Composed by Sergei Rachmaninoff. Arranged by Nicholas Palmer. 20th Century,Christian,Classical,Religious,Sacred. Score. 2 pages. Nicholas D Palmer #959498. Published by Nicholas D Palmer (A0.1374928).Rachmaninov's beautiful All-night Vigil (aka "Songs of the Church") is rarely performed because of its level of difficulty, language, and length. The music is transcendent and perfectly suited for celebrations of the Presentation of the Lord (February 2), evening prayer, and funerals. This selection, No. 5 of 15 in the work, is taken from the 1920 English translation by Winfred Douglas and is well-suited as a solo piece. The choral parts were easily translated into an accompaniment on organ, although piano can be used. The movement is in its original key and is suited for a high tenor (the original solo called for in the work) or soprano. This arrangement is also available in G minor and E minor for lower voices. This piece would also work as a unison choir piece.
