BWV249 Easter Oratorio

For the choir, all the choral parts are supplied with :

• a single voice part highlighted on piano over the orchestral accompaniment.
• all four parts played together on piano, with the orchestral accompaniment
• orchestral accompaniment with assistance played on the organ
• orchestral accompaniment with no assistance for voices

For the soloists :

• accompaniment with the soloist parts played on wind instruments (a different instrument for each voice)
• are the duets, playing one of the two vocal parts only with the accompaniment. Useful for identifying a single part, or for hearing the other part while rehearsing
• orchestral accompaniment, with no assistance for voices

Complete Work :

• All the sections with assistance for choir and soloists with orchestral accompaniment.
• All the sections without assistance. Just as the orchestra plays. NB the orchestra sometimes plays the same as the voices, so there can be some assistance.
