Summary of This Score
The Oratorio Anthology - Tenor gathers an anthology of oratorio arias specially chosen for the tenor voice. Compiled by Richard Walters, this volume provides a particularly useful corpus to build a coherent program, work on vocal endurance, and approach varied writing styles, from the more intricate Baroque line to the more dramatic Romantic outbursts.
The collection spans major works of the sacred and concert repertoire: it notably includes the universe of Bach (Passions, Magnificat, Christmas Oratorio, Mass in B minor), the expressive breadth of Handel (Messiah, Samson, Jephtha, Israel in Egypt, Judas Maccabaeus, Athalia), as well as essential milestones by Haydn, Mendelssohn, Rossini, Verdi, and Beethoven. This diversity allows working on diction and articulation as well as legato, projection, and contrast management.
Thanks to this selection, the tenor has a relevant resource to refine style (phrasing, ornamentation, expressivity), compare sung languages, and explore different forms of arias. A wise choice if you are looking for a classical vocal score oriented towards auditions and repertoire, with famous titles such as "Comfort Ye, My People," "Sound An Alarm!," or "Waft Her, Angels."
