About this arrangement

3 bassoons & contrabassoon SKU: IG.PDP226 Composed by Orlando de Lassus. Score and Parts. Imagine Music Publishing #PDP226. Published by Imagine Music Publishing (IG.PDP226). 9 x 12 in inches.Exaltabo Te (I Exalto You, 0 Lord) is one of Lassus's most beautiful motets. The text is the Offertory for Ash Wednesday and is taken from Psalm 29, or No. 30, depending on your denomination: I will exalt You, 0 Lord for You have sustained me and prevented my enemies from rejoicing over me: 0 Lord, I have cried unto You and You have healed me. I firmly believe that transcriptions of Renaissance masterpieces should be used in seminars, masterclasses, or Double Reed Day situations. In addition to exposing the performers to the beauties of repertoire with which they may not be familiar, study of this music provides many benefits which can not help but contribute to a player's growth as a musician. Works from this era will help develop a strong sense of rhythm and metrical pulse, as well as forcing players to accurately count their own part. As the lines are independently conceived, each player must shape their individual phrases, promoting expressive musicianship. Lastly and perhaps most importantly, these compositions will quickly expose intonation deficiencies and will necessitate a careful approach to linear intonation as well as tuning vertical intervals.
