Choralkantate. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. During Mendelssohns years of study with Zelter, the arrangement of chorales already played an important role, and he continued to be occupied with the protestant chorale throughout his symphonic and oratorical work. The break Bach’s works in connection with the reperformance of the St. Matthew Passion led to a series of cantatas based on well-known c…

Par BUXTEHUDE DIETRICH. This work has survived in an autograph, unfortunately undated, preserved in the Düben Collection. The cantata is a setting of Ecclesiasticus 50, verses 24–26. This composition is one of the most richly scored vocal compositions of Buxtehude. A ritornello, which includes a fanfare of trumpets, and a longer vocal section based on “Nun danket alle Gott” create the work’s struc…

That is why it was also surprising - not to say transgressive - for me that my work for 9 instruments for Ensemble MidtVest was completely untitled until the last bar.

Par SORENSON HEATHER. Commissioned in honor of those lost during COVID, Heather Sorenson's Requiem was written to bring hope and healing to all who have experienced loss.

Par FORBES JOANNA / L'ESTRANGE A.. An Irish Blessing is a choral setting for upper voices and piano or organ of the traditional Gaelic prayer which begins 'May the road rise to meet you'. Its gentle melody unfolds slowly, beginning in unison and building to a fuller choral texture with a descant in the third verse. The optional flute part adds a folk-like quality and, in addition to the wide dynam…
