Product Description

The text to this new SSA setting is by Peter Abelard, the medieval French scholastic philosopher, theologian and logician. The setting gives opportunities for soprano and alto solos though they can be sung tutti if more appropriate. The keyboard part is essential though there are two a cappella sections in the arrangement. The vocal parts all lie easily within average range. The keyboard part, with its plodding bass line (which may be doubled on double bass if required) gives the impression of the slow walk of Jesus to the Cross. This is a melancholy, reflective arrangement. Other SSA titles in this series of three Easter canticles are My Song is Love Unknown (Text by Samuel Crossman 1624-1683) and A Time to Watch, A time to Pray (Text by John Mason Neale 1818-1866. In the audio sample, soprano 1 is played by the flute, soprano 2 by the oboe and alto by the clarinet.
