Few baroque composers were ever able to create work as sunny as joyous as Vivaldi did in this beloved Gloria. The contrast of mood throughout the work as it moves through the drama of the Mass to its satisfying double final movement shows the composer at the height of his powers.Vivaldi composed this work in Venice in about 1715 during his fruitful time at the Ospedale della Piet . In his lifetime this priest composer and virtuoso Violinist achieved enormous musical success. Considering his great popularity in the modern era it is difficult to believe that public appreciation of his work declined after his death and that the Gloria languished undiscovered forcenturies. It wasn’t until 1957 that the restored work was heard again in its entirety. Since that time this moving and joyous Gloria has been recorded more than one hundred times and perennially appears on concert series around the world.

Antonio Vivaldi probably composed his famous Gloria in 1725. Although the exact circumstances of its origin remain a riddle it was definitely conceived as a self-contained concert piece rather than as part of a complete setting of the Mass.The compositional fabric the festive character of the outside movements and the predominance of the strings in the middle movements make this masterpiece of Venetian sacred music a natural choice for an arrangement for solo voices choir and organ. Rather than imitating the orchestral writing Martin Focke?s arrangement offers a self-contained version tailor-made for this combination of instruments thereby making a pinnacleof European church music accessible to the often more modest resources of today?s churches.Standard work of the oratorio repertoireSelf-contained version for solo voices (SSA) choir (SATB) and organHighly supportive easy-to-play organ partIdeal for use in church servicesDuration: c. 30 mins.The Bärenreiter Choir & Organ Series presents great choral works in arrangements for soloists choir and organ; no orchestra is needed.The original orchestral parts have been transcribed into easy-to-play organ reductions whereby the contemporary tradition of such arrangements has been taken into consideration.
