A Celestial Map of the Sky <2014>
SATB chorus, with semichorus
Specific information available for subscribers.
At least one db requires a low C.
The semichorus [min 4.4.4.4] should about a quarter the size of the main chorus, and is drawn from the main chorus.
The work is inspired by two woodcuts of Albrecht Dürer from 1515: the oldest printed European star charts.
