Canticle s in Candlelight is a musical service of illumination that gradually fills the sanctuary or concert hall with music and light. With Scripture, narration, carols and candles, this compelling cantata tells the treasured story of Christ's birth. Filled with variety yet rooted in a traditional music vernacular, there are tasteful classical references in the arrangements as well as opportunities for congregational singing. From the hushed whisper of the “Candlelight Processional” to the festive arrangements of some of our most beloved carols, this work has something for everyone. An optional quiet ending is offered for churches wanting a more devotional closing.Includes: Prologue; Processional; Prepare and Celebrate; Advent Longing; Come, Long-Expected Jesus; Awake! Arise!

The hymntune â??Hyfrydolâ? is placed with the texts for â??Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesusâ? and â??Love Divine, All Loves Excellingâ? in this lovely arrangement. The setting is delightfully refreshing, flowing like a madrigal. The vocal lines are lyrical and melodic and work together effortlessly. This piece is especially appropriate for Advent, but will serve well for worship and concerts at any time of the year.

In this Magnificat, taken from a collection containing four-choir music for Vespers published in Venice in 1612, Viadana took an approach which was unusual at that time: the Magnificat is divided into 11 short movements like a cantata. The movements are structured with contrast clearly in mind. Viadana exploits not only the varied possibilities of the large vocal and instrumental forces to the full, but also presents a wide range of styles - from duet to four-choir tutti, from falsobordone to expressive madrigalian style. The work displays Viadana's knowledge as well as his admiration of the church music of Monteverdi in many ways. Viadana's printed edition of the Vespers of 1612 made a great impression on Michael Praetorius. Both Viadana's handling of the instruments and his treatment of the tutti choirs had a considerable influence on the works of Praetorius and other German masters. Score available separately - see item CA.1037100.
