Lajos Bárdos (1899-1986), composer, musicologist, teacher, and choral conductor, laid down, together with Kodály, the foundations of 20th-century Hungarian choral music. Through his work as a conductor, he raised the standards of Hungarian choral singing to an international level in a few decades. His compositions were directed towards cultivating Hungarian choral life: they draw on Renaissance polyphony and Hungarian folk music, following Kodály and Bartók. His works, which are models of choral writing, deal sensitively with Hungarian prosody and radiate an inner harmony and vigor. A selection of his most popular choral works has been published with English texts by Gail Needleman in five volumes. Contents: 1. Márkus Miklós dr.: Campfire Song 2. Kovács Márk: Stretch Thy Hands. 3. Dienes Valéria Dr.: Christmas Lullaby 4. Czikéné Lovich Ilona: Holy Christmas Night.

A simple folk-style song that works wonderfully for strings and depicts a traveling troubadour and his trained pet entertaining for their food. The broken-chord accompaniment imitates the organ grinder as he sings while the marmot performs tricks for the listeners. It is a beautiful melody that moves between A minor and C major. Both upper strings and cellos take turns on the melody!

As musical editor of the 1906 edition of The English Hymnal, the British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams forever changed hymnody both with his stunning original hymn tunes, which are some of the most beloved of the twentieth century and with his arrangements of folk tunes and earlier sacred melodies into hymns. This collection by Douglas E. Wagner celebrates Ralph Vaughan Williams's tremendous contribution to sacred song with a variety of pieces: some based on his original hymn tunes (like SINE NOMINE or DOWN AMPNEY) and some based on tunes that his arrangements made popular (like HYFRYDOL or BRYN CALFARIA).
