choral music (wanna relax)

This is a new track that I have, as of today, started to work on. First one in 2 years, so I am sporadic! :) It has a movie theme feel to it which is something I enjoy as I have a love and passion for all things film, whether photography or the big screen. This is a concept track and very rough as it is early stages. Being a bass guitarist, it is very percussive and dotted with strings and choral ... I am just going to run with it and see what comes of it. Watch this space for the mixed version :) Thank you P.S Initium Novum is latin for New Beginning ...

Initium Novum

From Curtis Bryant's MAGNIFICAT, the fourth movement "Omnes Generationes," performed by the Choral Guild of Atlanta, directed by William Noll, with the Sandy Springs Chamber Orchestra (1986).  The Latin text for this movement is:

omnes generationes,
quia fecit mihi magna,
qui potens est,
et sanctum nomen eius

Secrets Of The Past by Dirk Ehlert

Here's something choral for you to enjoy. A schola chants the Kyrie Eleison from the Christian liturgy, while a choir in the background sings a Latin antiphon taken from Psalm 102:15. It's not meant to be sung in a liturgical setting, though it could be adapted for such a context. The piece is a bit convoluted: I was trying some new things out both compositionally and in recording, not entirely successfully, but I still think the finished product has some merit. Dedicated to Mark Seitz.

Kevin Birch has led the chamber choir since 1995 – and has served at Director of Music at St. John’s Roman Catholic Church since 1992.
