For SSA and piano Our Voice sets the poem 'Murmuration' by contemporary poet Eleanor Stewart-Pointing, which explores the relationship between the human voice and the sounds and music of the natural world. The piano writing gives the piece an energetic, jazzy feel, while the voice parts are sustained and intuitive.

Text selected from the Requiem Mass, D.H. Lawrence, Percy Bysshe Shelley and the Old Testament
First performance 3rd December 2003 at St. Martin-in-the-Fields
Subsequent revisions have been small, mainly consisting of a brand new Benedictus (to replace one which, in the original performance, had beeen borrowed from a liturgical setting of the Mass), the expansion of the Dies Irae and the creation of a bigger orchestration, as an alternative to the chamber scoring, to make the most of the forces available at the second performance, in St. Petersburg.

The second volume in the series Canti con flauto features six songs from the 19th century for high voice, flute and piano in a new critical edition. The pieces, some of which are virtuosic, offer an impressive insight into the varied repertoire for this scoring. The selection includes works with German, French, and English texts. Three of the songs originally contained two languages. In the works by Ch. G. Belcke, A. Terschak, H. R. Bishop, and S. Laville the flute imitates bird song. The compositions by J. H. Altes and A. M. Panseron are also based on contemporary texts about nature and love. Together with Canti con flauto I (Carus 17.201), this volume enables performers to rediscover this highly effective, but unjustly forgotten repertoire.

America is aging. Some of our most faithful and dedicated members are not with us every Sunday. They may have moved to a retirement community or may be confined at home, and yet they are still vital members of our parish communities. With Hearts and Voices helps to bridge this gap in our Sunday assemblies with the songs and prayers our senior parishioners hold dear. This prayer book is a welcome resource for retirement and nursing homes, hospitals, and especially ministers of care. Jerry Galipeau has compiled and composed prayers of the heart, home, and church to enable our ministers of the sick to do more than distribute the Holy Eucharist. They can bring our worship to the homebound and provide a resource one can return to again and again. The more than 80 classic Catholic hymns and songs are those your people have taken into their hearts and made their own. Each is supported by a supplemental recording, recorded in age-appropriate keys and enhanced by a four-part choir. Features: ‚ Convenient 7in. x 10in. size with clean white pages ‚ Over 80 classic Catholic hymns and songs ‚ Large 14-point type without musical scoring, easier to read and participate ‚ Large collection of personal and devotional prayers ‚ Prayers for before and after the reception of communion ‚ Communal prayers like the Way of the Cross and the Rosary.

Transcription for choir (original scoring: voice, piano). Musorgsky's lied Ich wollt, meine Schmerzen ergossen (I fain would outpour all my sorrows) is among the few compositions for which he set a German text by Heinrich Heine. Since the melody and accompaniment move within a range which in early music was designated as Hohe Chiavett (clefs in high register), I decided to employ a fivepart women's choir. (Gottwald).

Carl Friedrich Christian Fasch's Mass in 16 parts is remarkable for more than its unusual scoring. Inspired by the Italian church music style of Orazio Benevoli, it was composed in 1783 for the Berliner Sing-Akademie, and revised by Fasch several times throughout his life in order to adapt the score to the vocal capabilities of his ensemble. The composer destroyed all earlier compositions, which probably contributed to the legendary fame which this mass has enjoyed since the 19th century. The mass was, however, only published in 1839 - around four decades after Fasch's death. The present edition is based on the version contained in the first printed edition. In addition to modern music notation, extensive performance materials (two choral scores, separate organ part) facilitate the rehearsal of this challenging work. Score available separately - see item CA.2708300.
