CG 72b, 1890

Read and write feedback

Gounods Messe brève No. 7 was originally published in 1877 in a version for two equal voices with organ, then in 1890 it reappeared with the words Aux chapelles added to the title, arranged for soli, four-part mixed choir and organ. Gounod does not set the Credo, that movement is to be sung congregationally. Gounod’s characteristic of his declamatory style of matching motifs closely to the rhythm of the words, and of following the natural speech rhythms through recitation on one note is evident straight away in the Kyrie.

 

The full score contains at the same time the organ part.

  • Charles Gounod is known today especially as the composer of the operas Faust (1859) and Roméo et Juliette (1867), and of the very popular Méditation sur le 1er prélude de piano de J. S. Bach (1852), arranged in 1859 as an Ave Maria. The fact that Gounod is regarded primarily as an important opera composer does not do justice to his extensive œuvre, which encompasses all genres. His creative output is dominated by his church music, which overshadows that of all other 19th-century composers. Personal details
