Hymnes. Par PETTI A. / LAYCOCK G.. Since early Victorian times, music in church has lagged increasingly behind the developments in the secular field. The New Catholic Hymnal includes a number of new settings which are nearer the technique and spirit of the day than was hitherto customary. Whilst most congregations would baulk at contemporary dodecaphonic music, simple diatonic dissonance and other…

Johann Sebastian Bach opened the second year of his Leipzig church compositions on 11 June 1724 with a performance of the cantata 'O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort'. The work is based on a church hymn by Johann Rist that depicts, in riveting language, the terrors of the Last Judgment and the torments of Hell, followed by an admonition to live a life pleasing to God. The poem inspired Bach to write one of…

Hymnes. Par GREEN FRED PRATT. With commentary by Bernard Braley This book, published in 1982, contains the texts of 209 hymns and ballads of this well-loved Methodist hymnwriter who died in 2000 and tells many of the stories behind them. The book has proved useful - not only as a book of reference - but as a book of excellent devotional material for the everyday reader. Some may recall Fred's ''Hy…

Par HOWELLS HERBERT. Before me, careless lying is a fine example of the contrapuntal art of Herbert Howells (1892–1983), inspired by the work of the great English composers of the Renaissance period, those of the madrigal school in particular, but in its passionate sensibility essentially twentieth century. The composer wrote this partsong on Christmas Day 1918, and dedicated it to his friend the …

Here's a new series useful to fill plenty of solo and ensemble needs.

Each book includes a solo line and an ensemble line. Mix and match lines with different inst…

Große Credomesse. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Here, as also in his earlier 'Litte Credo Mass' KV 192, Mozart made use of a church music device which can be traced back in south-German and Austrian church music to the beginning of the 18th century: frequent repetition of the opening words of the 'Credo'. This presupposes that the setting of the words of the intonation 'Credo in unum Deum' as part …
