Howard Goodall's Christmas Cantata brings together seven of the
composer's most renowned festive choral works to form a new,
inspiring narrative. It seeks to address the powerful universal
messages of the nativity story with the theme of mother and child
in search of refuge at the heart of each movement. The words and
music celebrate the joy of hope in overcoming hardship, fragile
circumstances and grief, a message ever more present in the world
today. Through Goodall's engaging and accessible style, this
cantata provides a stunning celebration of Christmas choral music
that you will return to year after year. The full score is for
soprano solo, SATB choir, organ and chamber orchestra, here the
vocal score includes a piano reduction for rehearsal. The entire
work lasts approximately 45 mins.
From the introductory: Spiritualism, and Its General Teachings.
Man, a thinking, reasoning, and morally responsible being, is the
crowning glory of God. He is furthermore a trinity in structure,
made up of the soul, of a spiritual and of an earthly body. The
soul, the conscious innermost of man, is a potentialized portion of
the deific life, incarnated in the material body for a more potent
individualization, and for necessary experiences in the realm of
matter. Death, just as natural in a ripe old age as birth, is the
severing of the co-partnership existing between the spiritual and
the earthly body. Man is naturally a religious being, and the seals
of his manhood are consciousness and intuition, reason and
aspiration. And further, man desires to live again; desires to meet
his friends in the higher life; desires to know and love them, and
with them progress through eternity.
Music, Education, and Religion: Intersections and Entanglements
explores the critical role that religion can play in formal and
informal music education. As in broader educational studies,
research in music education has tended to sidestep the religious
dimensions of teaching and learning, often reflecting common
assumptions of secularity in contemporary schooling in many parts
of the world. This book considers the ways in which the forces of
religion and belief construct and complicate the values and
practices of music education-including teacher education,
curriculum texts, and teaching repertoires. The contributors to
this volume embrace a range of perspectives from a variety of
disciplines, examining religious, agnostic, skeptical, and
atheistic points of view. Music, Education, and Religion is a
valuable resource for all music teachers and scholars in related
fields, interrogating the sociocultural and epistemological
underpinnings of music repertoires and global educational
practices.
