In the liturgy, the "Amen" is the act of consent of the people to the Work of God, as the ministers exercise it; it is also his act of adherence to the prayers made in his name by the celebrant. This sacred work is written by Pierre Tossou, choirmaster in Toulouse. He conducts the vocal ensemble of Rangueil in this city. The organ part can be played on the piano and is not difficult. The vocal parts can be sung by any level singers. This work is mainly dedicated to church service but can also be performed for secular concerts.

SSA Octavo

A tribute to "Notre-Dame", inspired by the catastrophy of the fire that ravaged a large part of the Parisian cathedral on the 15th of april 2019. Those two works can be interpreted for any tribute to monuments built by men througout the centuries, but also for office as the texts are simply prayers to the virgin ("See, O Our Lady, all those who are before you, they'd want their souls to always be beautiful to you, full of Grace ..."). A spiritual work dedicated to a temporal monument that expresses the surpassing of a simple pile of stone and wood.

Boogie

From Alain Fromy's Christmas collection - 29 harmonized Christmas carols for mixed voices 
The piece is beautiful and simple, festive and contemplative, in tune with the mood of the season.

The ancient Christmas songs from the different regions of France, beyond an often tasty language, are a true theological summary within the reach of simple people. They evoke the Incarnation which necessarily leads to the cross and thus to the Redemption of sinful man.

It can be sung during the concert by the audience itself which, divided into 3 desks (SAH), quickly learns the 3 voices and sings with the choristers, to everyone's delight.
Christmas is about sharing, and the concert is not just about singers performing in front of an audience: it is about everyone singing together to celebrate the coming of the Son of God.

La voix, poem by Robert Desnos music by Dominique Plenat for SATB choir  sheet music a cappella mixed voices

After Surgis (Edition A Cur Joie ref. 10060), his composition to a text by Paul Eluard, Dominique Plenat shares his vision of La voix (The voice) by Robert Desnos, another great poet and resistance fighter during WW2, friend of Eluard by the way, and, like him, of Andre Breton and Picasso.
This poem is from the collection Contree published first time in 1944 just after the author's arrest for acts of the French Resistance and his deportation. He died of typhus in 1945, a month after his liberation by the Russians.
Deliberately far from a scholarly or complex approach, this music for four-part mixed choir aims to bring out simply, just to underline it, this very beautiful text from the time of the Resistance.
Like most of the works Dominique Plenat writes for the choirs he conducts, this is a short, warm and easily accessible piece. With a few descriptive surprises, the whole is, in the end, very classical. The composer's interest in sixteenth-century choral music is evident, particularly in his treatment of cadenzas.
To ensure that the music really serves the text, which is what we're aiming for, we suggest working on phrasing and accentuation from the very first approach to the score.
The voice in question is mysterious, distant and yet very audible and so convincing right up to the end of this luminous poem:
Elle dit :  La peine sera de courte duree 
Elle dit :  la belle saison est proche .
Ne l'entendez-vous pas ?
- She says: "The sentence will be short".
- She says: "The fine season is just ahead".
- Can't you hear it ?
To make this voice heard? Such a nice project for a choir!

Sheet music score for 4 mixed voices A cappella Choir (SATB).
Performance circa 2 minutes.

La voix

This spoken-singing sheet music is for mixed or equal voices.We have so much to learn from texts coming from pre-Columbian Indian Americans; their symbols and their words are poetry. Myths help us to get closer to the early humans confronted to life mysteries and searching for answers. "Les couleurs" was written by the Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano. He was inspired by a text written by the surrealist poet Benjamin Peret who was himself inspired by a Kadiweu myth. Singers of "En ce temps-la" should perform the story with "colored" rhythmic words. How white birds became so colorful? That's the question the story answers to. Mirtha Pozzi is passionate about pre-Columbian myths and already set to music texts written by Eduardo Galeano or coming from Popol Vuh in the show "La Serpiente immortal et autres mythes precolombiens," which CD was released by Buda Musique.
