Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis (British Gloria Patri text)

for two-part treble choir and organ

by Mark Winges

The vocal writing in this Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis is straightforward, modal, and partially canonic. The organ part is more intricate. The voices sing the same Gloria Patri material in both canticles, although the organ writing is unique to each. This version has the British form of the Gloria Patri (“is now, and ever shall be, world without end”). A version with the American form of the Gloria Patri is also available.

“Are Friends Delight or Pain?” is a brief a cappella double-choir movement (SATB + SATB, ~1’45”) excerpted from Cycle of Friends, setting Emily Dickinson’s epigram with concentrated intensity.

A lyrical meditation on friendship and loss, Cycle of Friends is a concert centerpiece with texts ranging from Sappho and Emily Dickinson to Tang-dynasty China and pre-Columbian Mexico.

Musick to Heare, a madrigal on Sonnet VIII of William Shakespeare, was composed in 2006. It is written for a cappella SATB chorus, and although it has infrequent divisi a due in each of the parts, the use of smaller vocal forces (8 or 16 performers), with lighter Renaissance-style singing is preferred. Difficulty level: Difficult.
