Antiphon op. 56b. 1956. SATB with Optional Solos and Organ. Composed by Benjamin Britten. 1913-1976. For Choral, Chorus, Organ. SATB Score. Boosey & Hawkes Sacred Choral. 16 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M060013904. Published by Boosey & Hawkes. HL.48008875. for SATB with three treble. soprano solos. which Britten indicates can be reduced to one soloist or a semi-chorus. and organ. Text. George Herbert. Publisher. Boosey & Hawkes. Difficulty level. This work was written for the centenary of St. Michael's College, Tenbury. As so often, Britten uses treble or soprano solos which he indicates should be sung preferably in a gallery apart from the choir. Ever the practical composer, however, he also allows that these solo parts can be reduced to one voice or be sung by a small group of voices. The anthem is an interesting conception and its structure takes its cue both from the early part of Herbert's text which says. 'Praise be the God of Love, Here below And here above. ', and the end of the poem which says. 'Praise be the God alone, Who has made of two folds one'. It is this division into two which led him into the idea of two groups of singers. It is more than this, though, as the first group, the main choir, has two roles, the singing of energetic phrases in a quicker tempo, and the quiet response to a slower solo line. Having moved backwards and forwards between these two characters the choir eventually sings an uplifting 'fugato' which builds up a terrific head of steam with the organ part growing into crashing alternate hand chords and the pedals taking wing from the bottom to the top. literally. of the pedal board. A brief silence, and a chorale-like line subsides into a magical quiet ending where the three soloists sing triads to the word 'one' whilst the chorus responds with a lower triad on the word 'two'. The whole thing resolves onto a widely-spaced chord of F major and everyone singing the word 'one'. A slightly sentimental or glib touch. No, take it at face value after all that has gone before and appreciate Herbert's imagery. It is a wonderful resolution of the two elements played out through the piece. As with many other such works, the Antiphon requires an accomplished organist. The choir also needs to be confident both in their notes and rhythm. This is a rarely performed work which should really be much better known and more often performed than at present. It is certainly within the grasp of a reasonably competent choir looking for less well-known music by a great composer. Duration. 6 minutes. Paul Spicer, Lichfield, 2011.

To delo je bilo napisano za stoletnice svetega Mihaela College, Tenbury. Kot tako pogosto, Britten uporablja visoke tone ali sopran solo, ki ga označuje, naj se raje pojejo v galeriji poleg zbor. Kdaj praktično skladatelj, pa je prav tako omogoča, da se ti solo deli se lahko zmanjša na en glas ali pa poje majhno skupino glasove. Himna je zanimiv koncept in njegovo strukturo vzame sapo tako iz zgodnjega dela besedila, Herbert, ki pravi,. "Slava je Bog ljubezni, tukaj spodaj In tukaj zgoraj. "In konec pesmi, ki pravi,. "Slava je sam Bog, ki je sestavljen iz dveh gub enega". To je ta delitev na dva dela, ki ga je v ideji dveh skupin pevcev. To je več kot to, čeprav, kot je prva skupina, glavni zbor, dve vlogi, petje energična stavkov v hitrejši tempo, in mirno odziv počasnejši solo linije. Potem nazaj in naprej giblje med tema dvema znakov zbor na koncu poje poživljajočo "fugato", ki se kopiči grozen glavo pare z del organ raste v treskav nadomestnih ročno akordov in pedala ob krilo od dna do vrha. Dobesedno. pedala krovu. Kratka tišina, in-koralno kot linija upade v magičnem mirno končnico, kjer so trije solisti pojejo triad na besedo "eno", medtem ko zbor odziva z nižjo triade na besedo "dva". Vsa stvar rešuje na široko razmakih tetiva F-duru in vsakogar, ki poje besedo "eno". Rahlo sentimentalna ali gostobeseden dotik. Ne, ga vzemite po nominalni vrednosti, potem vse kar je bilo prej in cenijo Herbert posnetkov. To je čudovito ločljivost dveh elementov igre skozi kos. Kot pri mnogih drugih tovrstnih del, Antifona zahteva priznanega organista. Zbor mora biti tudi prepričani tako v svojih pojasnilih in ritem. To je redko izvajano delo, ki bi bilo v resnici veliko bolj znana in pogosto izvede kot sedaj. To je zagotovo v dosegu razumno pristojnega zbor išče manj znane glasbe z velikega skladatelja. Trajanje. 6 minut. Paul Spicer, Lichfield 2011.
