Stille Nacht : SATB : Richard Proulx : Franz Gruber : Sheet Music : GIA6146

Richard Proulx : Stille Nacht

This version of "Silent Night" is an augmented instrumental arrangement by Franz Gruber of the famous guitar accompaniment. In this subsequent "original" version scored for guitar, string trio, and two horns, the verses are sung as duets with the full choir taking up the refrain. The editor/ arranger's brilliant notes indicate this version is in the "form of an Austrian landler dance," of which the original manuscript is in the possession of the famous von Trapp family. This edition with Bruce Larson's descant and violin obbligato is a treasure trove for any serious, or sentimental, musician!

Richard Proulx : Weihnachten

Richard Proulx brings this 19th century German song to the modern world of Christmas choral music. The first part of each verse is intended for a soloist; the choir provides responses in the second part. Lots of chromaticism makes for lush harmonies and refined expression. This melodic setting may be done simply with choir and organ (and optional harp and flute) or more elaborately with winds and strings.Ê
