With Zwei lateinische Marienmotetten for mixed a cappella choir (SATB) and interlude for organ or string quintet, Andreas Pieper has created two gems of Marian devotion which are perfect for being used in church services. The two four-part chants pay homage to the Virgin Mary and refer to two different solemnities of the Roman Catholic Church celebrated in her honour. Whereas Assumpta est Maria is a motet for the Feast of the Assumption of Mary on 15 August, Benedicta es tu, virgo Maria refers to the Feast of the Immaculate Conception celebrated every year on 8 December. Both choral settings can be easily mastered by ambitious church choirs, and the interlude and postlude for organ or string quintet of Assumpta est Maria, the easier one of the two motets, can be easily performed even by amateur musicians.

This musical setting of a German poem by an unknown poet (English translation by Linda Godry) too has won second prize at the prestigious composition competition of the ChorVerband NRW in 2012, as has the musical setting of the same text for female choir by Alwin M. Schronen (product number C55504).In a mostly syllabic setting, the composer takes up the images of the poem and expresses them through musical means. As a result, the listener hears the dense and deeply felt devotion of the singing self to the one opposite to him, the - unattainable - moon.

Safe within their cocoons, butterflies only become vulnerable when they emerge to enchant the world with their beauty. Madama Butterfly has been breaking hearts for over a century with its tragic tale of an innocent Japanese girl who abandons her faith and her family to marry an American naval lieutenant. Giacomo Puccini created a dozen operas, many of them rooted in his fascination with exotic lands and foreign cultures. Inspired by a London performance of one-act play by American playwright David Belasco, the composer developed an emotionally charged musical score to accompany this tale of devotion, tradition, and sacrifice. The opera's most famous aria, Un bel dà vedremo (One beautiful day, we will see), in which the heroine professes her faith in her lover, ranks among the most popular works in the soprano repertoire. Dovunque al mondo (Throughout the world) characterizes Butterfly's American officer with a musical theme based on The Star Spangled Banner. Other highlights include the endings of each of the three acts: the extended love duet Vogliatemi bene (Love me, please.); the wordless beauty of Coro a bocca chiusa, (Humming Chorus); and the climactic aria Con onor muore (To die with honor). This authoritative 1906 edition of one the world's most beloved operas features the original Italian lyrics.

Matt Schinske's new book, I Love to Tell the Story, is a storehouse of musical reflection, testimony, and praise. Beautiful harmonies, majestic melodies, and gentle contemporary grooves permeate each of these arrangements. Although the book does contain some big moments, it will be especially useful for quieter times of contemplation in public worship, and moments of devotion at home.
