Con Amores, La Mi Madre

Description: for SATB unaccompanied or with guitar This is an elegant and accessible SATB arrangement of the beautiful 'Con amores, la mi madre' by the Spanish Renaissance composer Juan de Anchieta. Underpinned by a flowing guitar accompaniment (optional), Chilcott's arrangement is rhythmically interesting and melodious, and the text may be sung in either Spanish or English. An ideal concert work for choirs looking for something a little different.

Review: No matter how many beautiful tunes one finds in the world, there always seems to be another waiting to be discovered. Bob Chilcott has found it here ... Although it sounds good enough on its own, the piece is transformed by a guitar obbligato, which provides a beautiful (and easily playable) countermelody to the original tune. Music Teacher, April 08
