For Unison/2-Part , Opt. Flute
Composer: Franz Schubert
Arranger: Helenclair Lowe
Originally published in 1977, this top-selling anthem is now being reissued in Choristers Guild's Select Voices Series. Adapted from Schubert's Mass in G, the short Latin text serves as a good introduction to singing in a foreign language, emphasizing pure vowel sounds for unified vocal production. Lowe's alternate, general text in English provides the opportunity to use this graceful, Romantic masterpiece at any time of year.
