Re: CD 'accompaniment' at Mass

Oh, if only it were that straightforward. The performing rights society (PRS) only represent the interests of the composers and publishers, who own the copyright of the notes on the page as it were. Thus they have an interest in both live and recorded music. There's another body, the PPL (Phonograph...

Re: Hymns for the Reformation Martyrs

There's one I remember from primary school days - Martyrs of England, Standing on high. (OK, England - but possibly tweakable). From what I remember of the words it should be fairly inoffensive ( not as strangers in far-off lands, / not as heroes of long ago ; / our English speech ye can understand,...

Re: I cannot tell . .

I have it on good authority that there's no commercially-available or public domain SATB arrangement of this, which is a surprise and a shame - it gets sung quite a lot in this neck of the woods, in churches of various denominations but always with someone's home-spun harmonisation. Johnmac if you P...

Re: A Tune I Can't Find

There's quite a slick piece of sofware out there, produced by Stainer & Bell, which does the index-of-tunes bit in an online fashion - and it's very clever and effective. Tapping Lakelark's letters into a keyboard graphic thingie returned "Dulcis Memoria" instantly. It works off a sequ...

Re: Rondeau - Jean-Jacques Mouret

It appears in a piano/organ version in The Complete Wedding Collection, ed. Robert Schulze, IMP, 9-781-576239889 - haven't seen this so can't vouch for how grown-up an arrangement it is. (though because it's classified under 'PVG' -piano/vocal/guitar - I'd be wary of forking out!). What's presumably...

Re: Rimsky-Korsakov Our Father

Thanks - esp. to Gabriel and SC for the pdf's. (so no copyright restrictions with these?) For the curious - R-K's original can be seen by clicking on the image here : http://www.musicarussica.com/titledet.lasso?-database=musrus_titles&-response=titledet.lasso&-layout=item_detail&-op=eq&a...

Rimsky-Korsakov Our Father

Is anyone able to point me in the direction of the English setting of this, freebie or otherwise? - CPDL offers Latin and Dutch. Many thanks. (Incidentally, an attempt to search this forum with Rimsky-Korsakov fails with the advice that the aforementioned is "too common" a search term....)

Re: Lord Jesus, think on me

Another lurker, braving first-time active participation as well (gulp)…. The origin of gathering notes – from what I understand – is rooted in the rather bizarre but well-documented English practice of the “lining-out” of metrical psalms, from reformation days, where before each line was sung by the...
