Composer anniversaries

Gabriel Fauré composed a whole series of sacred choral music as a result of his church music activities.

His popular larger choral works - the Cantique de Racine and the atmospheric Requiem - are available from Carus in various authentic versions, for smaller and larger ensembles.

Carus also offers selected pieces from Fauré's extensive song oeuvre in arrangements for mixed choir.

Who doesn't think of Puccini's famous work Messa a quattro voci, also known as Messa di Gloria?

In addition to a high-quality linen edition, which includes numerous corrections to the traditional musical text, we also offer an arrangement by Joachim Linckelmann, which also gives smaller ensembles the opportunity to perform the work.

In 2024, we will celebrate Bach's first choral cantata year in Leipzig.

You can use our calendar (PDF) to find out which cantatas will be performed when in the church year and plan your own performance for the anniversary.

All masses, the complete liturgical music, the late works for choir and orchestra as well as exciting secular choral repertoire by Bruckner are published by Carus. 

Celebrate the Austrian composer of the late Romantic period with your choir!
