Gabriel Og Maria af John Høybye. Tekster af Britt G. Hallqvist. Juleoratorium for blandet kor (SATB) recitator soli fløjte orgel klaver og bas (trommer/percussion ad lib.). Korpartitur. Partitur: WH31081 Stemmesæt: WH31081A Programnote: I 1985 udkom Gabriel og Maria - 7 sange til jul for kor og rytmegruppe.Det var nyt på den tid at skrive kormusik - oven i købet til kirkelige tekster - der skulle akkompagneres af jazz/rock-musikere og hvor korsangerne skulle udfolde sig i stilarter som bossa samba og jazzvals. Men sangene blev hurtigt populære og allerede i de første år efter udgivelsen blev de en fast del af mange kors julerepertoire både herhjemme og i Skandinavien (i en svensk-sproget udgave) - ja helt til USA kom de (i en engelsk-sproget udgave).Tæt på 25 års jubilæet er det nu tid til en revideret ny-udgivelse.Selve sangene er der ikke lavet om på - men storformen er ændret således at værket nu fremstår som et lille juleoratorium med recitationer og orgel-mellemspil. En enkel ny sats er kommet til: Lovsangen Stjerner og vinde og skyer og de instrumentale mellemspil (soli for fløjte/sax piano eller bas) er udbygget på forskellig måde. Normalt er det instrumenterne der akkompagnerer koret. Men i de instrumentale mellemspil er rollerne byttet om. Nu er det koret der med riffs scatsang og forskellige akkordbaserede figurer 'akkompagnerer' de improviserende solister.Fløjten vil - med passende oktaveringer - kunne erstattes af saxofon (sopran og/eller alt). Det forudsætter dog at saxofonisten er i stand til - også - at spille med smuk 'klassisk' klang. Recitationsteksterne er taget fra Cecil Bødkers bog: Marias barn (Gyldendal).Orgelsatserne

La Lune Est Morte is a piece for SATB containing the score for Mixed voices or Equal voices on music by Georges Liferman. With lyrics by Jacques Mareuil this lyrical piece is quite melancholy: “Cry Pierrots Poets and Black cats the Moon is dead” being the main recurrent sentence. The chorus is sung by all voices while the verses lyrics are only sung by the Tenor and the Bass accompanied by a melody of “o” by the two other voices. Georges Liferman is a French composer and writer. His work includes French songs and French musicals mainly with very famous interpretationsin France by artists such as France Gall Juliette Gréco and Yves Montant.

Easter Cantata. Par PACHELBEL JOHANN. Christ lag in Todesbanden (Christ lay in grim death's prison) Easter Cantata In recent years the demand for making available a larger number of choral works by Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706) has made itself felt more strongly than ever before. Within the past few years the search for unpublished manuscripts of choral compositions written by Johann Pachelbel has been taken up again and not in vain. Approximately twenty instrumentally accompanied arias and thirty elaborate choral works intended for services of worship have recently been found. These date from the days when Pachelbel was an active church musician in Erfurt and Nuremberg and include compositionsof various categories, e. g. motets, cantatas, magnificats, and masses. The excellency of Pachelbel's choral works may be attributed in large part to the magnificence and splendour of their tonal character. They are unusually vocal, choral, and singable. In the very best sense of the term they are what the Germans call 'Gebrauchsmusik', that is to say, they are functional music written for specific use in the church, service. They are not music written for its own sake. Full score, performance material (BA2875), choral score (BA2875-91) available for sale/ Répertoire / SATB, 4 Parties Mixtes, 2 Violons, 3 VioleSBasson
