In search of Monteverdi score
-
Monteverdi's lovely Christe, Redemptor Omnium is sung accompanied
usually by orchestra, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=884LA2d21RE
but sometimes simply, by piano, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=323y8Sv60Ls
and if by piano, then probably by organ, which after all has 1000 voices.
Does anyone have a keyboard accompaniment for this & can give a source?
Many thanks! -
I must say I'm astonished at Norrington's tempo! The piece is given as Deus tuorum militum in the 1641 Selva morale e spirituale, with a note "alla qual aria si
puo cantare parimente Ut queant laxis di S. Gio. Batt. & simili" ; i.e. any LM text.
It works with SAB or rather MMB as well, and one can play the two violin parts in the right hand fairly easily from Peter Rottländer's full score. -
Thank you!
