Magnificat in B flat major
Arragement for soloists, choir and organ (arr. G. Kumpp)
Francesco Durante (1684–1755) was highly esteemed by his contemporaries, and even at the end of the 19th century he was still described in musical literature als “one of the greatest Italian church composers and composition teachers of all time”. His Magnificat in B flat major is undoubtedly one of his most important compositions and one of the most significant settings of this text in cantata form. It masterfully combines the traditional polyphonic notation with modern, early Classical elements.
In addition: 6 choral Christmas settings for choir SATB as inserts: choral score (Carus 10.270/06), choir & organ (10.270/46).
Also available in the original instrumentation (Carus 10.270/00).
