Описание: A new addition to The Catholic Choirbook Series A book for building new choirs and improving the skills and repertoire of experienced choirs.
This is a new digest created from The Catholic Choirbook series, containing the most sung music from that book as used by Catholic, Anglican and other choirs from around the world.
Designed to be affordable and easy to hold, its price is less than the cost of a lunch in many countries
Much of the music is very singable for the average choir, some is a bit more challenging to encourage excellence in the singing of your choir.
Some of the music may be sung without accompaniment, but all pieces include accompaniments for a simple reason: Many choirs struggle to find enough singers to sing all the parts. Going back in history to the time of Palestrina, who wrote for choirs of many parts, 8 and more, we have learned that when a singer was missing, that part was played on the organ, or by another instrument. For example, music written for a double choir of 8 voices, could be sung by four voices, the second choir part being played on the organ, or by other wind instruments or strings.
Our motivation for this publication is simple. Choir directors are amazed, when their choirs sing pieces from this collection, using a substitute instrument or two to strengthen the voices, to have people from their congregation who sang that piece in College, want to join the choir.
Also, many of these works may be sung with only sopranos, the organ playing the other parts. You have to sing great music to be a great choir.
