gemischter Chor (SATB) und Orgel
‘Diese neue Fassung von Mass, vom Choir of Westminder Cathedral in Auftrag gegeben und zur Uraufführung gebracht, stellt eine wichtige Erweiterung des zeitgenössischen liturgischen Repertoires für Chor dar.
”Maxwell Davies” Mass enthält markante kontrapunktische Fassungen des Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus Benedictus und Agnus Dei. Das Gloria weist einige erstaunliche antiphonale Effekte auf… Als Dreingabe hat Maxwell Davies eine monodische Fassung des Credo mit Orgel geschaffen, eine Art ursprünglichen, einfachen Chorgesang, an der sich phantasievolle Kirchenchöre versuchen können.” (Church Times)’

The extent of Britten”s earlygenius can, to some extent, be measured by thiswork. Written while a student at the Royal College of Music aged only 19 itdemonstrates the most precocious creative gifts. A rock-solid technique is evident, but also theability to develop ideas over a large span of time (this is a major work) and, while testing even the best of choirs to its limits, Britten nevertheless always writes within the grasp of what is possible, and not only possiblebut supremely effective. Each movement contributes to the developing relationship with the initial theme, while also sitting perfectly within the sense of an unfolding ”Suite” of movements. The conductor needs to realise thetempo relationships and the contrasts of mood, pace and dynamics, and judge the scale of each movement in relation to the others. One of the issues with this work is that it requires a boys” choir in addition to the main choir. This, of course, can also be a girls” or even a mixed group of upper voices. It does have to be a separate group, however, and in some performances they also have their own conductor, but they should not be placed at a distancedue to the intricacy of their part in relation to the whole. A Boy was Born is one of the most excitingly satisfying of Britten”s choral works. While it should not be undertaken by any but the most ambitious amateur choirs, itschallenges are certainly surmountable with a good run of rehearsals.
