Choral Song On Colossians 1: 15-16 and 17-18 by Thomas R. Schadl

Christ Is Exactly Like God By Thomas R. Schadl


Based on Colossians 1: 15-16, the music is about the supremacy of Christ. The piece is suitable for church service, and may be sung on Christ The King, New Year's Day, Church Anniversary, Easter Sunday and other religious events. The work may be sung at choral-singing events. When learning this piece, attention is paid to timing and pitch; applying the piano or organ accompaniment while the choir sings the notes before singing the lyrics would be helpful to develop the feel the music, as this work is sung without any keyboard accompaniment.  



God's Son Was Before All Else By Thomas R. Schadl


Based on Colossians 1: 17-18, the work is about Christ being the head of the church, and is written using 16th century contrapuntal techniques that were applied by Palestrina, William Byrd and other composers. Other than being suitable for church service, this choral, which is performed without any keyboard accompaniment, may be sung at choral-singing events or at hymn-sing festivals. Attention is paid to timing and pitch; applying the piano or organ accompaniment while the choir sings the notes before singing the lyrics would be helpful to develop the feel the music.

Finale From Three Pieces For String Quartet By Thomas R. Schadl

The Finale From Three Pieces For String Quartet, like the Moderato and Adagio versions, consists of B G# A C theme, the motive that unifies the three pieces. In addition, the middle section includes D E flat C B motive that signifies the signature of Dmitri Shostakovich, and B flat A C B that represents BACH. Both motives are treated contrapuntally. This work is suitable for recital, as well as educational use that stresses on contrapuntal treatment of motives and the resolution of ambiguous tonality to the key of E Major.
