Description

Brilliant choral manuscript for ‘Credo’

Russian Romantic composer (1864–1956) who worked during a transitional era in the history of Russian music. Expansive musical manuscript penned within an off-white 10.5 x 13.75 booklet consisting of seven staved sheets, signed and titled on the front cover, “A. Gretchaninoff, Credo, pour Alto-Solo et choeur-mixte a capella (Piano on Vogue ad libitum),” and then again on the top of the first page, “A. Gretchaninoff, Credo.” On each sheet, Gretchaninov has intricately penned moderato choir parts on fourteen staves, listing them as “Alto-Solo,” “Soprano,” “Alti,” “Tenor,” “Bassi,” and “Piano on Vogue (ad libitum),” adding copious lyrics and instructions throughout. In fine condition, with a few short edge tears and general overall handling wear. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
