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 of an ensemble composition, which for centuries had been intoned in plainsong by the priest, had become liturgically acceptable. It was only a small and syntactically logical step for the word 'Credo' to be repeated before the individual articles of belief, thus strengthening the declaration of faith. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Hautbois, 2 Clarinet

Tonalité : C-Dur - Kred 326. Par DITTERSDORF CARL DITTERS VON. Of the 19 Masses by Dittersdorf which have been handed down, the present Mass, which is being published for the first time, enjoyed a special popularity during the composer’s lifetime and it was even performed for the coronation of emperor Franz II in the Frankfurt Cathedral. This solemn, prestigious Mass shows evidence of choral movements in traditional contrapuntal church style as well solo parts with a modern, cantabile character. In addition, the Gloria includes a lengthy virtuosic violin solo, which also lends the work a concertante character [Dittersdorf was a professional violinist]. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Hautbois, 2 Clarinet

Features of the Barenreiter Urtext edition of Beethoven's Mass In C Major:Score with realisation of the Organ partBilingual Foreword (Eng/Ger) and Critical Commentary (Eng)Straight-forward Piano reductionFull score and performance material (BA9039) and Vocal score (BA9039-90) available for saleAmongst Beethoven’s sacred works are two settings of the Mass. The Mass In C Major was completed and premiered in 1807 and has been unjustly described as a preliminary step towards the great Missa solemnis. Yet it is a self-contained and for its time distinctly modernpiece of sacred music.Beethoven specialist Barry Cooper has drawn on a rich body of sources to suggests practical solutions to the work’s musical and interpretative problems. His in-depth study of the sources convinced him to include a fully realised Organ part in the score just as Beethoven envisioned it for the first printed edition. As stated in the original sources the parts for the soloists and choir are notated on joint staves to demonstrate that the soloists are also to sing the choral passages.This Barenreiter Urtext edition is rounded off with a foreword on the work’s genesis and a detailed critical commentary.

Standard choral work with a manageable reduced orchestration.A stylistically appropriate as well as tried and tested arrangement.Compatible with Vocal score H 2924-90.Dvo ák?s Requiem for soloists choir and orchestra is one of the highlights within the international choral repertoire. Now Bärenreiter is presenting this work in an arrangement by Joachim Linckelmann with chamber Orchestra based on the full score from the Complete Edition of the Works by Anton n Dvo ák.The arrangement dispenses with all the brass instruments except for a single Horn; all that remains of the Percussion arethe Timpani; the Organ has also been taken out. The cor anglais and Bass Clarinet parts can be replaced by an Oboe and Clarinet (ossia staves in score and parts).This arrangement which judiciously reduces the richness of Dvo ák?s original orchestration makes the work available to a broader range of performers outside professional circles.

Monteverdi’s opera “L’Orfeo” based on the legend of Thracian singer Orpheus and his love of Eurydice is a masterpiece of musical declamation and ornamentation. It was first performed during the 1607 carnevale in the “Palazzo Ducale” in Mantua.When an edition remains true to its sources this certainly does not mean that it is not also practical to use as is demonstrated in this Bärenreiter edition of Monteverdi’s “L’Orfeo”. Edited by Rinaldo Alessandrini the new publication follows the Bärenreiter edition of Monteverdi’s “Il ritorno d’Ulisse in patria”.Two contemporary prints of “L’Orfeo” from the years 1609 and 1615 have been passed down to us. Four copies of each of these prints still survive today in public libraries. The later print includes many corrections to the earlier edition and was accordingly used as the primary source for this Bärenreiter edition. However when solving musical problems the editor frequently follows the more coherent style of the earlier print. The numerous interesting variants not only between the two editions but also amongst the eight surviving copies are listed in the critical commentary.This edition of “L’Orfeo” offers in addition to Monteverdi’s somewhat sparse original figures also figures added to the bass line by the editor. The continuo player should however feel free to follow his own judgment. The notation has been when necessary adapted to suit modern practice for example with regard to the clefs. The sections that were originally written in “chiavetta” have been transposed a fifth lower. In the appendix these sections also appear in their original notation in facsimile as well as transposed a fourth lower.
