Medieval Carol.
The
text of this poem is from
the Trinity Carol Roll,
an English manuscript
housed at the Wren
Library of Trinity
College, Cambridge. It is
originally in the Norfolk
dialect of Middle English
but has been modernized
for use in this setting.
Also, it's macaronic,
meaning it combines words
from two languages, the
other being Latin which
was in use by the church
when this carol was
written. The Latin
phrases come from
different parts of the
Advent/Christmas
liturgies; a sequence
called
Laetabundus, the
title of an Introit
antiphon called
Gaudeamus, and
the shepherds response in
the gospel of Luke 2:15,
Transeamus.
Latin phrase translation
source Alleluia Alleluia
Laetabundus Res miranda A
thing to be wondered at
Laetabundus Pari forma of
equal form Laetabundus
Gaudeamus Let us rejoice!
Gaudeamus Transeamus Let
us go Luke 2:15 The poet
compares the Virgin Mary
to a rose. She has a
special place among all
women in being chosen as
the mother of Jesus, and
likewise the rose has a
special place among all
flowers surpassing them
in complexity and beauty.
The music in this setting
mimics the petals of a
rose as it blooms.
Imagine the petals
unfurling over time as
does the music which
starts in unison for each
verse and expands outward
into two and three vocal
lines with increasingly
complex harmonic twists.
Word painting is employed
in several places but
none are as important as
the dramatic climax in
the fourth verse where
the shepherds along with
all the angels in heaven
proclaim Gloria in
excelsis Deo (Glory to
God on high). What a
sound that must be! On
these words the music
reaches it loudest point
as the sopranos rise to
their highest note and
the compassthe distance
between the highest and
lowest noteis at its
widest. The setting is
brought to a close as the
five Latin phrases that
finished each verse are
repeated as a coda and
musically summarize the
five verses of the
carol. The text of
