- catalog abstract ""Musical Works For Chorus are among the great masterpieces of twentieth-century art. This guide covers the extraordinary range of music for vocal ensembles, including secular, sacred, and folk- and jazz-influenced works from all over the world." "Nick Strimple's personal yet all-encompassing survey ranges from the early days of the century, when such nineteenth-century masters as Elgar and Saint-Saens were still writing their final works, to the very recent past, in which composers as diverse as Tan Dun, Paul McCartney, Morten Lauridsen, and Arvo Part have explored new directions for this popular art form. The geographical scope is just as sweeping: arranged by country or region, the book includes not only European and American idioms but also less familiar music from Africa and the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Pacific Rim." "Worthwhile repertory of every style and level of complexity is critically surveyed and described, reflecting the author's vast experience with - and enthusiasm for - choral literature. Strimple provides a useful summary of trends in Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish sacred music, as well as an evaluation of repertory intended specifically for educational use." "Those seeking out new choral repertory will find extensive lists of works categorized by type of choral ensemble (mixed, children's, female, male) and accompaniment (a cappella, piano, organ, other instruments, band, orchestra). In fact, the book will be essential to every choral conductor and a valuable resource for the thousands of dedicated members of choirs, choral societies, and choruses, both professional and amateur."--Jacket.".
