Michael Steinberg's highly successful listener's guides--The Symphony and The Concerto--have been universally praised for their blend of captivating biography, crystal clear musical analysis, and delightful humor. Now Steinberg follows these two greatly admired volumes with Choral Masterworks: A Listener's Guide, the only such guide available to this most popular of musical forms. Here are more than fifty illuminating essays on the classic choral masterworks, ranging from Handel's Messiah, Bach's Mass in B Minor, and Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, to works by Haydn, Brahms, Mendelssohn, and many others. Steinberg spans the entire history of classical music, from such giants of the Romantic era as Verdi and Berlioz, to leading modern composers such as Elgar, Rachmaninoff, Vaughan Williams, and Stravinsky, to contemporary masters such as John Adams and Charles Wuorinen. For each piece, Steinberg includes a fascinating biographical account of the work's genesis, often spiced with wonderful asides, such as the true story of Mozart's Requiem--Salieri had nothing to do with the composition of it, nor did he poison Mozart, who most likely died of rheumatic fever. The author also includes an astute musical analysis of each piece, one that casual music lovers can easily appreciate and that musicians and more serious fans will find invaluable. The book also includes basic information such as the various movements of the work, the organization of the chorus and orchestra, and brief historical notes on early performances. More than twenty million Americans perform regularly in choirs or choruses. Choral Masterworks will appeal not only to concert goers and CD collectors, but also to this vast multitude of choral performers, an especially engaged and active community.

The most prolific Portuguese choral composer of his generation, Eurico Carrapatoso was born on 15 February 1962. The development of Carrapatoso's music is unique in Portugal. A self-taught musician in the early stage of his education, Carrapatoso only started to compose in his late twenties. Yet his works became rapidly established within the compositional milieu. According to the New Grove Dictionary, his music is characterized by "stylistic multiplicity, whereby archaic modalism, chromatic tonality, and avant-garde techniques often confront each other within the same work." The enthusiastic acceptance of his choral works by both professional and amateur choruses as well as by audiences, places him as the most performed Portuguese composer in his country and abroad. His choral music displays a wide variety of genres that include symphonic choral works, folk and sacred a cappella cycles, chorus with piano or small ensemble, and children's choir music. This document will discuss a selection of eight choral works that are representative of his output. The following methods will be employed to construct the Conductor's Guide to these works: formal score analysis and stylistic analysis of treatment of harmony, melody, texture and texts, and a thorough IPA manual to the Portuguese pronunciation. This Conductor's Guide will become a necessary resource for conductors who approach the choral music of Eurico Carrapatoso, as no other guide exists.

A Conductor's Guide to the Choral-Orchestral Works of the Classical Period, Part I: Haydn and Mozart is the fourth volume in Jonathan Green's innovative study of the vast body of choral-orchestral repertoire. A treasure-trove for conductors of choir and orchestras, in this volume all of the masses, oratorios, cantatas, litanies, vespers, and minor sacred works of Haydn and Mozart are carefully examined. For each work, the author has compiled the text source, duration, date of composition, date and place of premiere, location of manuscript materials, commercially available editions, a selected discography, a bibliography, and a brief history of the work. Most importantly, the performance concerns for the choir, orchestra, and soloists of each work are evaluated and described. This will prove to be an invaluable programming aid for conductors and a touchstone for anyone embarking on research into this music.
