Bunk Sacred Choral Music (Op.47, Op.72, Op.77, Op.83)

First ever publication of Bunk’s choral works

With a detailed foreword and critical commentary (Ger/Eng)

Extension of repertoire for ambitious choirs

Choral music in the late Romantic style

The public awareness towards Gerard Bunk’s organ works is growing due to concerts and publications which have appeard. His choral music, however, has so far remained virtually unknown. This first Urtext edition presents his four most important choral works (op. 47, op. 72, op. 77 and op. 83), ranging from three-part female choir right through to eight-part mixed choir. These works are ideal for ambitious choirs who wish to broaden their repertoire to include appealing music in the late Romantic style and which can be performed in concerts as well as church services.
