Percussion Ensemble - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.597220 Composed by Charles Francois Gounod. Arranged by Flávio Régis Cunha. Concert,Contemporary,Romantic Period,Sacred,Standards. Score and parts. 43 pages. Flavio Regis Cunha #4592917. Published by Flavio Regis Cunha (A0.597220). Mors et vita is an oratorio in three parts by Charles Gounod premiered at the Birmingham Festival in 1885. It was conceived as a sequel to La rédemption (1882). The 1886 Paris premiere again featured Jean Baptiste Faure. Gounod considered this oratorio, and its predecessor La rédemption (1882) as his greatest achievements. This arrangement is designed for a double string orchestra, harp and percussion. The sonority obtained from this arrangement is unique in its conception and can be very well received by the public. Lacking original woodwinds and brasses from Gounod's score, the string orchestra will be an excellent choice for performing in concerts, recitals, funerals and church preludes.Flavio Regis Cunha is a pianist, conductor and composer from São Paulo - Brasil. He is currently finishing his doctorate at Mackenzie Presbyterian University where he works as conductor of the Mackenzie University Orchestra and resident composer.
