Mit großer Dankbarkeit blicke ich auf ein Dezennium beglückender Zusammenarbeit mit der Stiftskirche Banz zurück. Zehnmal in Folge war es mit vergönnt, an den Banzer Orgelkonzerten teilzunehmen. Gern nutze ich diesen Anlass, den Veranstaltern im Jahr des 300. Konsekrationsjubiläums mit einem eigenen Beitrag meinen Dank abzustatten. Die so entstandene Liturgische Suite berücksichtigt die katholische Messliturgie in zweierlei Hinsicht. Zum einen werden Lieder aus dem katholischen Gesangbuch Gotteslob verarbeitet. Zum anderen sind mit Präludium, Gabenbereitung, Kommunion und Nachspiel jene Stellen belegt, die eine freiere Gestaltung inner- wie außerhalb einzelner Festkreise gestatten. Das Nachspiel ist dem österlichen Jubel der Gottesmutter Maria gewidmet. Schließlich nutzt die Registrierung und Führung der Manuale die vielfältigen Möglichkeiten der großen Orgel der Banzer Stiftskirche in besonderer Weise. (Lothar Graap).

Bob Moore has done it again! If you have any of his previous liturgical meditations, suites, preludes, or miniatures, you’ll want to fill out your collection with this new set. These five pieces for solo instrument with piano accompaniment have a witting charm and graceful elegance to them. While they would be highly useful during various liturgical moments or as background music, instrumentalists and pianists alike will find them to be perfect programmatic pieces to keep nearby throughout the year. Another important feature is the flexibility—the repeats and endings provided allow for adaptation depending on time constraints. A separate instrument part is included in the collection, and a flute, oboe, violin, or any C instrument may be used.

During his short lifetime Max Reger (1873-1916) was a prolific composer with many of his best known works being composed for organ. The ten chorale preludes in this selection are from his set of Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op.135a composed as short voluntaries for liturgical use rather than for recitals in these arrangements Philip Sparke has kept this in mind and each prelude can be performed with minimal instrumentation for those occasions where a small band is needed. They also make great pieces for band warm-ups or studies in intonation, sound and balance.Max Reger (1873-1916) is de componist van 30 Koraalbewerkingen, op. 135a voor orgel. Hieruit stammen deze tien preludes. Eigenlijk waren ze bedoeld als vrij muzikaal intermezzo binnen de kerkelijke muziek. En ook met dit arrangementvoor blaasorkest houdt Philip Sparke rekening met dit oorspronkelijke doel. Hij maakte ze speelbaar voor een minimale bezetting zodat u ze ook met een klein ensemble tijdens de kerkdienst kunnen uitvoeren. Verder zijn ze ook bijzondergeschikt als opwarmstuk en als stem-, klank- of balansoefening. Bovendien kunt u ze als kleine suite gebruiken in een concertprogramma. Veelzijdig!Max Reger komponierte eine Fülle an Werken vieler Genres. Unter anderem schrieb er 30 kleine Vorspiele zu den gebräuchlichsten Chorälen für Orgel, die mehr als für den liturgischen Rahmen, denn als Vortragsstücke gedacht waren. Seine Blasorchesterbearbeitung dieser zehn Präludien machte Philip Sparke daher für eine minimale Besetzung spielbar, so dass sie auch Gottesdienst verwendet werden können. Außerdem eignen sie sich auch hervorragend als Aufwärmstücke, Stimm-, Klang- oder Balanceübungen oder in verschiedenen Zusammenstellungen als kleine Suiten für den Konzertgebrauch. Eine vielseitige Sammlung, die in keinem Repertoire fehlen sollte!Max Reger (1873-1916) a composé les 30 petits Préludes de choral pour orgue, op. 135a, dont sont extraits les dix préludes choisis pour cet arrangement pour orchestre d’harmonie. Philip Sparke est resté fidèle aux pièces originales. Le choix de l’instrumentation permet d’interpréter ces dix préludes avec une formation effectif réduit qui peut être amenée participer un office. Ces pièces peuvent également être utilisées pour effectuer une mise en lèvres ou pour travailler l’intonation, le son et l’équilibre entre les différents pupitres.Nella sua breve vita Max Reger (1873-1916) fu un compositore molto prolifico noto per le sue composizioni per organo. Le dieci corali arrangiate da Philip Sparke fanno parte de Thirty Short Chorale Preludes Op. 135a, composte per uso liturgico piuttosto che recitativo. Questo arrangiamento tiene conto del fatto che ogni preludio può essere eseguito con una strumentazione minima. Dieci pezzi ideali anche come riscaldamento, studio dell’intonazione e del suono.

In 2010 the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments granted a recognitio to The Revised Grail Psalms. This translation was prepared as a liturgical translation intended for use in the Roman Catholic Liturgy. Within a year of its publication, Christian leaders from groups beyond the Roman Catholic Communion expressed appreciation for certain aspects of The Revised Grail Psalms, particularly the poetic quality of the text and the sprung rhythm which facilitates recitation, chant, and musical settings of the texts. They further inquired if we might consider publishing another edition of The Revised Grail Psalms, focusing more directly on the original Hebrew while yet seeking a more inclusive final text of the sort preferred in the current worship of their respective communions. Thus The Ecumenical Grail Psalter came to be. Extracted from the Introduction to The Ecumenical Grail Psalter  Endorsements for The Ecumenical Grail Psalter “A lovely translation! The Ecumenical Grail Psalter retains the elegant simplicity, beauty, and rhythmic flow of earlier Grail Psalms. This makes it ideal for public reading and singing, as well as for individual devotional use. I applaud the inclusive language, and I hope it will be widely read and sung. It is a wonderful gift to the Church!†—J. Clinton McCann, Jr. Evangelical Professor of Biblical Interpretation Eden Theological Seminary “Lyrical in language with an ear for the musicality of words, this fresh revision of the Grail Psalter voices the longing, lament, and lavish praise contained in the Psalms. I especially appreciate the attentiveness to inclusive language, which invites women readers and prayers of these texts to feel more at home in this richly hued rhetorical landscape. The monks of Conception Abbey have offered a gift to the larger ecclesial family, further shaping our liturgical life through engagement with the Psalter. As a Baptist theologian and seminary president, I am deeply grateful.†—Molly T. Marshall President and Professor of Theology and Spiritual Formation Central Baptist Theological Seminary “A translation of the Psalms marked by noble simplicity, accessibility, freshness, and candor. These texts are beautifully singable—well poised for chanting and singing in a variety of cultural contexts. They are also well suited for devotional and liturgical reading, inviting worshipers into the world of the Psalms with vivid, uncluttered language. May this volume be widely received across Christian traditions.†—John D. Witvliet Calvin Institute of Christian Worship Calvin College and Calvin Theological Seminary.

Ariel Lazarus Guitarra Liturgia Two pieces based on music from the Spanish and Portuguese tradition. Contents: Jerusalem de Sefarad - Suite for Guitar Contrapunto Sefardi The composer writes: For many years I wanted to compose a piece for guitar which would inspire interested students to expand their repertoire in the direction of Jewish music. The most natural thing for me was to write a suite based on themes from the synagogue in which I grew up – the Spanish and Portuguese synagogue of Gibraltar. My beloved grandfather served all his life as hazzan (cantor) of this synagogue, and I always felt as a composer and educator that I had a special obligation to continue his tradition and pass it on to a new generation. In this composition, I let the guitar echo the piyyutim (semi-liturgical poems) that were part of my childhood: Adon Olam, Sh'charchoret, Achot K'tana, Yigdal, Borei ad Ana, all of which are sung in the Spanish and Portuguese tradition from Gibraltar to London, and from New York to Jerusalem. I let myself dream the piyyutim, take them apart and reconstruct them as a short suite for guitar, the results of which you are invited to hear here. As a conceptual idea for the suite, I choose to suggest about the cultural continuation between the Diaspora and the land of Israel by way of referencing the well-known melody of Naomi Shemer, which is also popular among the hazzanim.Dr. Ariel Lazarus is a unique voice among Israeli composer-performers today. Brought up in a family with Jewish musical roots both in Gibraltar and Westphalia, he began composing and playing the guitar in his teens, and has been committed to developing his own compositional language ever since, always maintaining an open dialogue with his traditions. Lazarus received his BMus and MMus degrees from Oklahoma City University in classical guitar performance and composition where he studied with American composer Dr. Edward Knight. He earned his PhD from Bar Ilan University, studying composition with Prof. Betty Olivero and Prof. Gideon Lewensohn and conducting research under the supervision of Prof. Edwin Seroussi from the Hebrew University. His symphonic works have been premiered by the Raanana Symphonette Orchestra, and his chamber works have been performed by various ensembles in the United States, Central Europe, Portugal, Gibraltar, Scandinavia and Israel. Lazarus performs regularly as Art Ambassador on behalf of the Israeli Ministry of Diaspora affairs Amiel BaKehila program. His solo album A Hebrew Capriccio was released by the German boutique label SmoothFactor and was awarded critical acclaim, among others, in Haaretz, and Neue Westfalishe. Dr. Lazarus is the musical director and co-founder of the Israeli Ladino Orchestra. His work with the orchestra has been recognized by the official Carta de España. He teaches at the Academic College for Education Givat Washington, and the Rimon School of Music. Lazarus’s work has been awarded by the Israeli Pais Art council and ACUM.

Antonio Caldara, with about 3,400 works to his credit, ranks among the most prolific composers of the Baroque era and of music history in general. From 1716 Caldara was employed as the Vice-Music Director at the Court of Vienna, where he quickly developed into the primary and favorite composer of the musically knowledgeable Emperor Karl VI. Caldara's festive setting of the sequence for Whitsun, Veni Sancte Spiritus, which may have been composed around 1725, is now made available for the first time in print. The catchy and compact piece is suited for concert performance and is also excellently suited for the liturgical context of Whitsun: during the Mass, for example, as entrance or exit music or as music for the offertory. Through similar scoring requirements Caldara's setting of the sequence can also be used with many compositions of the Ordinary without any additional effort. For most church choirs the tutti sections with Caldara's favored homophonic, yet effective vocal writing represent a grateful task. Score and part available separately - see item CA.2770200.

Seasons of Grace, Volume 5 features fourteen more intermediate level arrangements for the liturgical pianist. As with previous volumes of the series, Tate delights us with his take on many traditional hymns (including the lilting slane as well as an exciting multi-metric arrangement of I Sing The Mighty Power of God), chant melodies (such as in paradisum, beautifully paired with funeral songs by Liam Lawton and David Haas), seasonal pieces (such as a medley of Polish Christmas carols), and even a suite of Gospel favorites (including In The Garden, There Is Power In The Blood, and Blessed Assurance). Also featured are original tunes by Tate, including Open Our Eyes, O Lord, We Pray and two flexible interludes for those moments when you need a short, last minute instrumental piece during the liturgy. If you like the music of Jim Brickman, George Winston, and Jeanne Cotter, you will want to include Seasons of Grace Volume 5 in your CD and piano book collection today.
