Sacred Vocal Ensemble Music - Mixed Choir Voicing

(Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music). A moto perpetuo showpiece, Chatterbox! was commissioned by Joo Yeon Sir for performance in the Young Artist Series at St John Smith Square, London, in May 2016. The incessant babble implied by the title is aptly portrayed by the violin's spiccato bowing and chromatic figuration, as set against the boogie-woogie-style piano part. To add to the effect a metronome (set to 140 beats per minute) may be optionally be added. Alternative accompaniment for string orchestra is available on hire from Boosey & Hawkes.

Featuring a grand composition for choir, Karl Jenkins' work is commissioned by the Really Big Chorus and premiered in July 2010 at the Royal Albert Hall. The four-movement piece sets the traditional Latin text "Gloria in excelsis Deo" to music, incorporating Psalm 150 with alternating Latin and Hebrew texts. This work follows Jenkins' earlier compositions, including Te Deum and Requiem. The edition includes a complete keyboard reduction for rehearsal purposes, enhancing its accessibility for performers.

The collection features works by composer Karl Jenkins, known for "Adiemus" and "The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace." It includes pieces for male choir accompanied by piano or organ, showcasing both Jenkins' original compositions and his arrangements of popular hymns and folk songs. Each selection is inspired by the stunning Welsh landscape, reflecting the beauty of Jenkins' homeland.

The composition, created for acclaimed violinist Joo Yeon Sir, showcases a passacaglia structure that evolves from a mournful opening into a passionate display of advanced techniques, including double stops and pizzicato, before concluding peacefully. First performed at London's Royal Albert Hall with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, it later became part of Cantata Memoria, honoring the victims of the 1966 Aberfan tragedy. This work is designed for advanced performers, with performance materials available for hire.

Commissioned for the millennium by the Royal Armouries and dedicated to the victims of the Kosovo crisis, this work is a contemporary example of a mass based on the 15th-century French song L'Homme Arme (The Armed Man). The complete work sets sacred and secular texts including Tennyson, Kipling, The Koran and the Hindu Mahabharata within the framework of the Christian mass.
