Grua, which resulted in his having to provide sacred music for the Venetian orphanage and convent he enjoyed a long-standing relation with: the Ospedale della Pietà. There are actually three versions of the work: 1) for SSAT soli, chorus and orchestra (RV 610); 2) for SSSAT soli, double chorus and two orchestras (RV 610a); and the final version (RV 611), which takes six movements from RV 610 replaces the other three movements with solos written for specific singers at the Pietà: Apollonia, la Bolognesa, Chiaretta, Ambrosina and Albetta.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p2\" style=\"margin: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 10px; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana; min-height: 12px;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"margin: 0px; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 10px; line-height: normal; font-family: Verdana;\"\u003eThis new edition by Richard W. Sargeant Jr. retains the material from the original single-chorus version (RV 610), while including the added solo material Vivaldi inserted for RV 611 as alternatives, making it eminently practical for today's choral groups. Newly engraved and based on the composer's manuscript score, this superb vocal score will be a very welcome item for professional choruses, church and school choirs along with the many fans of the great Venetian composer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Serenissima Music","offers":[{"title":"Perfect Bound","offer_id":50584955584816,"sku":"9790093004993","price":8.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.thegreatbritishbookshop.co.uk\/products\/magnificat-rv-610-611-sargeant","provider":"The Great British Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
