Overview

Andorka Péter Máté: Three Liturgical Chants I. Lux aeterna is a sophisticated choral work composed for a six-part female choir. Written in Latin, this piece forms part of a cycle of liturgical chants composed in 2009 and is presented here as the first installment of the cycle.

The text of Lux aeterna is drawn from the mass for the dead, setting a solemn and reflective mood. Its intricate part-writing and wide vocal range demand a high level of technical precision and expressive interpretation, making it best suited for professional or advanced choirs. The work not only showcases contemporary Hungarian compositional techniques but also weaves in elements of traditional liturgical chant, offering both a rich historical connection and a modern musical perspective.

Hungarian Translation – Áttekintés

Andorka Péter Máté: Három liturgikus ének I. Lux aeterna egy kifinomult kórusmű hatszólamú nőikarra, latin nyelven íródott. Ez a darab a 2009-ben megkomponált liturgikus énekciklus első részeként jelenik meg.

Lux aeterna szövege a halottak miséjéből származik, így ünnepélyes, elmélkedő hangulatot teremt. A mű kifinomult szólamelrendezése és széles hangterjedelme magas technikai precizitást és érzelmi kifejezést kíván, ezért leginkább profi vagy haladó kórusok számára ajánlott. A darab egyszerre tükrözi a kortárs magyar zeneszerzés innovatív megközelítését és a hagyományos liturgikus énekek elemeit, gazdag történelmi kapcsolatot és modern zenei perspektívát kínálva.
