Light of the World -Tewkesbury Abbey School Choir - Andrew Swait

Light of the World -Tewkesbury Abbey School Choir - Andrew Swait
ID: SIGCD068
CDs: 1
Type: CD
Collection: Choral Collection
Subcollection: Choir

Now and again a choir director finds he has an exceptional voice at his disposal. Andrew Swait was only ten years old when this disc was made - his voice was the original inspiration for the disc - and it features his outstandingly colourful tone quality and musicianship. In choosing the repertoire, we kept in mind the integrity of the great English church music tradition. We decided to do what choirs - their men and boys - do best in this country; sing, enjoy and relish the music of that tradition. Solo arias are interspersed with full choir numbers, some featuring treble solos and duets. Works by Schubert and Rachmaninoff are coupled with works from our own English masters, Sir Hubert Parry and John Rutter. Morten Lauridsen’s setting of Ubi caritas, combines a lushness of texture with the age-old plainsong melody. We hope you will enjoy this collection from Tewkesbury.

Many of the pieces in this anthology are morceaux de concours, pieces commissioned by the Paris Conservatory for the candidates who were preparing to pass the Prix that marked the end of higher musical studies. While the composer was free to write following his aesthetic preferences, there was only one condition imposed by the Conservatory: the piece had to be difficult! To deal minutely, in 5/6 minutes, with the key points of the transcendental technique of the instrument, from sonority to articulation, from speed to support, from changes of register to the intonation of the phrasing.
And so there was born and developed an entire literature that, besides the illustrious and little known, included names like Fauré, Enescu, Dutilleux, Jolivet and Messiaen. For many years, the classical structure of the morceau de concours was binary, alternating a first part which was lyrical and cantabile, generally in a minor key, with a pyrotechnical second part, in a major key, riddled with technical difficulties. Often, the titles of the pieces had the character of a diptych (Nocturneet Allegro scherzando, Andante pastoral et Scherzettino, Andante e scherzo…). Other times, the titles led to the formal structure of the piece (Fantaisie, Ballade…).
In choosing the pieces to record, I opted for some pieces of the very early twentieth century. I then decided to include also pieces which have nothing to do with the morceaux, in spite of the deceptive title (Caplet), or which are absolutely their source, not to mention Deus ex Machina (Debussy). [...]
At the same time, all the pieces recorded are very representative of the musical culture and the French art de vivre: sense of equilibrium, good taste, tendency towards concise clarity.
