The tune Old Hundredth is one of the best-known melodies in all Christian musical traditions and first appeared in the 1551 psalter Pseaumes Octante Trois de David, where it is used as a setting for a version of Psalm 134; it is usually attributed to the French composer Louis Bourgeois (c.1510 - c.1560). The melody was then used in 1561 by the Scots clergyman, William Kethe in Sternhold and Hopkins’ Psalter for his paraphrase of Psalm 100 - All People that on Earth do Dwell<(I>, which is still the most familiar hymn sung to this noble tune. When Tate and Brady’s New Version of the Psalms was published in 1696, the melody became know as the ‘old’ version - henceits current title. This arrangement presents three contrasting verses and is effective as a concert piece as well as an instrumental interlude as part of a church service or wedding.

De melodie van Old Hundredth is een van de bekendste in alle christelijke muziektradities, ze verscheen voor het eerst in Pseaumes Octante Trois de David uit 1551. De muziek wordt meestal toegeschreven aan de Fransecomponist Louis Bourgeois (ca.1510-ca.1560). In 1561werd de melodie gebruikt door de Schotse geestelijke William Kethe voor zijn parafrase van psalm 100. Later werd de melodie in Engeland bekend als de ‘oude’ versie - daar komt ookde huidige titel vandaan. Dit arrangement, met drie contrasterende coupletten, is geschikt als concertwerk of als instrumentaal tussenspel tijdens een kerkdienst of huwelijksceremonie.
Old Hundtredth ist eine der bekanntesten Melodien aller christlichen Musiküberlieferunge n. Es erschien erstmals in dem Psalter Pseaumes Octante Trois de David von 1551, wo es als Satz für zwei Psalmen verwendet wurde. Diese Bearbeitung präsentiert drei kontrastierende Strophen und kann sehr wirkungsvoll sowohl als Konzertwerk als auch als instrumentales Zwischenspiel in einem Gottesdienst oder während einer Hochzeitszeremonie eingesetzt werden.

L’h ymne Old Hundredth est une des plus célèbres hymnes chrétiennes de tous les temps. Elle fut publiée pour la première fois en 1551 dans le psautier de Genève Pseaumes octante-trois de David avec accompagnement du Psaume 134. La mélodie est fréquemment attribuée au compositeur français Louis Bourgeois (vers 1510-vers 1560).En 1561, William Kethe, un pasteur écossais, reprend la mélodie pour réaliser une paraphrase du Psaume 100, All People that on Earth do Dwell (Vous tous, habitants de la terre !), qui sera publiée dans le Psautier de Sternhold et Hopkins. Cette paraphrase reste le texte le plus chanté sur la mélodie de Bourgeois. En 1696,Nahum Tate et Nicholas Brady réalisent une Nouvelle Version des Psaumes de David (New Version of the Psalms). Par opposition la version révisée de la mélodie, la version initiale prend alors le nom de Old Hundredth, autrement dit « l’ancienne version du Psaume 100 ».Cet arrangement présente trois strophes contrastantes. Il peut être interprété comme une œuvre de concert ou comme un interlude dans le cadre d’un office religieux ou d’une cérémonie de mariage.

The Cuban composer and pianist Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963) wrote many works labelled as Afro-Cuban, and sorting them all can be difficult. While some are lost and others are scattered about, the 1930 piano suite titled Danzas Afro-Cubanas, a collection of six of the dances, remains a core group in the style. La Comparsa (Carnival Procession) is the sixth dance in the suite, and it is based on the traditional parade and ceremony that occurs during Carnival season in Cuba. This composition starts with the gradual approach of the procession and carries one through all the excitement until the last faint notes of the departing parade die away in the distance. This version for full orchestra has been arranged by Morton Gould (1913-1996).

Based on the traditional American shaped-note melody The Promised Land (first published in the 1800's), Beyond the Stars captures the spirit of the early American church musicians who voiced their enthusiasm for life and the freedom of worship through both vocal and instrumental music. The music features several mini-variations wrapped up in four large variations (Fast, Fast, Slow, Fast-recapitulation). The composer has created new thematic material for each variation by excerpting motifs from three separate phrases of the original shaped-note melody. A stunning and powerful work for winds.
