Of the 11 surviving settings of the Mass by Charpentier, the present work, the Messe de minuit, is without doubt one of the most popular. Although Charpentier's Parisian career is quite well documented, little is known about the genesis and first performance of the Messe de minuit. It is likely, however, that it was commissioned by the Jesuits of the church of Saint-Louis (today, Saint-Paul-Saint-Louis) for whom Charpentier had been working as maître de musique since 1687. The Messe de minuit belongs to the tradition of the parody-mass for which Charpentier adapted 10 noëls - whose titles are given in the autograph MS - to the text of the ordinary and the resulting music is fresh, charming and jubilant.

Songs from around the world. Arranged by Mark Bruce. This edition: separate part. Downloadable, Individual part. Schott Music - Digital #Q6447. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6447).

'The World Tour' has emerged from the practical work with a budding children's orchestra. The collection consists of both well-known songs and songs from the children's home countries. It is suitable as a first introduction into chamber music playing. By using different techniques (pizzicato, con sordino, solo and tutti), a colourful string orchestra setting is created which forms a beautiful sound image for a children's orchestra. To enable the children to grasp the melodic parts as songs, the song text has been added, whenever possible.
