    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    for SSAATTBB unaccompanied
    These splendid and musically rewarding settings, published under the series title Chapel Royal Canticles, have been largely neglected by publishers and performers. They were almost certainly used by William Byrd as models for his own Great Service, and are therefore of prime historical importance.

    Long description:

    Magnus Williamson's excellent new editions of two particulary lovely Elizabethan settings of the Evening Canticles are welcome for myriad reasons, not least because he has selected a pitch one tone higher than the original, rather than the now 'old hat' minor third. Many choristers will appreciate this more pure look to the score, while some may be challenged by the lower range of the alto parts, and the resulting slightly darker sonority invites the choirmaster to explore a wider spectrum of interpretational colour. The practicality of these editions is admirable: both scores are lavishly laid out, easy to read and carefully thought through from the performers' point of view.
