| | Chorale setting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Plainchant, associated with the Catholic church, was largely replaced with choral music sung in the vernacular language—usually German—and the corresponding musical forms from Catholic countries, such as the motet, were also replaced with forms which used as their basis the chorale melodies instead of the plainsong from which much of the motet repertory was derived. | | | A chorale setting is any of a very wide variety of musical compositions, almost entirely of Protestant origin, which use a chorale as their basis. | | | These chorale tunes were set musically in an extraordinary number of ways, from the time of the Protestant Reformation to the present day. |

| | The chorale concerto is a sacred vocal piece based on a chorale; composers include Praetorius, Schein and Scheidt. | | | The texts and music of many early chorales were adapted from pre-Reformation hymns, antiphons etc, and from secular songs. | | | After 1600 melodies were written by J.

| | Simone Guiducci - Chorale - english |
| | Chorale marks a significant step on in Guiducci's pursuit of folk/jazz hybrid forms, a quest he has been on for several years now and which his previous album, the delightful Cantador showed to be rich in potential. | | | What distinguishes the tracks on Chorale is the attention to melody, heightened by some refined, delicate arrangements that weave a sophisticated tapestry which is at the same time extremely hummable. | | | But his role as director takes nothing away from his own qualities as a musician, as he demonstrates in the string of limpid solos that punctuate the record. |
