Advent-Lessons-And-Carols-2019.Pdf THE PARISH OF ST. VINCENT FERRER AND T ATHERINE OF IENA S . C S The Very Reverend Walter C. Wagner, O.P., Pastor James D. Wetzel, Director of Music and Organist ADVENT LESSONS AND CAROLS Sunday, December 15, 2019 3:00 PM The four weeks of Advent look to Christ’s coming—in meekness and mercy at his Incarnation and in judgement and glory at the end of time. During this season of expectancy and anticipation, the Church focuses our attention on the Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament through which the ancient people of God were taught to hope for their Savior so that we can understand God’s new covenant, not as an abolishment of the ancient Law or the Prophets, but rather as a fulfillment of them. The lessons of today’s service survey the message of these Prophets of the Advent, with each emphasizing a different aspect of the Messiah’s nature (i.e. his restoration of Israel; his association with the Holy City; his conception in the Virgin; his humble birth in the ‘House of Bread’; his radiant joy; his justice; and his lineage as King). A retiring free-will offering will be accepted. Thank you for your generosity. A reception follows in St. Dominic’s Hall on the second floor of the Priory. All are cordially invited. Because of this Service, Vespers will not be sung this afternoon at St. Vincent Ferrer. PRELUDE Alexandre Guilmant March on a Theme by Handel, Op. 15, No. 2, ‘Marche Religieuse’ [Lift up your heads] (1837-1911) The People stand to sing.

CAROL Sir Richard Rodney Bennett Susanni (No. 5 from FIVE CAROLS) (1936-2012) A little child there is yborn, It fell upon the high midnight. Eia, eia, susanni, susanni, susanni. The stars they shone both fair and bright. And he sprang out of Jesse’s thorn, The angels sang with all their might. Alleluya, alleluya, To save all us that were forlorn. Now Jesus is the childes name, Three kings there came with their presents, And Mary mild she is his dame, Of gold and myrrh and frankincense, And so our sorrow’s turned to game. As clerkès sing in their sequence. Now sit we down upon our knee, And pray we to the Trinity, Our help and succor for to be. ~Anonymous, 15th century The People stand. COLLECT of December 17th V.

The People sit. 4 SECOND LESSON Isaiah 6:1-11 read by Thomas Mirus God reveals his glory to the prophet and calls him to be his messenger. CAROL Sir John Stainer (1840-1901) I saw the Lord, sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple. Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. O Trinity! O Unity! Be present as we worship Thee, And with the songs that angels sing Unite the hymns of praise we bring. Amen. ~Isaiah 6:1-4 Ave colenda Trinitas: Anonymous, 11th century Latin hymn; trans.

As ancient seers imparted The Virgin Mary brought us From Jesse’s holy race. The branch of which we sing.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. The People sit. 8 FOURTH LESSON Micah 4:1-8 read by Lauretta Bruno The mount of the Lord’s house shall be established as the highest mountain. CAROL Charles Wood (1866-1926) O thou, the central orb of righteous love, Pure beam of the Most High, eternal Light, Of this our wint’ry world, thy radiance bright Awakes new joy in faith, hope soars above.

Its overarching concerns trace the interrelation between immigration, identity and creativity within a Welsh Trans-Atlantic context. Braids of Song is a mixed-genre collection of stories that acknowledges the preciousness of culture; in particular, the music, which is both able to cross different linguistic boundaries and to breach those between melody and language itself. The stories are shared through four intertwined narrative strands in a mixture of literary styles, ranging from creative non-fiction essays and poems to dramatic monologues.

Ina Boyle inhabits a unique space in twentieth-century music in Ireland as the first resident Irishwoman to write a symphony. If her name conjures any recollection at all to scholars of British music, it is most likely in connection to Vaughan Williams, whom she studied with privately, or in relation to some of her friends and close acquaintances such as Elizabeth Maconchy, Grace Williams, and Anne Macnaghten. While the appearance of a biography may seem somewhat surprising at first glance, for those more aware of the growing interest in Boyle’s music in recent years, it was only a matter of time for her life and music to receive a more detailed and thorough examination.

  • Septuagesima, Third Sunday Before Lent – 9Th February 2020
    1 Music Notes: Septuagesima, Third Sunday before Lent – 9th February 2020 It is difficult to believe that it is already just over seven years since the death of Richard Rodney Bennett (1936–2012) – he contrived to expire on Christmas Eve 2012. He was a remarkable composer and performer. As a student at the Royal Academy, he studied with Howard Ferguson and Lennox Berkeley, although perhaps with little evidence of this in his later works. While at the Academy (where he would later teach himself), he struck up a good relationship with the British avant garde composer Cornelius Cardew, before going to study with Boulez in Paris, who impressed him deeply, although not permanently. At that time, he was much taken with Boulez’s music, and with it, the entire serialist school. “Serial” here refers to a style of composition in which (in its classic version) a sequence of notes is defined – usually not something that most people would call a “tune” in the conventional sense – and the composer then uses this as the “input” for a work, manipulating the so-called “tone row” in a variety of ways to form the structure of the music. To be rather blunt, this doesn’t work well for many people, and it is often what people mean when they speak of “squeaky gate music”. Still, it became a very important compositional device for many years in the hands of a large number of composers. For a time, it almost succeeded in knocking most other approaches to composition out of the way. In recent years, this has changed again.
