Product Description
This piece was originally written for vocal ensemble (Cantus
I, Cantus II, Altus, Tenor I, Tenor II, Basso) and is typical of Praetorius
flowing counterpoint and mellifluous harmonies. It would be a lovely addition
to a wedding or similar ceremony, or for a quiet meditative moment in a
religious service or concert program.
The notes are easy, making this piece an
excellent opportunity to focus on ensemble skills, such as balance and intonation.
The work is only about a minute and a half in length. You might want to
experiment with repeating the entire work, possibly with the top four voices
(Flutes 1 & 2, alto, bass 1) up an octave.
The tempo marking is only a guideline; do what feels right for your
ensemble. The contrabass part may be
covered by a third regular bass flute.
