Re: OFF: Help from native English speakers (epsecially if speaking German)

[calvin mitcham]

ok, just my guesses...

 

sometimes, we will just call 4 voice arrangements "SATB music", for soprano, alto, tenor, and bass.
 

we might call a pleading, begging prayer "earnest prayer"

 

we might say "omnipotent God" for the last one.

Dear English speaking LilyPonders, (especially if you know some German)

the choir I used to sing with publishes a CD. We'd like to create the information booklet in 3 languages, Hungarian, German and English
Could you please help me finding the best words for the following:

- how would you call the 4-voice arrangements of hymns used in presbiterian liturgy. Just "hymn arrangement"? (Choralsatz in German)
- what is a good way for translating the German "inständiges flehen", meaning something like pleading, devoted praying
- what is a good way of translating the German "ewig reicher Gott", meaning something like God, who has power forever. (perhaps a common English version already exists for this song)

It would be of very much help if you could suggest me some translations,

Thank you,

Bert
