Palestrina Suite 組曲

喬瓦尼-德-帕萊斯特裡納（Giovanni de Palestrina）的讚美詩比巴赫的作品要早一個多世紀，融入了文藝復興時期偉大的複調傳統。這首組曲中使用的曲目來自 1589 年出版的《全年讚美詩》集，其中包含的對唱合唱效果特別適合器樂演奏。約翰-莫斯在這首美妙的樂隊作品中使用了對比強烈的音色和質地，以及特有的模態調性。時長3:30（含完整演奏光碟）

原文簡介:
Hymns by Giovanni de Palestrina pre-date those of Bach by over a century and incorporate the great polyphonic tradition of Renaissance writing. The compositions used in this suite are from a collection published in 1589 titled Hymns of the Entire Year, and incorporate antiphonal choral effects that lend themselves particularly well to instrumental settings. John Moss uses richly contrasting tone colors and textures as well as characteristic modal tonalities in this wonderful setting for band. Dur: 3:30 (Includes Full Performance CD)
難度: 3
