Christi Jones

Three Part Mixed.
Though this adaptation of J.S. Bach's Suite No. 3 in B minor using Latin text is brief — only 36 measures long — it showcases mixed choirs beautifully. Your mixed ensemble will sound sophisticated and elegant when performing this at any concert or festival. Also available for TB Voices (BL912), SA Voices (BL997) and SATB Voices (BL1232).
This song should be performed with a sense of severity, yet should remain sensitive. Paying attention to the Latin syllabic stress and phrasing will help avoid clipping at the ends of phrases when the ensemble takes a breath.PronunciationLacrimosa                Lah-kree-MAW-sahDies illa                      Dee-ehs    EE-lahQua resurget            KooAH  re-SOOR-jehtEx favilla                   EHKS   fah-VEEL-lahJudicandus                Yoo- dee-KAHN-doosHomo reus                 AW-maw   REH-oohsHuic ergo                    OO-eek     EHR-gawParce  Deus                 PAHR-cheh    DEH-oosPie Jesu Domine       PEE-eh   YEH-soo   DAW-mee-nehDona eis requiem     DAW-nah  EH-ees REH-kooee-ehmAmen                             AH-mehnTranslationThat day off tears and mourning,when from the ashes shall arise,all humanity to be judged.Spare us by your mercy, Lord,gentle Lord Jesus,grant them eternal rest.  Amen.
