MISSA A CAPPELLA

Mixed Choir a cappella

Series: BH Large Choral
Publisher: Boosey and Hawkes
Voicing: SATB a cappella
Format: Softcover
Composer: Einojuhani Rautavaara

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.
