Augustinas, Lux Aeterna [Pet:TOV008]

Lux Aeterna.
Augustinas, Vaclovas.
Edited by Hillier, Paul.

For: SATB.SATB.SATB choir or soli.

Choir or 12 solo voices (SATB-SATB-SATB) -- The size and shape of the place in which the music is performed are particularly important for this composition. The special spatial deployment ofthe singers is absolutely necessary to convey the structural imagery of the piece. Performance position may be chosen considering the structure of the building (three configurations are specified in the score).
I had the idea for creating the Theatre of Voices Edition when my researches into Baltic repertoire suggested to me that far more wonderful music was being composed than existing publishing houses have recognized. It seemed to me there might be room for a new perspective, publishing fine music that I know singers enjoy singing and audiences enjoy hearing. TOVE will therefore present a very personal selection, but one rooted in the direct experience of knowing the composers and performing the music. And for similar reasons, TOVE will also be an outlet for my work in early music and in the strangely neglected field of 19th century English music. In addition, we will publish little books, pamphlets, and other musical miscellania, as time and opportunity affords.
