Introducing MS Choir to Renaissance MusicDate: March 6, 2009
Hello Listers, I have a small but capable middle school girl's choir, and want to find a piece that will help introduce them to a cappella Renaissance repertoire (not even necessarily for performance, just to try it out). Something like the "Byrd" (anonymous...attributed to, whatever) Non, Nobis Domine, but for 2 part women's voices, preferably even ranges-- my altos aren't quite renaissance altos... I have a collection of 2-part motets by di Lasso (Cantiones duarum vocum), but I am looking for something a little easier, that perhaps requires a little less vocal gymnastics. Suggestions? Thank you! Katie Bank Sea Crest School Half Moon Bay, CA katherine.bank(a)gmail.com or kbank(a)seacrestschool.org -- Katherine Bank katherine.bank(a)gmail.com
