Gaudete! Christus est natus

Summerly Jeremy (Editor). Par SUMMERLY JEREMY. Une fascinante collection explorer les richesses musicales d'une période plus colorée, du moyen âge. Reflétant l'atmosphère d'une époque où la maladie et la mort subite ont été contrebalancés par la foi et ' joie de vivre ', ce volume contraste sacrés paramètres tels que le toujours populaire ' natus est Gaudete Christus ' et inédites précédemment ' Jesu dulcis memoria ' avec des classiques laïques médiévales comme ' Sumer est icumen dans ', ' Agincourt Carol ' et le Passetime célébration avec bonne compagnie. / Date parution : 2000-07-20/ Recueil / SATB

Duets For Two Acoustic Guitars-The Christmas season has always been special to me. It is a season that has crystallized the hopes aspirations and faith of millions of people through the centuries. The amount of music written for Christmas is monumental.This book contains 14 scores from my Christmas Guitar Portraits recording. I selected various genres dear to me.First there are selections from the early American sacred song tradition. The Babe of Bethlehem Cherry Tree Carol A Star in the East The Shepherd's Star A Virgin Unspotted and I Wonder As I Wander all are from this rich heritage.I also picked a number of carols from theOld English genre. Away In The Manger Green Grow'th the Holly and What Child is This are included.Then there are the Christmas favourites. In the Bleak Mid-winter and a medley ofBaloo Lammy; The First Noel and Silent Night make any Christmas complete. Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence is one of my favourite Advent hymns. Gaudete Christus est natus is arousing carol dating back many centuries.Finally I included two originals. Lullay My Liking is an ancient carol text. Many composers over the centuries have written melodies to these lyrics most notably GustavHolst. I could not resist the temptation so the melody here is original. Finally Christmas Prayer is a new composition. I have always wanted to compose and arrange music designed to bring the Plectrum or Flatpick Guitarto the concert stage. These arrangements were written with that in mind.
