Composed by Carlo Gesualso. Arranged by Eric Wilson. Concert,Renaissance. Score and parts. 14 pages. Woodrow Edition #5798361. Published by Woodrow Edition (A0.999423).

Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa, Musician and Murderer! That’s not a news headline (though it would be quite a good one) but the title of a book by composer Peter Warlock which I read avidly after first encountering the Italian composer in a lecture at the University of Liverpool in the 1980s. We were studying the Italian madrigal, which was not really my thing until our lecturer threw Moro Lasso into the mix. Its opening chords seemed so incongruous – unlike anything we had heard – and are as striking today as they must have been in 1611 when first published in Gesualdo’s 6th Book of Madrigals.

More or less immediately after that lecture I arranged the piece for the Seras Brass Quintet which I had helped form. In those days the brass quintet repertoire was limited, and certainly didn’t include anything by Gesualdo!

The arrangement really benefits from a church-like acoustic where you can make the most of the dramatic built-in silences. The tuba part lies quite high and is very playable on a trombone if need be. Even to modern ears there are some strange sounds and I trust that all the ‘wrong’ notes are Gesualdo’s rather than mine – do let me know if you think otherwise!

SKU: A0.930765

Composed by Asprilio Pacelli. Arranged by Andrew Schneider. Baroque,Christian,Classical,Renaissance,Sacred. Score and parts. 15 pages. Andrew Schneider #6519911. Published by Andrew Schneider (A0.930765).

The court of Sigismund III Vasa of Poland attracted quite a few Italian Renaissance masters interested in writing in an opulent style reminiscent of the polychoral stylings of Gabrieli. This motet is an especially peppy and epic display of rhythmic and timbral virtuosity paying collectively tribute to martyrs who disdained the rule of earthly princes and so earned a heavenly crown. This is a 6-voice motet arranged for seven instruments so as to allow for invertible counterpoint.

A glossary of the Polish expressive markings is available upon request; note that I have endeavoured to give some of the instruments a bit of a spicy rhythmic profile and render this score a bit more balletic, in the manner Stravinsky arranged Gesualdo madrigals.

Composed by Vincenzo Bertulosi. Arranged by Andrew Schneider. Baroque,Christian,Renaissance,Sacred. Score and parts. 12 pages. Andrew Schneider #6505089. Published by Andrew Schneider (A0.930764).

This motet by Vincenzo Bertulosi for the court of King Sigismund III Vasa of Poland showcases the development of the antiphonal late Renaissance concertato style across Europe before the Thirty Years' War made such opulent pieces impracticable to mount. I have arranged this 6-voice motet for 7 brass instruments (2.2.2.1) and have freely interwoven different lines and sought to interpret this piece in a balletic manner, like Stravinsky would in his Gesualdo arrangements.
