for soprano soloist, mixed choir, and orchestra or ensemble (with
organ) This is one of the best-loved and most widely performed
choral works of the twentieth century. The texts (in Latin and
English) are from the Missa pro Defunctis, the Book of Common
Prayer, and the Psalms. The seven sections form an arch-like
meditation on the themes of life and death: prayers on behalf of
all humanity, psalms, personal prayers to Christ, and in the
central Sanctus an affirmation of divine glory. The full scores
have been edited and engraved by the composer himself and are
presented in handsome, cloth-bound editions. Vocal and orchestral
material is available on hire.

The first large-scale study of the music of Herbert Howells,
prodigiously gifted musician and favourite student of the
notoriously hard-to-please Sir Charles Villiers Stanford. Herbert
Howells (1892-1983) was a prodigiously gifted musician and the
favourite student of the notoriously hard-to-please Sir Charles
Villiers Stanford. Throughout his long life, he was one of the
country's most prominent composers, writing extensively in all
genres except the symphony and opera. Yet today he is known mostly
for his church music, and there is as yet relatively little serious
study of his work. This book is the first large-scale study of
Howells's music, affording both detailed consideration of
individual works and a broad survey of general characteristics and
issues. Its coverage is wide-ranging, addressing all aspects of the
composer's prolific output and probing many of the issues that it
raises. The essays are gathered in five sections: Howells the
Stylist examines one of the most striking aspect of the composer's
music, its strongly characterised personal voice; Howells the
VocalComposer addresses both his well-known contribution to church
music and his less familiar, but also important, contribution to
the genre of solo song; Howells the Instrumental Composer shows
that he was no less accomplished for his work in genres without
words, for which, in fact, he first made his name; Howells the
Modern considers the composer's rather overlooked contribution to
the development of a modern voice for British music; and Howells in
Mourning explores the important impact of his son's death on his
life and work. The composer that emerges from these studies is a
complex figure: technically fluent but prone to revision and
self-doubt; innovative but also conservative; a composer with an
improvisational sense of flow who had a firm grasp of musical form;
an exponent of British musical style who owed as much to
continental influence as to his national heritage. This volume,
comprising a collection of outstanding essays by established
writers and emergent scholars, opens up the range of Howells's
achievement to a wider audience, both professional and amateur.

This collection gathers together nearly sixty of the finest examples of the secular choral repertoire into one volume. Due space is given to the magnificent sixteenth century madrigals of England and Italy, with favorite works by Gibbons and Morley placed alongside less familiar selections by Lassus, Marenzio, and Weelkes. German and French pieces are also represented, for example, with Passereau's ever-popular Il est bel est bon. Works by Haydn and Schubert lead to the nineteenth century repertoire, which includes Brahms's lovely Nachtwache, from Five Songs, Op. 104, and Pearsall's exquisite Lay a Garland. The survey is completed by Debussy's Trois Chansons de Charles D'Orleans and examples of the glorious outpouring of English Romantic partsongs, with works by Elgar, Parry, Stanford, Britten, Finzi, and Vaughan Williams. Ranging from the late fifteenth to the twentieth century, and spanning all major European countries, this is a masterly survey suitable for all choirs. Clifford Bartlett has prepared completely new editions of all pre-twentieth century pieces, going back to the earliest and most reliable manuscript or printed sources. English translations are provided to aid understanding, with playable keyboard reductions in every case.
for soprano and baritone soloists, SATB chorus, and the composer's
original chamber instrumentation This edition presents Faure's
masterpiece in a form which accords with his original intention
that it should be a liturgical Requiem with accompaniment of organ
and chamber ensemble. The 1893 version is an expansion of Faure's
original, prepared by the composer for a performance at the Church
of the Madeleine in Paris and containing two additional movements,
the Offertoire and the Libera me. In contrast to the fully
orchestrated version that was published in 1900, this edition
preserves the original chamber instrumentation, and it also
contains a full English translation by John Rutter. Complete
orchestral and vocal material is available on hire/rental, and the
vocal score, full score, and parts are also available on sale.

texts and styles, this anthology is ideal for working church choirs
