Par GOUNOD CHARLES. The modal character of this piece, with some unexpected harmonic moments, underscores the sentiments of the beginning of Holy Week. Most of the choral writing is two part (ST/AB), breaking into four parts occasionally. Organ writing has nice independent moments, including the use of a solo reed stop, but also supports the choir./ Répertoire / Piano

Par SZYMANOWSKI KARL. Unlike the works Karol Szymanowski composed during the first two decades of the 20th century, his Stabat Mater could only have been written in a country with Slavic culture. Drawing on his musical roots and mother tongue, he wrote a transparent score for soloists, mixed choir and orchestra. It is all fascinatingly simple. The melodies consist of minor and major seconds and th…

Over the Rainbow is a standard that has become forever associated with its most famous interpreter, Judy Garland.

The song would also do something similar for Eva Cassidy whose 1992 version brought her posthumous fame almost a decade later. A…
