IN DULCI JUBILO (Latin for: "In sweet rejoicing") is the title track of Eva Beneke´s new Christmas album, produced by GSI.
The melody stems from the early 14th century in Germany, and was arranged by the great J.S. Bach and many composers. Here´s Eva´s festive arrangement for two guitars, played by her and maestro Scott Tennant - FREE DOWNLOAD - enjoy!

In Dulci Jubilo (arr. Eva Beneke)

"In her typically imaginative style, Assad has taken a dozen or so of Bach’s greatest hit tunes, from the opening of the Toccata in D Minor to “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring,” and whirled them through a music processor. Some melodies are truncated and cut up, while others are spiced with dissonance in the manner of Peter Warlock’s Capriol Suite, and some are placed in playful counterpoint against each other. Much passing around of parts among the individual players allows me to point to violist Elisabeth Prior and cellist Robin Bonnell in the back rows as outstandingly strong, lyrical performers. The violins got an occasional descant accompaniment, notably a pizzicato rendering from the Well-Tempered Clavier. At one point, the cellos are running a theme from one of the unaccompanied cello suites, the violas play the “Air on the G String” over it as a counterpoint line, and the violins chip in with a fragment from a Brandenburg Concerto. Listeners who love their Bach but refuse to take him too seriously would enjoy this."

"It was thus amusing to note that Assad used her suite also to turn the tables on Bach, devising a mash-up of all the tracks from some imagined My Favorite Bach recording refracted through a series of movements, each of which takes a different approach to instrumentation. The resulting effect was probably closer in spirit to PDQ than to Johann Sebastian, but all the gags emerged through some highly imaginative writing for individual instruments that are too often dismissed as accompaniment support."

“… a serious triple threat… a veritable musical dynamo.” – San Francisco Chronicle

A bold composer, a brilliant pianist and an inventive vocalist all rolled into one, Clarice Assad floats freely across musical idioms, drawing on an array of sounds from Amazon forest wildlife to operatic arias. A classically-trained pianist, Assad is deeply rooted in the earthy, folkloric rhythms of Brazil, capturing the attention of international audiences with her stunning talent. The term “world music” is redundant when applied to her style, a reflection of Brazil’s musical melting pot heritage of African rhythms mixed with European melodies and harmonies.
