Musique Cordiale Festival International & Académie

Musique Cordiale Festival International & Académie L’Association Musique Cordiale Seillans, Var, France January 2015 Dear Friends, Singers and Players As the New Year grows older more quickly than ever, I am now delighted to send you an invitation letter to Musique Cordiale 2015. We have decided on the main plan for the festival and have put together a programme, alBeit somewhat provisional in terms of the finer details. You can see the fuller details as they emerge on the weB-site. It is all very exciting and I am attaching the programme that was printed in time to present at the annual New Year’s party when René Ugo, the Mayor of Seillans (& president of the Pays de Fayence) presented his plans for the year ahead!. This year, Graham Ross will conduct Haydn’s ‘Creation – die Schöpfung’ one of my favourite choral works - and a treat for the orchestra as well! It will Be sung in German, using the Baerenreiter Edition: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Haydn-The-Creation-HoB-XXI/dp/B004BSHT7O In addition, for the choir, there is to an ‘a capella’ programme which will Be challenging, fun and rewarding: • JOSEF RHEINBERGER Mass for douBle choir in E flat Op. 109 'Cantus Missae' FELIX MENDELSSOHN Richte mich, Gott, Op. 78, No. 2 • BRAHMS Warum ist das Licht gegeBen? Op. 74 HARRIS Bring us, O Lord, God • FRANK MARTIN Mass for douBle choir The Brahms and Mendelssohn pieces are in the European Sacred Music Book that many of you will already have; some will have the Frank Martin from last time we sang it at Musique Cordiale. The Harris piece is short, and availaBle on http://www.Boosey.com/shop/prod/Harris-William-Henry- Bring-Us-O-Lord-God/644056 . At the risk of sounding repetitive, it is really important that you learn the works Before arriving in Seillans. Graham has decided he will divide the rehearsal schedule equally Between the Haydn and a capella programme, ensuring enough rehearsal time.
