Choral Choir (SATB divisi) - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1211209 Composed by Ivo Antognini. A Cappella,Contemporary,Latin,Sacred. Octavo. 24 pages. Ivo Antognini #808911. Published by Ivo Antognini (A0.1211209). In this Trinity Service (2021) I used the text of the Magnificat as if it were the storyboard of a film. I tried to describe in the utmost detail the emotion the words conveyed to me and the images they suggested. In this composition I have used word-painting, attempting to colour as many words, phrases and situations as possible; hence the score is full of expression markings such as ‘majestic’, ‘with vigour’, ‘lively’, ‘intense’, ‘with affection’ and ‘with verve’. The result is a piece that changes texture rather quickly, and its noble opening theme (‘My soul doth magnify the Lord’) returns only once in abbreviated form (‘He hath filled the hungry with good things’). The following Nunc dimittis has a much more meditative and intimate character with a sparser texture. There are some references to the themes presented in the Magnificat. A motif from the Magnificat, ‘Glory be to the Father, and to the Son’, recurs in almost the same form towards the close of the Nunc dimittis, but in a quieter vein and in 4 rather than the 43 of the Magnificat. The Magnificat and the Nunc dimittis may be performed individually.

Published by Gabriel Ruiz-Bernal (A0.893948). The first movement Magnificat anima mea Dominum (My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord) builds its thematic material directly from the original gregorian chant.  It starts with a broad Magnificat statement by the choir, continued by an intimate call from the soprano soloist.

Mixed choir (SSAATTBB) a cappella - advanced - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q46995 Composed by Magdalena Zimmermann. This edition: choral score. Church service. Schott Chamber Choir. Downloadable, Choral score. Duration 6 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q46995. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q46995). Latin.Magnificat by Magdalena Zimmermann for mixed choir (SSAATTBB) plays with harmony, rhythm and dynamics. The unexpected continuation of melodies by the voices, combined with shifted rhythms, engages the audience's attention until the last bar and results in a rich sound. With its soft and gentle ending, Magnificat as a prayer of Mary exudes, at the same time, a sense of calmness and gentleness. The work is rhythmically and harmonically demanding, which is why the singers need to be steady keeping beat and intonation. Once Magnificat has been rehearsed, it is suitable for concerts as well as Sunday services.

Mixed choir (SATB) - Digital Download SKU: S9.Q52527 Motet for unaccompanied voices (SATB). Composed by Julian Anderson. This edition: choral score. Choral Music of Our Time. Downloadable, choral score. Duration 10 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q52527. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q52527). Latin.Magnificat is a tribute to the unaccompanied motets of favourite composers from several eras – in particular those of Dufay, the Eton Choirbook, Robert Carver, Lassus and Bach. The work is therefore full of contrast in texture, harmony, mood and pacing, and exploits the resources of unaccompanied chorus in a manner not only analogous to those already mentioned but also to ensemble or orchestral writing. Naturally – given the sentiments of the text – the mood is predominantly joyful and exuberant; but the darker implications of certain phrases in the text are not ignored. Towards the end there is a big choral explosion on one of the traditional plainsong chants for the Magnificat, before the work subsides into a coda of calm serenity. Magnificat was commissioned by the ORA choir. It is dedicated to the French composer Betsy Jolas, in celebration of her 90th birthday, and in equal celebration of our mutual love of many choral composers mentioned above.

Choral Choir (SATB) - Digital Download SKU: A0.885587 Composed by Michael E. Ekbladh. Christian,Contemporary,Sacred,Spiritual. Octavo. 24 pages. Michael E. Ekbladh #62385. Published by Michael E. Ekbladh (A0.885587). The Magnificat or Canticle of Mary is one of three canticles contained in the Gospel of Luke and serves in many ways as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. Along with the Canticle of Zachary (Benedictus) and the Canticle of Simeon (Nunc dimittis) the Magnificat is an expression of joy and thanksgiving and fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. Magnificat is in many ways a conversation between two women which encompasses the full range of emotions; from exaltation and awe to somber reflection. The Full score and Brass parts are sold separately (MEE1000FS) Scored for horn, 3 trumpets, 2 trombones, tuba, timpani, and percussion.
