Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Felix Mendelssohn’s oratorio Elijah caused a sensation at its world première performance, sung in English, in Birmingham UK in August 1846. The huge forces marshalled for the occasion delighted the audience, who demanded no fewer than eight encores and loudly acclaimed the composer despite an injunction to observe the solemnity of the occasion by refraining from applause. Elijah has been an essential repertoire work for choral societies ever since. Published on the 175th anniversary of that famous premiere, Edition Peters is proud to present a new English-language Urtext edition of the vocal score containing the original libretto by William Bartholomew. Edited and with a preface by the highly respected musicologist Klaus Burmeister, the edition also includes a foreword ‘Mendelssohn and Birmingham’ by Simon Halsey, one of the world’s foremost choral directors (Chorus Director City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra Choruses; Artistic Director, Orfeó Català Choirs and Artistic Adviser, Palau de la Música, Barcelona; Choral Director, London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus; Artistic Director, Berliner Philharmoniker ‘Vokalhelden’ Programme). The edition complements and is designed to be used in conjunction with the existing German/English full score (EP11345) and orchestral parts. An associated German language vocal score is also available (EP11347). Edition Peters Vocal Scores are the choice of the world’s leading choirs and chorus masters. They are practical, reliable, high-quality editions containing expert piano reductions. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Solistes, Choeur et Orchestre

The Romantic composer Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-1847) has been highly regarded in Britain from the time of his first visit in 1829. The highlight of his career came in 1846 when he was commissioned to write the oratorio Elijah for the Birmingham Festival. It remained hugely popular for over eight decades being performed at the Proms every year until 1930. It draws heavily on influences from Bach and Handel both of whom Mendelssohn admired. O Rest In The Lord is an aria from the second act of the oratorio sung by an Angel to Elijah. It is scored for Alto or Contralto Voice with Piano accompaniment.

2 Fassungen. Par MENDELSSOHN-BARTHOLDY FELIX. Formerly one of Mendelssohn's most popular sacred compositions, especially during the Victorian period, the anthem 'Hör mein Bitten' has been overlooked in more recent times in favor of his larger works. He conceived his anthem in four linked parts. The numerous alternations between the solo voice an chorus in the score bring to mind the traditional English verse anthem, though the exchanges here seem more tied to the text rather than to a preconceived formal scheme./ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte (SATB) et Orchestre

German Romanticism (Chefs-d'oeuvre du romantisme allemand) rassemble un choix de morceaux signés des plus grands compositeurs de ce style, parmi lesquels figure - en termes d'histoire de la musique - l'Autrichien Franz Schubert. Avec Carl Maria von Weber, il représente les débuts du romantisme, tandis que Felix Mendelssohn et Robert Schumann appartiennent à l'apogée de la période romantique. Richard Wagner, Carl Reinecke et Johannes Brahms représentent la fin du XIXe siècle.Sur le compact disc inclus, vous trouverez deux versions de chaque pièce : une version intégrale et une version où ne subsiste que laccompagnement. / Flûte Et Piano

Mendelssohn particularly loved Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream having read it with his sister from childhood. His incidental music for the play ranks among the best of its genre skillfully generating the spirit of each of the characters establishing ambiences for the various scenes and complement Shakespeare’s own drama. Mendelssohn’s music for this play is best known for the famous Wedding March though the work contains an array of beautiful music. The instrumental movements are frequently performed as an Orchestral suite or as stand-alone pieces.In spite of its title You Spotted Snakes is a lively lullabye sung to Titania in Act II. It is during this sleep thatOberon enchants Titania and all the rest of the action unfolds. You Spotted Snakes is scored for solo Voices SA with Voices SSAA and Piano accompaniment.

The motets have both German and English texts and are adapted for an 8-part choir. Mendelssohn composed these motets during the mid-1840's for the Cathedral Choir of Berlin. The text of each was chosen with a particular church season or holy day in mind but most are suitable for more general use. They are meant to be sung unaccompanied. The editorial keyboard reduction printed below the vocal parts is intended only as a rehearsal aid although it will serve as a basis for a suitable organ accompaniment if needed.
