This list does not contain excerpts from larger works or any compositions longer than 8 minutes. 1. Ave verum corpus – Wolfgang A. Mozart (1756 – 1791) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed more than 600 works, many of which are acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral music. He is considered among the greatest classical composers of all time, and his influence on Western music is profound. Ludwig van Beethoven composed his early works in the shadow of Mozart, and Joseph Haydn wrote: "posterity will not see such a talent again in 100 years". Ave verum corpus – Wolfgang A. Mozart Academy and Chorus of St Martin in the Fields, Sir Neville Marriner 2. Mitten wir im Leben sind – Felix Mendelssohn (1809 – 1847) Jakob Ludwig Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy was a German composer, pianist, organist and conductor of the early Romantic period. Mendelssohn's compositions include symphonies, concertos, piano music, organ music and chamber music. His best-known works include the overture and incidental music for A Midsummer Night's Dream, the Italian Symphony, the Scottish Symphony, the oratorio St. Paul, the oratorio Elijah, the overture The Hebrides, the Page 1 of 7 mature Violin Concerto and the String Octet. The melody for the Christmas carol "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" is also his. Mendelssohn's Songs Without Words are his most famous solo piano compositions. Mitten wir im Leben sind - Felix Mendelssohn Chamber Choir of Europe, Nicol Matt, conductor 3. O magnum mysterium – Tomás Luis de Victoria (1548 – 1611) An accomplished composer, organist, and singer, Tomás Luis de Victoria is one of the most well-known composers of the Counter-Reformation (the period of Catholic resurgence initiated as a response to the Protestant Reformation). He exclusively wrote sacred music. O magnum mysterium – Tomás Luis de Victoria Cambridge Singers, John Rutter, conductor 4. Ave Maria – Giuseppe Verdi (1813 – 1901) Giuseppe Fortunino Francesco Verdi was an Italian opera composer. He was born near Busseto to a provincial family of moderate means, and developed a musical education with the help of a local patron. Verdi came to dominate the Italian opera scene after the era of Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and Gioachino Rossini, whose works significantly influenced him. Ave Maria – Giuseppe Verdi SWR Vokalensemble Stuttgart, Marcus Creed 5. Water Night – Eric Whitacre (born 1970) Eric Whitacre is an American composer, conductor, and speaker known for his choral, orchestral, and wind ensemble music. In March 2016, he was appointed as Los Angeles Master Chorale's first artist-in-residence at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. Water Night – Eric Whitacre BYU Singers, Ronald Staheli 6. Te Deum – Franz J Haydn (1732 – 1809) Franz Joseph Haydn was an Austrian composer of the Classical period. Haydn spent much of his career as a court musician for a wealthy family at their remote estate. Until the later part of his Page 2 of 7 life, this isolated him from other composers and trends in music so that he was, as he put it, "forced to become original." He was a friend and mentor of Mozart, a tutor of Beethoven, and the older brother of composer Michael Haydn. Te Deum – Franz J. Haydn BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, and the BBC Singers, Sir Andrew Davis 7. Agnus Dei (Adagio for Strings) – Samuel Barber (1910 – 1981) Samuel Barber was an American composer of orchestral, opera, choral, and piano music. He is one of the most celebrated composers of the 20th century. His Adagio for Strings has earned a permanent place in the concert repertory of orchestras. He was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Music twice: for his opera Vanessa and for the Concerto for Piano and Orchestra. Agnus Dei (Adagio for Strings) – Samuel Barber Dale Warland Singers, Dale Warland 8. Veni sancta Spiritus – Wolfgang A. Mozart (1756 – 1791) (see above) Veni sancta Spiritus – Wolfgang A. Mozart Collegium Instrumentale Brugense 9. Three Shakespeare Songs – Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872 – 1958) Ralph Vaughan Williams was an English composer. His works include operas, ballets, chamber music, secular and religious vocal pieces and orchestral compositions including nine symphonies, written over sixty years. Strongly influenced by Tudor music and English folk-song, his output marked a decisive break in British music from its German-dominated style of the 19th century.

Since the late 1970s, Pärt has Page 5 of 7 worked in a minimalist style that employs his self-invented compositional technique, tintinnabuli. Pärt's music is in part inspired by Gregorian chant. His most performed works include Fratres, Spiegel im Spiegel, and Für Alina. From 2011 to 2018, Pärt was the most performed living composer in the world, and the second most performed in 2019. The Arvo Pärt Centre, in Laulasmaa, was opened to the public in 2018.

    The Cambridge Singers Christmas Album directed by JOHN RUTTER AROLS AND CHRISTMAS MUSIC have always formed a part of the CCambridge Singers’ recorded repertoire, and this album picks out some of my The Cambridge Singers personal favourites. Most of the 23 items are taken from the two albums Christmas with the Cambridge Singers and Christmas Day in the Morning, and there are four previously unreleased tracks which were squeezed out of those two albums and which I am happy Christmas Album to have found space for here. There are three strands to the programme: traditional carols; choruses and motets; and composers’ carols. In fact these categories are not as separate as they might appear. Composers have always loved to take traditional melodies and incorporate them into their own compositions, sometimes considerably elaborating them in the process: think of all those L’homme armé masses or of Bach’s chorale treatments. The art of the arranger, widely thought of as a twentieth-century invention, is as old as composition itself. When we listen to a ‘traditional’ carol sung by a choir, we are in fact generally hear- ing the work of an identifiable composer who has arranged, in his own style, a melody by an unidentifiable or obscure composer from an earlier era. The earliest examples on this album are Victoria’s O magnum mysterium (1572), a four-voiced motet where the melodic outlines are based on a Gregorian chant, and Scheidt’s In dulci jubilo (1620), which takes one of the best-loved of all Christmas carols and turns it into a resplendent double-choir motet with two antiphonal trumpet parts.

    VIVA VERDI A small tribute to a great man, composer, Italian. Giuseppe Verdi • What do you know about Giuseppe Verdi? What does modern Western society offer everyday about him and his works? Plenty more than you would think. • Commercials with his most famous arias, such as “La donna e` nobile”, from Rigoletto, are invading the air time of television… • Movies and cartoons have also plenty of his arias… What about stamps from all over the world carrying his image? • There are hundreds of them…. and coins and medals… …and banknotes? Well, those only in Italy, that I know of…. Statues of him are all over the world… ….and we have Verdi Squares and Verdi Streets And let’s not forget the many theaters with his name… His operas even became comic books… • Well, he was a famous composer… but it’s that the only reason? Let’s look into that… Giuseppe Fortunino Francesco Verdi Born Joseph Fortunin François Verdi on October 10, 1813 in a village near Busseto, in Emilia Romagna, at the time part of the First French Empire. He was therefore born French! Giuseppe Verdi He was refused admission by the Conservatory of Milan because he did not have enough talent… …that Conservatory now carries his name. In Busseto, Verdi met Antonio Barezzi, a local merchant and music lover, who became his patron, financed some of his studies and helped him throughout the dark years… Thanks to Barezzi, Verdi went to Milano to take private lessons. He then returned to his town, where he became the town music master.
