Original anthem This Communion original from Joel Raney speaks through the voice of Christ saying, come and follow me; my life I give so you may live. Useful for any Communion service, it is particularly useful during the season of Lent and Holy Week as it builds to the scene at Calvary with the words, Father, let this cup please pass from me. Choirs will appreciate the melodic lines and the intensity that it builds to before finally returning to the key phrase, think of me and remember.

Terra Nostra focuses on the relationship between our planet and mankind, how this relationship has shifted over time, and how we can re-establish a harmonious balance. The oratorio is divided into three parts:Part I: Creation of the World celebrates the birth and beauty of our planet. The oratorio begins with creation myths from India, North America, and Egypt that are integrated into the opening lines of Genesis from the Old Testament. The music surges forth from these creation stories into “God’s World” by Edna St. Vincent Millay, which describes the world in exuberant and vivid detail. Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “On thine own child” praises Mother Earth for her role bringing forth all life, while Walt Whitman sings a love song to the planet in “Smile O voluptuous cool-breathed earth!” Part I ends with “A Blade of Grass” in which Whitman muses how our planet has been spinning in the heavens for a very long time.Part II: The Rise of Humanity examines the achievements of mankind, particularly since the dawn of the Industrial Age. Lord Alfred Tennyson’s “Locksley Hall” sets an auspicious tone that mankind is on the verge of great discoveries. This is followed in short order by Charles Mackay’s “Railways 1846,” William Ernest Henley’s “A Song of Speed,” and John Gillespie Magee, Jr.’s “High Flight,” each of which celebrates a new milestone in technological achievement. In “Binsey Poplars,” Gerard Manley Hopkins takes note of the effect that these advances are having on the planet, with trees being brought down and landscapes forever changed. Percy Bysshe Shelley’s “A Dirge” concludes Part II with a warning that the planet is beginning to sound a grave alarm.Part III: Searching for Balance questions how we can create more awareness for our planet’s plight, re-establish a deeper connection to it, and find a balance for living within our planet’s resources. Three texts continue the earth’s plea that ended the previous section: Lord Byron’s “Darkness” speaks of a natural disaster (a volcano) that has blotted out the sun from humanity and the panic that ensues; contemporary poet Esther Iverem’s “Earth Screaming” gives voice to the modern issues of our changing climate; and William Wordsworth’s “The World Is Too Much With Us” warns us that we are almost out of time to change our course. Contemporary/agrarian poet Wendell Berry’s “The Want of Peace” speaks to us at the climax of the oratorio, reminding us that we can find harmony with the planet if we choose to live more simply, and to recall that we ourselves came from the earth. Two Walt Whitman texts (“A Child said, What is the grass?” and “There was a child went forth every day”) echo Berry’s thoughts, reminding us that we are of the earth, as is everything that we see on our planet. The oratorio concludes with a reprise of Whitman’s “A Blade of Grass” from Part I, this time interspersed with an additional Whitman text that sublimely states, “I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love…”My hope in writing this oratorio is to invite audience members to consider how we interact with our planet, and what we can each personally do to keep the planet going for future generations. We are the only stewards Earth has; what can we each do to leave her in better shape than we found her?

The cantata for the 20th Sunday after Trinity. Ah! I see now, as I to the wedding bidden, BWV 162 was first performed on 25 October 1716 in the Castle church at Weimar. During the first year in his position as Thomaskantor, Bach made a revival performance of the cantata on 10 October 1723. For this Leipzig version he added an additional obbligato voice in the first movement and in the final chorale he added a Corno da tirarsi, which played colla-parte with the soprano. However, we do not know what this mysterious instrument looked like. For performances today we recommend using a trumpet or a slide trumpet. The cantata begins not with an introductory chorus, but rather with a sonorous bass aria with a string accompaniment and obbligato trumpet. The following movements, movement 2 through 5, are also performed by vocal soloists. The third movement, a soprano aria, presents a peculiarity: the obbligato wind parts were not contained in the original version of this cantata. Our edition offers a reconstruction for the flute, made by the famous Bach interpreter and expert, Masaaki Suzuki. Score available separately - see item CA.3116200.

Program Notes: None But The Lonely Heart is a song from Tchaikovsky's Six Romances, Op. 6 for voice and piano. The song is a setting in Russian translation of Goethe's poem Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt, which has attracted many composers, most famously Franz Schubert. This is my second orchestration of music by Tchaikovsky, the first being Andante Cantabile from his String Quartet No. 1. I tried to make these transcriptions sound as if they had been orchestrated by the composer himself - as is also the case with my transcriptions of music by Rachmaninoff, Janacek, Bizet, and Revueltas. This is my natural tendency, following the spirit ofthe music. Jose Serebrier Comments: Orchestrated from Tchaikovsky's Six Romances, Op. 6, No. 6.

Following the ravishing success of their opera â27,â the team of librettist Royce Vavrek and composer Ricky Ian Gordon received a commission from the Houston Grand Opera to create a Christmas opera for December 2017. The charming and moving fruit of their new collaboration is an operatic setting of the Christmas story which began as a short book by Gail Rock, later expanded for television. Using a cast of 5 principals and chorus, the 80-minute work is framed as a flashback to the childhood of a girl whose family tragedy deprived her of growing up with joy and Christmas spirit until another life-changing event miraculously transformed her life.

If you are looking to work on the musicality of your ensemble this year, look no further than this beautiful new piece from composer George Sweet. Lush harmonies and cascading sounds make this a wonderful piece of music. It is contemporary and fresh and uses all of the forces of the string orchestra to great effect. An elegant choice for your next concert or festival performance.The title, A Silent Echo, refers to the lasting influence, or echo, that a singular event can have on the period of time following it. These echoes can result from events which range from triumphant to tragic. The resulting echo has a lasting influence, which can still be felt, on both private and public levels, long after the causal event has transpired. The piece opens with a series of inverted pyramid chords. Make sure that each voice is balanced properly with the others, so that all of the notes of the resulting chord blend together evenly. The main theme appears at m. 9 in the first violins. Once again, be careful to balance this section so that the resulting dissonances fit within the chord. The second violins play the melody at m. 19, which leads to a short B-section at m. 29. Be careful not to lose momentum when playing the pyramid chords directly preceding the B-material. After both A- and B-themes are presented again, new material occurs at m. 54 and leads the piece through a vibrant C-section that reaches a climax at m. 63. Both A- and B-themes are then restated which brings the piece to a quiet and subdued close.
