SATB: with String orchestraThe following is a compliation of responses to my inquiry for chorus/string orchestra repertoire. Thanks, everyone! Barbara Jones barbjonz(a)attbi.com --------- There's a previous compilation of choral pieces that can be performed with a string quartet, perhaps also with one or two other instruments, on the ChoralNet website. You'll find it by following this path: choralnet.org > Repertoire > Lists > Lists by Instrumentation > SATB with string quartet --------- My favorite would be Beethoven's "Elegishe Gesang." John M. Crowell Learn from the Past Sacramento Master Singers Live for Today Music Librarian Look to Tomorrow jcrowell(a)mastersingers.org Take a Nap This afternoon -------------------- There are many, many works, especially from earlier periods (composers Buxtehude, Bach, Mozart). I would suggest Schubert's "Mass in G" (strings & organ), and Telemann's "Laudate Jehovam" (2 violins & continuo). Also, early Mozart masses. The two pieces listed above are available for free at CPDL. Regards, Rafael Ornes Manager, CPDL ornes(a)cpdl.org http://www.cpdl.org ------------------------ There are so many good works, and lists, incl. on ChoralNet. One work you might consider is a Cantori New York favorite: Chris DeBlasio's THE BEST BELOVED. It's a very beautiful work for chorus and strings. There are of course a great many baroque and classical pieces, and there's no shortage of 20th c. works also. Mark Shapiro Cantori New York, Monmouth Civic Chorus, Mannes College of Music ---------------------------------------- Orchestra folks frequently use David Daniels's Handbook> as a reference for instrumentations and durations, and often as a source of ideas. Among the book's helpful appendices is one listing these works for chorus and strings: 15' or less - Buxtehude: Magnificat Purcell: Ode for St. Cecilia's Day (1683 & 1685 versions) Monteverdi: Laudate Dominum (Ps. 117) Vivaldi: Magnificat Pergolesi: Magnificat Haydn: Masses #1 (Missa brevis), 3 ("Rorati coeli desuper"), & 7 (Kleine Orgelmesse - Interestingly, Daniels does not indicate that it calls for an organ!) Mozart: Ave verum corpus / Inter natos mulierum, K.72 / Litaniae laurentanae, K.109 / Misericordias Domini, K.222 / Missa brevis, K.140 / Sancta Maria, K.273 Donizetti: Ave Maria Finzi: In terra pax 16'-30' - Vivaldi: Magnificat Bach: Cantatas #4 ("Christ lag in Todesbanden"), 153 ("Schau, lieber Gott, wie meine Feind"), & 196 ("Der Herr Denket an uns") Mozart: Missae brevis, K.49, K.192, K.194, & K.275 Schubert: Masses #2 ("Mass in G") & 4 Over 30' - Schütz: Historia der Auferstehung Jesu Christi Handel: Dixit Dominus Saint-Saëns: Oratorio de Noël Duration uncertain - Buxtehude: Das neugebor'ne Kindelein Happy hunting, Nick Jones Atlanta Symphony Orchestra ----------------------------------------------- Check out Daniels "Orchestral Music", published, I believe, by Scarecrow Press. It lists the scoring of every major orchestral piece, including works with chorus.

My suggestions: 1. "Born In Nazareth" (SATB, piano, strings - on the site as PDF for SATB with piano). 2. "Eichendorff-Zyklus" (new Edition - on the site for TTBB and strings). All songs you see on the page I´m able to arrange for SATB (or other) and strings. Further: You have suggestions about pieces which you would like to perform with chorus and strings? Please write me under info(a)compovista.com ! ---------------------------------------- Use MUSICA -- it is possible to do an advanced search where you specify the instrumentation you are looking for. There's a musica link on the ChoralNet web site. Also, the Schubert Mass in G is a good piece for community group and strings. There are lots of satisfying works for this combination. Good luck! Kathy Bowers St. Louis MO ------------------------------------ Hi, Barbara, My Seasons is a 10 minute work for SATB divisi connected with poetry reading. See description of it on my website. Put 'seasons' in the key word search box. I would be happy to send you a copy and cd if you send your mailing address. Have a joyous and heart-filled holiday season... Linda Spevacek lspevacek(a)cox.net www.lindaspevacek.com --------------------------------------- Buxtehude's "Das neugeborne Kindelein" Vaughan Williams' "Serenade to Music" (may have other instruments.. Pat Maimone Post CHapel West Point, NY -------------------------------------- From: Canticum(a)aol.com I have a lot of information in a data base on my computer. Are you interested in the standard four part string ensemble? There are many baroque works that use only two violins and continuo. That would be true of many of the Mozart mass settings as well. If you give me more specific information I will send some suggestions. Bob Sabourin Midland, MI ----------------------------------------------- There's at least a zillion pieces that fit this criterion. If you listed all of them, the compilation would overload Choralist, ha ha! Anyway, here's a great starting point: choralnet.org > Repertoire > Lists > by Instrumentation At least half of the orchestral music written in the Baroque is for strings only (Gibbons, Purcell, Monteverdi, Telemann, etc.); less so for Handel and Bach. Here are some specific pieces: Gibbons, This is the record of John Purcell, Ode for St Cecilia's Day Vivaldi, Gloria Vivaldi, Magnificat Handel Dixit Dominus Certain Bach cantatas such as 4, 153, 196 Pergolesi Magnificat (actually composed by Francesco Durante) Mozart's early masses or Ave Verum Corpus Haydn's early masses, such as the "Little Organ Mass" Schubert Mass in G Finzi, In terra pax Saint-Saens, Christmas Oratorio Buxtehude, Das neugeborne Kindelein >Is there a source where music is listed by performance forces >required--something in more detail than just "chorus and orchestra"? The ideal book for this is "Orchestral Music" by David Daniels. It gives exact orchestration and duration of thousands of pieces, plus commentaries on editions and other stuff. >I was told by my local music store that there is no further breakdown--is >that true? They were referring, of course, to the limitations on their own knowledge, and to that extent they were telling the truth. Some publishers' catalogs are particularly unhelpful. Ask Kalmus for a copy of their orchestral catalog, though; they have lots of pieces and it specifies the exact instrumentation of each one. -- Allen H Simon VP for Website Development ChoralNet Inc. http://choralnet.org ------------------------------------------------------------- Stephen Paulus has a great set of pieces called "Christmas Tidings" for choir and strings (and optional handbells on one movement) - the movements are very accessible (but fresh) arrangements of familiar Christmas Carols for both choir and orchestra and audience. Melissa ----------------------------------------- You might try Educational Music Service (www.emsmusic.com I think) They focus primarily on largeer choral works (over 5 minutes) and choral works with orchestra/strings/band/etc. They are very helpful and great to deal with. Josh ------------------------------------- I will be glad to send you a handout of short choral works with strings suitable for high school/college choruses, from an MENC workshop I did a while back. It might be useful. I just need your address. John Jost Director of Choral Activites Bradley University Peoria, IL 61625 --------------------------------------- I do a Masterworks Concert each year with my high school choirs. The premise is a major work with instrumental accompaniment as scored by the composer. I can't hire a full orchestra so we do works with small instrumental groups but still of good quality. For small groups of strings look at Bach Cantata #4 or any of Mozart's Missa brevis settings. Ted Williams, Vermilion OH. ------------------------------------------- Search around on the Choralnet website for repertoire. There you will find listings by instrumental and voicing. Also, I will forward a compilation to you from another Lister. Hope this all helps. Douglas Cox ---------------------------------------- I have a suite of pieces on American texts, THROUGH THE EYES OF A CHILD for chorus, strings, piano and percussion.

Duration is about seven minutes. Please let me know if I might have the Press send you a review score. Best, ~Karl ---windsongxl(a)yahoo.com ----------------------------------------- Off the top of my head, I have two pieces you may want to consider... 1. The very traditional Mozart "Ave Verum", which is scored for strings and keyboard. 2. "Dreams and Dances" by Gwyneth Walker. "Dreams and Dances" is a three-movement work on text of Lucille Clifton. The first movement is "Bones be Good", which has become a popular piece in the past six years or so, and the second and third movements ("Some dreams hang in the air" and "Let there be new flowering") are especially beautiful when performed with the string accompaniment. Some sections call for divisi among voice parts, and Ms. Walker uses modern and jazz harmonies very effectively. I think that a good community choir should be able to sing them well. The work was commissioned by Simsbury and Farmington High Schools in CT in the early 90s (I was at Farmington). I haven't heard them performed as a set since, but I highly recommend them.

They are off the beaten path, but are great re-discoveries. And one warning about the versions of Vaughan Williams's major works edited for strings and piano: the string parts are the same as in the original large version and the piano attempts to cover everything else, which someone described as "unworkable." I think that's it! Friends, Thanks to all who replied. Some wonderful ideas! Here is the original post. Please note that the file in the choralnet archives contains additional works, as noted in the original post. The additions are as they were sent, whether just for strings or not. Original post: The last compilation of works for mixed choir and strings in the archives is 6 years old. I'm interested in updating this. If anyone would like to add works that are not already on that post (or on the similar post for choir and string quartet), I'd be happy to compile. I've taken the old post and simplified it, alphabetized it, but I left it in three lists, one with timings and one without, and then all of Martin Banner's editions. I eliminated from the original compilation lots of pieces that more than strings when that info was listed. I also completely arbitrarily eliminated suggestions directly from composers of their own pieces and seasonal piece; those suggestions are still in the archives. I apologize for that!

I am looking for an extended SATB choral work (15-25 minutes) with String orchestra accompaniment by a Classical period composer appropriate for the fourth Sunday of Advent (Magnificat setting). Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.

Guy, You should look at the Finzi Magnificat for next year. No Gloria Patri, but wonderful, could use organ or parts on rental from Boosey. Best, Jaques...................
