Travel back to Christmas Eve, 1818 and a small Austrian church nestled in the Alps . . . where the beloved carol Silent Night was born. Mice have made a shambles of the organ creating quite a problem for Pastor Joseph Mohr and Franz Gruber, the church organist. There's a happy ending, however, in this 16-minute musical, which is based on the true story of Silent Night. Six songs and an assortment of delightful characters comprise this easy to prepare and present musical, which was created to ensure success for children's choirs large or small. This new edition of what has become a classic musical also commemorates the 200th anniversary of the carol's birth. (16 minutes).

During his tenure under Pope Urban VIII Virgilio Mazzocchi was among the most renowned musicians of Rome. He directed the Cappella Giulia in St. Peters Basilica for 17 years. He also organized the musical activities at the court of the Pope's influential nephew, Francesco Barberini. The Psalmi Vespertini, Mazzocchi's most important sacred work, were published two years after his death. This collection contains two complete vesper cycles for double choir with a basso continuo accompaniment. At the conclusion of the first vesper cycle, in the predominately festive setting of the Magnificat, Mazzocchi displays his artistry in the old and new styles by combining contrapuntal choral sections with concertante passages. The new Carus edition of this work presents a most significant and impressive document of Roman church music in the first half of the 17th century.

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach composed his (Latin) Sanctus in E flat from 1768-1778, when he was the director of music for the churches of Hamburg. This short and solemn work for choir and orchestra was intended for the liturgy of Communion at Christmas, Easter and Pentecost.

It was believed to have been lost following the second world war, but was recently discovered by Professor Christoph Wolff in Kiev. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3350200.
