Antifone Edition Details Composer: Francesco Barsanti (1695–1775) Date: 1748–1760 Key: Modal Form: Five-part motets for unaccompanied choir Style: Palestrinian counterpoint Scoring: Soprano, Mezzo, Alto, Tenor, Bass Sources: Four contemporary sources including the composer's first edition, an incomplete set of manuscript parts in the composer's hand, Welker's edition, and the Madrigal Society manuscripts in the hand of copyist William Clarke. Editorial Category: Urtext edition. Contents: Full score (32 pages) Antifona I: Ne reminiscaris
Domine (SMATB) Comments: These motets are exquisite examples of their genre, and will make a fine addition to the repertoire of any choral ensemble. Although written for unaccompanied voices, they also lend themselves quite well to performance by instrumental consorts, particularly those composed of recorders and/or viols. There are few challenges of technique in the music; students and amateurs at all levels will find these motets both accessible and rewarding. |
