This piece is ideal for use in various prayer services during the final days of the Advent season, calling us not merely to prepare a place for the stranger, but also to offer a welcome worthy of the Holy Family!

Sing a new song, Cantate Dominum, are the words that begin this energetic and celebratory piece. The opening section in 7/8 absolutely dances and thankfully returns for a joyous conclusion. The middle section poetically brings in the beauty of creation. This SATB voicing can be sung together with the SSA voicing, P1715. A great festival piece that can also be sung in worship.

A joyous text in which we are all called to dance with the energies found around us. The music matches this energy, with the piano accompaniment swirling through sixteenth note patterns within the 6/8 meter. The second stanza, God's breath, is quieter. The piano calms a bit on the third stanza, Our own amazing earth, and the fourth stanza echoes the exuberance of the first. Fun and different! Duration 3:30.

Peter Maxwell Davies' 1990 work for unaccompanied SATB choir, written for the BBC singers. Words by George Mackay Brown. 'Written for the BBC Singers, this piece requires a high level of choral expertise in its rhythms, intricate textures (though nearly always in four parts), wide-ranging vocal lines and characteristically dark but luminous harmony, impregnated with tritones and seconds. Not for the first time, Davies and George Mackay Brow follow the Stations of the Cross, though the fourteen sections are joined into a continuous slow-fast-slow musical movement, and the references to the events of Holy Week are oblique. Vocal score with piano accompaniment for rehearsal purposes.

Composed by M. Roger Holland, II. Holy Thursday, Body and Blood of Christ. In Spirit and Truth. Sacred. Octavo. 12 pages. GIA Publications #10307. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10307).

UPC: 785147030713. English. Text Source: Latin: Thomas Aquinas, 1227-1274, English para. James Quinn, SJ, 1919-2010; Translation: James Quinn. Text by Thomas Aquinas.

This edition for Holy Thursday was written to reflect African American idioms. “Pange lingua” has rhythm and motion, yet acknowledges the solemn tone of the liturgical moment. As the ritual action moves from procession to adoration and repose, the setting moves to “Tantum ergo.” Though it, too, should have motion, it is more reflective of this most solemn moment: the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The closing “Amen” ending on a perfect fifth recalls the style of ancient chant and organum.    .
