I hear an angel

sipping rye whiskey
at the end of day
I hear an angel;
her voice floats over the din
of random conversations

Jesus Wept (New Recording)

Jesus Wept

At the end of April I upgraded my copy of Garritan Personal Orchestra to the latest version. With it came a set of Choir samples of Ahs and Ohs, but more importantly the new Aria engine (player) supports Scala files. These are files that describe various tunings and allow you to “play” in a tuning other than equal temperament. With these two givens I prepared a new “rendering” of my motet “Jesus Wept”; one using equal temperament and another using a Pythagorean temperament. I have uploaded the Pythagorean version to the score on SibeliusMusic:

Jesus Wept Equal Tempered
