David Rain: "Psalm 23" (Sung by Matthew Curtis)

Two points of note:
First, the composition grew out of the feeling that all 4 voices should start on the same note, grow outwards and then come back to that same note at the end. The rest just seemed to evolve on its own, seemingly guided by some external force.
Second, unusually, I have asked choirs (where possible) to sing this without any breaks, via staggered breathing, as I wanted to highlight the deep conviction underlying the words of the Psalm, as one single thread of deep belief that moves from beginning to end.
Sincere thanks to Matthew Curtis (Choraltracks.com) for recording "Psalm 23."
As always, comments are welcomed. Email me at rain@magma.ca, if you'd like more info.
I would like to acknowledge the a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for their musical inspiration these past 26 years.
I would also like to thank my friends in our "Ad ... less

We believe that music can positively impact and enrich lives. Our performances reflect this belief in their use of such seasonal themes as ‘freedom’ and ‘healing’ and ‘our mother earth;’ and in presentation of mostly new music in a way that is accessible. Our educational programs reflect this belief by training emerging professionals, planting seeds within young people for a lifetime of music involvement, and growing the skills of our own members. Our commitment to new Choral music reflects this belief even beyond our substantial performance commitment through Project Encore™ and our Featured Composer Program. Substantially more than a singing group, SCH is unique in many respects that reflects both a breadth and a depth that bespeaks the full meaning of a ‘schola’ (‘school’).

XI. Quoniam tu solus Santus, XII. Cum Sanctus Spiritu
XI.因為你是唯一的聖者
Quoniam tu solus Santus
第十一段韋瓦第使用第一段的靈感動機,前後呼應,使全曲得到完美的一貫性。
XII.同享天主聖父的榮光 Cum Sancto Spiritu
而第十二段一開始,小喇叭再度燦爛地展現,精采有力地帶出了結論段的光輝,主題在男低 音聲部出現,接著女高音出現副題。整首是賦格曲式,主題副題在各聲部輪流出,有時也在 樂器聲部出現。整曲莊嚴有力地頌讚三位一體的上帝。全曲在劇力萬鈞的「阿們」聲中結束 。
