SKU: HL.48022858
Mixed Choir a cappella. Composed by Einojuhani Rautavaara. BH Large Choral. Classical, Contemporary, General Worship, Sacred. Softcover. 60 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M060125836. Published by Boosey & Hawkes (HL.48022858).ISBN 9780851628264. UPC: 884088945107. 9.0x12.0x0.201 inches.
Jointly commissioned in 2011 by four choirs around the world (Netherlands, Australia, England and Sweden), this large-scale choral work sets the words of all six parts of the ordinary of the Mass (the “Credo” was composed in 1972). The characteristic rich, soothing harmonies, beautifully-shaped, sometimes haunting melodies and variety of texture create an evocative and devotional work, challenging in places but ultimately fulfilling for both performers and audience. Contents: Kyrie • Gloria • Credo • Sanctus • Benedictus • Agnus Dei.
