Tomas Luis de Victoria (15481611) is widely considered the greatest Spanish Renaissance composer and one of the most influential musicians of his time. Included in his oeuvre are two settings of the Pange lingua, both produced in 1581. This motet is excerpted from the first of those and incorporates the original Roman melody, or cantus firmus. (He composed his second Pange lingua based on a Spanish melody.) The baritones anchor the motet by singing the tune in augmentation. This line should be intoned with a flowing, legato articulation that incorporates subtle phrasing and text stresses. The more rhythmic tenor and bass lines complement the melody and illustrate the hopeful nature of its text. Singing this piece with two pulses per measure will encourage a steady and vital performance. Composers provided minimal performance details in their scores during this period in music history, so I added a time signature, bar lines, dynamics, and metronome markings in order to facilitate performances that musicologists believe mimic those of Victorias time. It should be noted that dynamics are largely subjective, so performers may make alternative choices. Each tenuto indicates word stress; the most musical performances will incorporate gentle crescendos and decrescendos before and after each of them. Lastly, using minimal vibrato, especially at cadences, will imbue this wonderful motet with style and clarity. PRONUNCIATION GUIDE Victoria received much of his training in Italy, therefore making Italianate Latin most appropriate. Pure vowels are critical to correct pronunciation, and those phonemes remain constant without exceptions. The most problematic of the vowels is o, which sounds similar to the English words bought and got. The letter t should be produced dentally: lift the tongue to the top of the mouth as in English, but aspirate less on the release. All occurrences of s should be soft and never hardened to [z], such as in praise. Verbum caro, panem verum, [v??bum k??? p?n?m v?rum] verbo carnem efficit: fitque sanguis Christi merum.

Chris t, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed! The living God has poured out precious blood to reclaim us, His people. This blueprint is the heart of the gospel, and Jay Rouse and Rose Aspinall have made that incredible gift central to the creation of this musical. Beginning with Jay's modern setting of the beloved hymn Crown Him with Many Crowns to the triumphant, gospel-infused finale, He's Risen, Hallelujah!, the work of the cross is celebrated and reverenced with emotion, warmth, sorrow, and rejoicing. The anchor song, It Took a Lamb, is a classic from Geron Davis, while This is How We Know What Love Is provides an original offering that tells the story and excitement of running to the tomb and finding the stone rolled away. Your congregation will want to sing along with The Blood of Jesus Medley and will be drawn into worship by There is a Fountain. These six very accessible songs can be used in their entirety or across the Easter season as a beautiful 30-minute work.

And It Came to Pass, Emmanuel: A compelling musical triumph that invites the listener on a journey that ultimately leads to worship of the Christ Child. The text of the Christmas story blends seamlessly with original narrative and exquisite lyric writing from Rose Aspinall, and Jay Rouse's incredible ability to fashion original melodies and arrange Christmas favorites with nuance and passion is on full display. The musical opens with an ethereal underscore that leads effortlessly into a 6/8 interpretation of Adeste Fideles, followed directly by the theme song and anchor ballad for the musical, And It Came to Pass. Also included are a song written specifically for this work that gives voice to Joseph's fears and longings; a traditional gospel setting of the all-time favorite Jesus, What a Wonderful Child; a syncopated, upbeat angel and shepherd announcement song titled Fire in the Sky; and a tender worship moment at the manger called Jesus, Prince of Peace. With a little something for everyone, this creative work is sure to be an important part of your Christmas season.
