Summary of This Score

This collection for choir emphasizes the practice of mixed voices by offering two formats particularly useful for everyday use: 3 mixed voices (soprano, alto, bass) and 4 mixed voices (SATB). The vocal distribution indications open the door to practical solutions when the ensemble is incomplete: some three-voice pieces can be sung by one female voice and two male voices, and the majority of four-voice pieces can be performed by three female voices and one male voice.

The content spans eras and aesthetics: Renaissance songs published by Pierre Attaingnant, canzonette, villanella, madrigal, and motet (Vecchi, Marenzio, Monteverdi, Bateson, Carissimi), then later works with Mozart (nocturne), Haydn (Psalms 31 and 69), Schumann, and a contemporary nod with Tom Johnson ("Wesley's Challenge"). The four-voice section further broadens the scope, from sacred music (Ingenieri, Anerio, Casciolini) to chorales by J.S. Bach, Brahms, not forgetting Gershwin, a "barber shop" song arranged by Jacques Petit, and a spiritual arranged by Marc Meyer. An ideal collection to work on cohesion, diction, and the color of each section while renewing the repertoire.
