Par HARVEY JONATHAN. Predominantly hushed and serene, Plainsongs for Peace and Light proved to be Jonathan Harvey’s final work. It sees Harvey re-examining the very fundamentals of his craft – superimposing lines of plainsong, relishing the simple clash of note againstnote and creating rich, otherworldly sonorities through an elaborate use of canon. Harvey was a composer who always embraced and so…

Kantate Zum 1. Advent. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. The opening chorus uses the first verse of the old plainsong hymn 'Veni redemptor gentium', which in the paraphrase by Martin Luther has become the most important Advent hymn of the Protestant Church. Bach introduces the traditional plainsong melody in the form of a French overture, here symbolizing the entry of the King of Heaven, thus creating an…

Par NOURSE NANCY. Psalm 126 is a reading heard most frequently at the time of harvest. It is also particularly appropriate for the second Sunday of Advent or the fifth Sunday of Lent. The vocal line is reminiscent of mediaeval plainsong and is sung nonmetrically, with the flute often serving as both the accompaniment, as well as providing refrains at the ends of phrases. Psalm 126 is a reading hea…

Par SCULTHORPE PETER. Sculthorpe uses the Plainsong Requiem Mass as the source material for this work for Solo Cello, using the music to reflect the words of the Latin text. This is a most interesting concept, particularly so as the timbral and expressive qualities of the cello seem appropriate for this type of work (or influenced-type of work, at least). The cello has a very rich and warm tonal q…
