Par CAMPO REGIS. A la suite des reprises de mes Cris de Marseille par l'ensemble Musicatreize et par Les Jeunes Solistes, la scène nationale de Valenciennes, Le Phénix, m'a proposé d'écrire pour Dominique Visse et son ensemble Clément Janequin pour un concert en hommage à Claude Lejeune. La confrontation d'une création avec un univers vocal éloigné du nôtre est une démarche que j'affectionne depuis plusieurs années. L'ensemble vocal Jachet de Mantoue créa l'année dernière une messe de Josquin des Près dont nous est parvenu uniquement le Credo et que j'avais alors reconstruite. Puis l'ensemble vocal californien Chanticleer me commanda un hommage à Hildegarde von Bigen. J'avais auparavant composé un Laudate Dominum, interprété entre plusieurs antiennes, pour Pierre Cao et son ensemble Arsys Bourgogne. 'Une Puce j'ay dedans l'oreille, hélas !', poème à double sens et, comme les suivants, mis en musique par Claude Lejeune à la Renaissance, utilise une technique d'écriture en 'hochet'. Par des balancements mélodiques, les chanteurs imitent les sauts de ladite puce. 'Perdre rien plus je ne pourroy' nous parle du dépit amoureux. C'est un poème triste qui m'amène à utiliser un motif en tierces descendantes qui évoque Mondes cachés de mon Premier Livre pour piano et à travailler sur les hémioles (la division métrique par deux en ternaire, ou inversement la division rythmique par trois en binaire). Enfin, 'Je file mieux quand on me donne de quoy', d'esprit léger (très 'Kings' Singers'), sur un texte - encore une fois - à double sens, renoue avec la chanson à boire et convoque une écriture homophonique construite sur une toute petite ritournelle. L'ensemble Clément Janequin créera la version avec accompagnement d'orgue et luth. Ces trois chansons sont dédiées au grand maître Dominique Visse.

Nuits en armure est une suite pour un choeur de la chapelle qui reflète sur les thèmes de la légende arthurienne portée à verset par Alfred, Lord Tennyson dans idylles du roi. Chacun des quatre chansons prend la voix d'un personnage important des idylles : Merlin, Lancelot, Tristram et le roi Arthur, lui-même.Dans les derniers mots d'Arthur, King Arthur réside mortellement blessé sur le chaland de ses funérailles, rentré de son épée Excalibur à la Dame du lac. Il parle avec loyal Sir Bedivere, reflétant sur le sens de sa vie et de la quête d'idéaux avant sa barge voiles au large de Avilion, l'île où il est fabuleux pour récupérer et retourner à Camelot, un autre jour. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) A Cappella

The Novello Barbershop series offers unaccompanied arrangements of a variety of well-loved songs from the 1940s to the 1970s.Arranger Nicholas Hare has endeavoured to share the interest among all the voice parts but each singer should be aware at all times of who has the melody so that it is allowed to stand out. A discreet use of soloists is often appropriate.Blend and balance of the harmony is another vital element in successful performance of this music and vibrato should be kept in check so that the chords are clean and perfectly in tune. The various vocalisations (ah ooh mm etc.) may be considered as suggestions only and variedaccording to the performance conditions.Arranged specifically for male-voice groups (from as few as four voices in some numbers to a full choir) the songs are notated on two staves for easy Piano rehearsal.

Music for the perfect wedding day... religious service civil ceremony & reception-Whether it be a traditional white wedding in church or a contemporary civil ceremony in non-religious surroundings everyone wants their wedding day to be perfect. The pieces in the Confetti and Cake volume will help wedding couples and choirs alike choose the most appropriate and effective music for any occasion.There is music that caters for all tastes and abilities offering plenty of balance and variety. Pieces range from very simple to the somewhat more complex. Standard sacred repertoire (Bach Gounod Mozart Walford Davies etc.) is followed by some contemporary church anthems one (by Will Todd) written specially for this book; favourites such as theperennial Flower Duet appear alongside other enticing non-religious music; finally we have some secular romantic love songs (Jerome Kern Swingle numbers and even some G&S!) which cannot fail to capture the mood of the day. Sing these either at the ceremony itself or perhaps later at the reception.There are notes at the end of the book which provide very brief background information: eg texts (with translation where appropriate) dates and approximate timings so the ceremony can be planned meticulously.Whatever the circumstances and size of your choir there will be a something within this volume that will suit you. But more than that the versatility of the Concerts for Choirs series is such that it can be used as an invaluable resource for choral material whatever your requirements.
