    Hallo!
    I'm Marta from Italy (excuse me for my bad English!); I'm a new entry for this site.
    With my choir we are starting our singing "rehearsal" for Christmas and we would like to learn "Verbum Caro Factum Est" in the version arranged by Richard Proulx but we have difficulty in finding the score.
    Does anyone have this score? If yes, is it possible to receive it by e-mail (marta.vilnai@libero.it)?
    Thank you very much for your help or advice
    Marta

    Proulx's setting of Verbum Caro is still under copyright; but can be purchased here:

    A really lovely piece - a favorite of a choir I used to be involved with.

  • Hi! Im new here, I've been googling Palestrina's Verbum Caro for months now and I havent found any sound file. Please do any of you know where I can find a video, mp3 or any tipe of sound file of this piece? (if possible, a choir singing, instead of a midi file... if possible) We sing it in our choir and I love it, but I have never heard it from someone else.
