Hi Lauri, There is a book called 52 Sacred Songs ( you like to sing ). Perhaps you may find some songs in that book. Good luck Norma "Laauri, uri D. Goldenhersh" wrote:Hi, gang! I have a challenge for all you repertoire geeks out there--
For those of you who donıt know me, Iım a freelance pro in Southern California, and I sing all kinds of things, all over. (We have to really love our cars out here...)
Iım really looking for two types of things: 1) art songs with sacred texts, suitable for recital situations (I use sacred here to mean spiritual, of any religious background), and 2) sacred solos from the last fifty years in an art song style (rather than popish contemporary), good for church or temple services, or good for auditions.
Iım bored with my sacred solos, and I love modern compositional styles. I have a few interesting (read strange/obscure) solos that work well in an unusual recital format (e.g. Howells ³King David² and anything by Richard Cummings), but Iıd love more.
Any ideas? I suspect thereıs lots out there, and Iım just having problems thinking outside the usual boxes. Assume that Iım a fabulous musician with a huge range (both are about 75% true), and that I can find anything, in print or out (you never know!). Throw at me anything you can think of. Iıd just love to hear what you love.
Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you!
Lauri
