    Cracking a Centuries-Old Tradition hen I went to Cambridge, WEngland, on sabbatical in 2013–14, I never dreamed I would wind up conducting one of the world’s great choirs, and pos- sibly changing the way they sing early music. My project for the year was to write a follow-up to Shakespeare’s Songbook (Norton, 2004), my study of all the songs sung, quoted, or alluded to in the plays of Shakespeare. The sequel is a broader look at songs in English Equal Temperament Ruined Harmony (and by Ross W. why you should care) (Norton, 2007); one Duffin Renaissance comedy, from the on Just Intonation in the Renaissance; one 15th century through the plays of on keyboard temperament; and one on Just Intonation in the 18th century.

In fact the Christmas season ends on February 2, with the celebration of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple, or Candlemas, and the themes of light from darkness, of God with us and the joy of sharing in the life of God are reflected in the liturgy and music of the season, together with a new understanding of what humanity’s new dignity means for all of us. We hope very much that you will join us when you can.

    KING’S COLLEGE CHAPEL A FESTIVAL OF NINE LESSONS AND CAROLS Christmas Eve 2017 at 3 pm Welcome to this special service. We are very grateful to you for coming to share with us in this great occasion which is an act of worship for us here in Chapel as well as for the millions who will join us around the world. Before the service begins, please note the following requests: To a radio audience, coughing is a particular distraction, much more so than to others in the Chapel. You are therefore asked to keep any such sounds to an absolute minimum, and to make sure that bags, sticks etc. are placed safely on the floor. Please double-check that your mobile phone is turned off. The same applies to chiming watches or other devices which are likely to be heard by sensitive microphones. Please put your contribution to the collection, which goes to support the work of the Chapel, in the Gift Aid envelope that you will find in this order of service, and add it, duly completed, to the collection as you leave. In the unlikely event of an emergency requiring us to evacuate the Chapel please follow the directions of the stewards, and remain as quiet and calm as possible. Finally, I would like to wish you a very Happy Christmas and invite you to join us for any of our choral services in the future, in particular our Sung Eucharist with Carols at 11.00 am on Christmas Day.

  • The Choral Music of Francis Grier
    HUTCHENS II, ROBERT BENJAMIN, D.M.A. The Choral Music of Francis Grier. (2006) Directed by Dr. William P. Carroll. 111 pp. English composer Francis John Roy Grier (b. 1955) has a large and mostly unexplored opus. He has composed sixty-three works including thirty-nine for chorus, nine for organ, six for voice, three for violoncello, an opera, a string quartet, and one each for trumpet, viola, piano, clarinet and speaker, and vocal duet. His compositions synthesize modern British compositional practices with those of other Western composers while paying homage to the various characteristics of the music of the East. Grier’s music is unique, most notably, because of his combination of English cathedral music, French impressionism, and Indian musical elements. This document includes a brief sketch of the life and a detailed examination of the choral works of Francis Grier. In addition to this author’s analysis, the primary sources for this document are interviews with Francis Grier and the commissioners of his works. Chapter I of this study includes a brief biography of Francis Grier’s life. This includes details of his formal education, past and current musical positions, and discussion of his mid-life career change to becoming a psychoanalyst. Chapter II provides a detailed description of Grier’s a cappella works organized alphabetically; each work is discussed individually. Chapter III presents a similar analysis of the remainder of Grier’s small-scale, accompanied choral works. Chapter IV presents a summary of Grier’s compositional style and conclusion. Four appendices complete this study: Appendix A lists Grier’s choral works by title; Appendix B, by composition date; and Appendix C, by performing forces.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 23, 2017 Early Music Vancouver Presents the Celestial Sounds and Angelic Voices of Globally Celebrated Choir of King’s College, Cambridge A choir with a history spanning over 600 years shares a programme chronicling more than 500 years of sacred and secular song Vancouver, BC – Early Music Vancouver (EMV), proudly presents one of the world’s most respected and recognized choral ensembles, The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge at the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts, March 26, 2017 at 2pm in the Chan Shun Concert Hall. In a rare Vancouver appearance, revered Director of Music, Dr. Stephen Cleobury, will lead the iconic choir of Men and Boys in a mixed programme of repertoire from across the centuries. “Founded by King Henry VI in 1441, The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge has been a center for musical excellence for over 600 years. Its alumni include literally hundreds of important musicians who, in their time as choir members, received a unique and rigorous training preparing them for professional careers in music,” explained Matthew White, Early Music Vancouver Artistic Director. “The contributions of this institution to international-music making have been profound. For many years, Vancouver’s very own music scene was lucky enough to be led by an ex-choral scholar at King’s College Cambridge. Choral Conductor, Bruce Pullan, a beloved figure in this city, was President of the Vancouver Academy of Music from 1993 to 1997, Professor and Head of Choral Music at the University of British Columbia, and conductor of the Vancouver Bach Choir.
