O Come and Mourn With Me Awhile

- Nicola Montani, arr. Carol Traupman-Carr

 


PDF Sample

Use: Lent, Holy Week
Required Resources: SATB choir, soprano descant
Language: English

Nicola A. Montani (1880-1948), a New York Catholic composer, founded the Saint Gregory Guild and contributed music and arrangements to the Saint Gregory Hymnal, originally published in 1920.

O Come and Mourn with Me Awhile, one of Montani's tunes, has been sung by choirs for many Lenten seasons since it first appeared. Dr. Carol Trautman-Carr, Music Director at the Church of Saint Ann in Emmaus, Pennsylvania, has arranged this for a cappella SATB choir. Four verses are set:

  1. SATB
  2. TB
  3. SAA
  4. SATB with descant

The vocal part writing is efficient and beautiful. Harmonies, centered on e minor, are refined and interesting.

This motet would make a very accessible piece for Lent or Holy Week. As with all a cappella music published by CNP, we include a piano reduction of the voice parts for rehearsal use.
