LA MUSIQUE DE LA BIBLE REVELEE
Harmonia Mundi CD HMA 195989 (formerly HMA 190989)
This CD (also called Volume 1) is based
on the original LP produced at the same time as the French book of the same title (La
musique de la Bible révélée, 1st edition, Robert Dumas,
1976). It has the greatest variety of texts, but is the shortest in length. It it also the most mixed in terms
of performance quality (save perhaps for Psaumes de David).
For some reason, there are a number of errors in the performance of the melody, and some differences between accompaniment
in the recording and that in the written score. (In the corresponding score, there are also transcription errors
in the biblical melody, most marked as errata.) |
|
The recent re-release of the CD (under a different catalog number) has a slightly different cover than the older
release shown here. In the U.S., it is obtainable via Harmonia Mundi USA or through
many record stores and some online book and record sellers (including here at Amazon.com). In France,
it is obtainable via Harmonia Mundi France. (See the Harmonia Mundi Home Page
for availability in other countries.) This recording may also be ordered online from the Spanish-language site
CyberDiscos.com (based in Spain). |
