Chorale for Strings

Henry Purcell (1659-1695) held numerous appointments at the Royal Court and Westminster Abbey and is considered by many to be the greatest ever English-born composer. His prolific work covered all fields: orchestral ecclesiastical operatic theatrical incidental and chamber music were all enriched by his output. Written in 1683 Welcome To All The Pleasure (Z339) is the first of the three Odes that Purcell wrote for St Cecilia's Day. It was commissioned by the London Music Society for their first festival and sets a poem by Christopher Fishburn. It is scored for SATB Chorus; Alto Tenor and Bass soloists; and Strings.

SSAATTBB with Piano and String Quartet-Inspired by the grace and passion of a medieval poem this extended work offers intense dramatic exchanges between choir piano and string quartet. Sentiments of stillness and peace are beautifully portrayed making this a memorable work for both singers and audience!Also available:Vocal Score: HL08501791Strings Quartet Score/Parts: HL08501825

Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. Haydn's delightful Missa Brevis in F was both one of his earliest and latest works: he originally scored it for soloists, choir and strings, and returned to it at the end of his life to add wind parts. Either version may be performed using this new, authoritative edition, prepared by the Haydn scholar Denis McCaldin. / Niveau : Elémentaire / Répertoire / Chorale
