Giovanni Gabrieli Partitions musique pour ensemble de cuivres

The deceptively calm opening of this eight part work gives way to bouncy 3/4 rhythms and a virtuoso coda. Dur 2'15'

This eight part sonata is perhaps the best known of Gabrieli's instrumental compositions as it was one of the first pieces to specify dynamics and instrumentation. A magnificently aristocratic work. D...

This eight part canzona really sparkles ~ wonderful repartee between the two choirs. Dur 2'

This eight part canzona is one of the most serious of all . Not even the usually bright 3/4 sections can overcome the sombre mood. Dur 3'

A light and entertaining work for two-four part choirs. The music shifts effortlessly from common to triple time. Dur 1'30'

A vigorous piece for two four-part choirs characterised by dotted and cross rhythms as well as forceful syncopations.

Based on the rhythm and rising scale, the opening theme is worked into a delightful rhythmical interplay between the two groups.

A cheerful motif pervades the antiphonal exchange between the two four-part choirs before a resplendent finish.

A much more formal work than normal, with the second group copying the first some four times. Finally the first imitates the second before a short coda for all the players.
