Choral Choir (Mixed) - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1014330 Composed by Michael A. McKay. A Cappella,Contemporary. Octavo. 22 pages. Michael A. McKay #6088247. Published by Michael A. McKay (A0.1014330). Miserere Mei, Deus is a setting of Psalm 51 for a cappella choir, but it is no motet. It is an expressionistic piece in the horror genre, at times creepy and unsettling, at times dark and violent; it is extremely dramatic.The piece was commissioned for a concert commemorating the late-Renaissance composer Carlo Gesualdo. In it, Gesualdo implores God to have mercy on him for his murdering his wife and her lover in flagrante. He recalls the brutal slaughter, recreated in operatic Sprechstimme by half of the choir, while the other half wails and moans, but as he begs for forgiveness, his own words to his wife come back to haunt him: Pieta?! Non avra la mia pieta! (Mercy?! You will have no mercy from me!). He whips himself furiously and sinks to the floor exhausted, murmuring the groans for forgiveness that opened the work. It is left unresolved whether he has received forgiveness. .

Published by Wilian Dolfini (A0.954842). This, perhaps, is one of the best-known pieces by Gesualdo.

Instrumental Solo,Lute - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1486410 Composed by Mark Rimple. Classical,Contemporary. Individual part. 9 pages. Mark Rimple (Nuova Corda Music) #1063473. Published by Mark Rimple (Nuova Corda Music) (A0.1486410). Disorders is written for 14-course archlute in G.  The playing style should come from historical techniques rather than the guitar world.  The first movement refers to Timotheus of Miletus, who championed new-fangled sound and added a 7th string to his Lyre, offending the musicians of ancient Greece.The second movement is based on a story of Don Carlo Gesualdo, Prince of Venosa, who was said by a spy from Ferrara to spend many hours playing his lute and grimacing wildly for his circle of friends.The final movement is a reference to the music of the spheres, but rather than the Pythagorean consonances, prime numbers rule this artificial world.
