Every year, members of the community combine with the students of my alma mater, MSSU (Missouri Southern State University) to form the Southern Symphonic Chorus, and alongside the Southern Symphony Orchestra, we perform beautiful orchestral works from Beethoven"s 9th to Orff"s Carmina Burana, and everything in between or of a similar nature. Performing these great masterworks does a great service to my hometown of Joplin, MO, in that it brings class to what some folks claim would otherwise be a classless town. (I"m not so sure about that, but that"s what the people have said so in the past about it.)
I had previously done the "Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel"s "Messiah" because I had sung that before, but I had never sung the whole thing. This year, after a 2-year hiatus resulting from COVID-19, we"re finally singing again, and we"re doing the Messiah. I therefore decided to do a few more choral excerpts from the oratorio in celebration. All text comes directly out of the Bible. I"m not going to do all of them, though; just a few specific ones that I performed with the aforementioned chorus. These tracks were made to help me practice for the big day.
This one is entitled "All We Like Sheep (Have Gone Astray)." I experimented with a different instrument lineup for this one, mixing old and new habits:
Soprano saxophone (representing soprano vocal part)
Alto saxophone (representing alto vocal part)
Tenor saxophone (representing tenor vocal part)
Baritone saxophone (representing bass vocal part)
Glockenspiel (doubling tenor part)
Vibraphone (doubling bass part, but in treble clef)
Marimba (playing transposed parts representing violins I & II)
Piano (playing transposed parts representing violincello, or cello, and contrabass)
