About this arrangement

SSAA choir a cappella SKU: C3.CP-1588 Composed by Robert Ingari. Octavo. 8 pages. Cypress Choral Music #CP 1588. Published by Cypress Choral Music (C3.CP-1588). Soleils couchants is a four-part a cappella setting of one of Paul Verlaine's most famous poems from the collection Poemes saturiens published in 1866. In his setting of this poem, Robert Ingari uses a simple form where the alto melody accompanied by a vocal ostinato in the soprano, tenor and bass alternates with a four-part section where the melody is taken by the sopranos. The rhythmic repetition of the ostinato creates a background for the melancholic melody of the altos.
