass) for the Evangelist, together with a small chorus. Understatement is all: the instrumental accompaniment is confined to a quartet of woodwind and strings that…

It is created out of nothing and develops into sound. This choral improvisation on the kyrie from 'Messe à trois voix' by André Caplet gives the singers space to shape the piece themselves while nevertheless being self-contained. A short concert piece for experienced musicians. / Choeur SSAA A Cappella

Even for Ralph Vaughan Williams the prospect of two world premieres within 24 hours must have been something of a rarity. Such was the case however on the first two days of June 1953, when his now classic arrangement of The Old Hundredth Psalm was sung at the Coronation of Elizabeth II in Westminster Abbey, being preceded the evening before by the premiere of 'Silence and Music', fourth of ten par…

for four male voices. Par BRYARS GAVIN. Glorious Hill may be performed by a male choir. Text by Pico della Mirandola (1463-1497) from De Hominis Dignitate.

A Ukranian soprano, Krushelnyts (1872-1952) left home at the age of 21 to study voice in Italy, where she became a very successful opera performer and close friends with Puccini. She is often credited with saving Madama Butterfly from obscurity …

An iconic text and tune have been thoughtfully set by Shane Warby for the BYU Singers. A simple two-part opening eventually builds into a dynamic proclamation of 'I can sing because I'm free!? A statement of surety in a God who watches even the smallest creatures. / Choeur Mixte (SATB)

Oper in 3 Akten. Par HASSE JOHANN ADOLF. Hasse's Cleofide of 1731 can be regarded as the zenith of his creative output – not least of all because he integrated several of his greatest arias from earlier works into this opera. The theme from antiquity 'Alexander's conquests in India' was perfectly suited to flatter August the Strong, a rather unsuccessful commander-in-chief, who at that moment was …
