Bethlehem Carol was the result of a commission in 2000 from the Cathedral Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The request came from the Cathedrals music director, Russell Jackson; he had very much liked the Italian Fable cum Violin Concerto (The Big Sword and the Little Broom) I had written in 1997 for the Lehigh Valley Chamber Orchestra. Russell chose the text by Charles Coffin, a French poet and educator whose hymn verses were often translated into English. My approach toward setting the poem was my usual one; that is, to translate literally the words into music (note the dips into the minor mode for the cave of Bethlehem and the child of poverty.) But most of all, I wanted to capture the sense of joy and peace brought by the arrival of the Christ Child.

I finished Psalm 23 Dominus regit me (The Lord Is My Shepherd), which inspired me musically, in 2013. This prayer of praise, being a radical act of trust in God, as Pope Benedict XVI once said, complements Credo in unum Deum. I was particularly moved by the personal tone of the Psalm author and by the landscape of life symbols that he painted. The psalmist, describing ancient nomads, compares God to a shepherd taking care of his flock. It is a hopeful metaphor of a journey in the future with kind and loving God as a guide - 'Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me.' By interpreting the text with music, I wanted to avoid emotional directness, and to present the 'trust' in a contemplative way, as if it were a kind of a prayer - meditation. -Marcel Chyrzynski, translated by Monika Rokicka.

SKU: MN.CH-1291

Composed by Richard Thompson. Graduation, 20th Century. Choral score. Laurendale Associates #CH-1291. Published by Laurendale Associates (MN.CH-1291).

Contains four pieces: 1. Fifty-Second Street Swing, 2. Remembering Billie, 3. On the Road, 4. Take Five. The following is a remembrance by the composer: Under the picture in my high school yearbook it said, Silence is golden. Lost my diploma on the way home from graduation but I knew what I wanted to be: A Big Band Pianist. Started hanging out in Manhattan on Fifty Second Street. There were seven jazz clubs in one block, between Sixth and Seventh. Couldnt drink at seventeen, so just nursed cokes at a dollar each. My salary was twenty a week. Sat by the great Art Tatum, the incredible blind pianist. My teacher accompanied Billie at the Onyx. Later, Dizzy and Bird appeared on the scene. This wonderful year passed, and I swapped my piano for a rifle. The Marines had plans for me. Where would I find a piano? Would I still be able to play? But, find them I did: in the States and even on some Pacific Islands. Sometimes you could even recognize what you were playing. Sometimes, had to kick someone off the bench. I told Kim Rich, the poet, my stories and somehow she made these wonderful lyrics with just a few phone conversations. Hey! Im immortal!!!

Features five songs, also known as St John Of The Cross (Canciones Entre El Alma Y El Esposo).

• Where can your hiding be
• But have been found again
• Of flowers and emeralds sheen
• Now, as she longaspired
• Rejoice, my love, with me

Canciones entre el alma y el esposo is a poem consisting of forty verses, reproduced below. Havingpreviously set two sections of it as separate a cappella choruses and one fortwo countertenors andstrings, I've long wanted to make a complete setting of the work and, by arranging the countertenorpiece for a cappella chorus and setting the remaining verses as two more anthems for the same forces,I'vecompleted the task. The five pieces can of course still be performed separately, or brought togetheras a twenty-five minute setting of Roy Campbell's translation from the original Spanish of this vivid andintense poem.Geoffrey Burgon, May 2008.
