LIBERA, LUCA DELLA (ED)

Masses by Alessandro Scarlatti and Francesco Gasparini: Music from the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome

Middleton, WI: A-R Editions, Inc, 2004. 0895795574. First Edition. First Printing. Soft Cover. ISBN: 0895795574. Publisher's glossy card wraps. The purpose of this edition is twofold: to make available to scholars and performers an unexplored repertoire by composers of the first rank, Alessandro Scarlatti and Francesco Gasparini, and at the same time to reveal the importance of the musical establishment at the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome, with which they were associated. In the case of Scarlatti, who was chapel master of the basilica from 1707 to 1709, this volume adds to the small portion of his sacred music that is available in modern editions. Gasparini did not serve as chapel master of the basilica, but he had a very close relationship with it. From 1725 to 1727 he was master of the "Salve," a private chapel of the Borghese family within the basilica. This volume is the very first to present sacred music of Gasparini in a modern edition. Contents: Messa per il Santissimo Natale (I-Rsm 73/14), Alessandro Scarlatti Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa breve, e concertata a cinque voci (I-Rsm 73/12), Alessandro Scarlatti Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa a quattro voci concertata (I-Rsm 117/42), Francesco Gasparini Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa a quattro voci concertata (I-Rsm 117/43), Francesco Gasparini Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei UPDATE: Messa a quattro voci concertata (I-Rsm 117/42), Francesco Gasparini: Kyrie Due to an unfortunate computer-production error, the pitches in measures 6-10 of the vocal bass part are one step too high (see the continuo line for the correct pitches). There is a very small knick on the front cover and a remainder mark on the bottom edge, else as new; unmarked, tight, square, and clean. NEAR FINE. Recent Researches in the Music of the Baroque Era Series. Vol. 137. 4to 11" - 13" tall. 242 pp. Near Fine with No dust jacket as issued .
