A Cantata for Soprano Solo, Chorus and Organ
This is a real find! A wonderful cantata which should have been wildly popular for years.
Colin Hand has created this excellent performing edition, adding a real organ part from Mendelssohn's orchestration. There are eight movements, each of modest length, and the vocal writing is gracious and approachable.
Lauda Sion is vintage Mendelssohn - big tunes and luscious harmonies - and is scored for four soloists, chorus and organ.
