  • Requiem Mass Readings
    READINGS FOR REQUIEM MASSES ST. BERNADETTE’S PARISH BELFAST Preparation for the Requiem Mass This is the central celebration for the deceased and is similar in structure to the Sunday Mass. There are a number of areas of preparation. Readings Please choose a First Reading, a Psalm, and if desired a Second Reading from the appropriate sections. If there is music the Psalm may be sung. The priest will choose an appropriate Gospel. Those who undertake to read should genuinely be capable of proclaiming these powerful words and not likely to be overcome by the emotion of the occasion. Prayer of the Faithful As with the readings, those who undertake these prayers should be genuinely capable of doing so. Offertory The gifts of bread and wine (only) may be brought to the Altar by family members Music It is never appropriate for secular songs or music to be player as part of the Sacred Liturgy. There is a list of suitable hymns in this booklet. Homily This will principally be on the paschal mystery of death and resurrection. However the priest may also say a few words about the deceased. For this he would welcome information from the family about the deceased’s qualities in preparation for the homily. FIRST READINGS The Old Testament The Old Testament is an indispensable part of Sacred Scripture. Its books are divinely inspired and retain a permanent value, for the Old Covenant has never been revoked. Indeed, the economy of the Old Testament was deliberately so oriented that is should prepare for and declare in prophecy the coming of Christ, redeemer of all men.

  • [Program Notes for the Gift of Life, by Pamela Grooms] John Rutter Was Born in London in 1945 and Received His First Musical
    [Program notes for The Gift of Life, by Pamela Grooms] John Rutter was born in London in 1945 and received his first musical education as a chorister at Highgate School. He went on to study music at Clare College, Cambridge, where he wrote his first published compositions and conducted his first recording while still a student. His compositional career has embraced both large and small-scale choral works, orchestral and instrumental pieces, a piano concerto, two children’s operas, music for television, and specialist writing for such groups as the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble and the King’s Singers. His larger choral works, Gloria (1974), Requiem (1985), Magnificat (1990), Psalmfest (1993) and Mass of the Children (2003) have been performed many times in Britain, North America, and a growing number of other countries. From 1975 to 1979 he was Director of Music at Clare College, whose choir he directed in a number of broadcasts and recordings. After giving up the Clare post to allow more time for composition, he formed the Cambridge Singers as a professional chamber choir primarily dedicated to recording, and he now divides his time between composition and conducting. In 1996 the Archbishop of Canterbury conferred a Lambeth Doctorate of Music upon him in recognition of his contribution to church music. He was honored in the 2007 Queen’s New Year Honours List, being awarded a CBE for services to music. (www.johnrutter.com) John Rutter’s long-awaited new major work The Gift of Life is a six-movement choral celebration of the living earth, of creation, and of life itself, offering a kaleidoscope of moods from contemplative and prayerful to majestic and inspirational.

  • Program Notes
    The theme of this concert, “Reflections,” finds its way into every crevice of the program: reflections in the water, reflections on love and loss, on death, and on the transcendent affirmation of life. Both featured composers--John Rutter and Gwyneth Walker—write unabashedly tonal and accessible, audience-pleasing music. Both are prolific by modern standards, their music widely performed. (Rutter may be the most frequently performed and highly cherished composer of church anthems in the English-speaking world). And both draw special inspiration from spirituality, though in ecumenical ways that transcend denomination and religious doctrine. Despite his upbringing in the Church of England, Rutter has described himself (in a 2003 interview on 60 Minutes) as not particularly religious, yet inspired by the spirituality of sacred verses and prayers. For her part, Walker has credited her Quaker upbringing for the direct expression, pragmatism, and studied simplicity of her works, yet likewise distances herself from specific doctrine. As with Rutter, her generalized spiritual vision is the well-spring of her inspiration: “If your eye is on something a little higher, a general feeling that you might be in touch with something large, you do have incoming energy and inspiration.” John Rutter-Requiem (1985) Born in 1945, John Rutter’s musical education was as a chorister, his future interests as a composer shaped by singing as a choirboy. At 17, he participated in the world premiere of Britten’s War Requiem, by 18 he had published one of his most popular Christmas carols, the ear-worm “Shepherd’s Pipe Carol,” and, while singing in the choir as a music major at Clare College, he encountered many of the leading figures of the British compositional and choral singing worlds that would influence his professional and compositional life.

  • Brahms's Ein Deutsches Requiem and the Transformation From
    MCDERMOTT, PAMELA D. J., DMA. The Requiem Reinvented: Brahms‘s Ein deutsches Requiem and the Transformation from Literal to Symbolic. (2010) Directed by Dr. Welborn Young. 217 pp. Johannes Brahms was the first composer to claim the requiem genre without utilizing the Catholic Missa pro defunctis text. Brahms compiled passages from Luther‘s Bible for his 1868 Ein deutsches Requiem, texts that focused on comfort for the living rather than judgment and pleas for mercy on behalf of the deceased. The absence of the traditional text and the change in message created a discrepancy between the genre named in the title and the language and content of the text, and engendered debate concerning the work‘s genre classification. This unresolved debate affects understanding about the development of the genre after 1868. This study applied semiotic theory to the question of genre classification for Ein deutsches Requiem. Marcel Danesi‘s The Quest for Meaning: A Guide to Semiotic Theory and Practice (2007) outlined a method for organizing information relevant to encoded meaning in signifiers such as signs, symbols, and icons. This theory was applied to Ein deutsches Requiem in order to uncover and document encoded meaning behind the word ―requiem‖ in Brahms‘s title. Robert Chase‘s Dies Irae: A Guide to Requiem Music (2003) and Memento Mori: A Guide to Contemporary Memorial Music (2007) provided data from the earliest requiem manuscripts to twenty-first century requiems. Analysis of these data resulted in clearly defined systems of convention related to the genre over time. Identification of the specific practices of requiem composers by era was foundational for an accurate description of the genre both before and after Ein deutsches Requiem.

  • Bach's Requiem Mass, by Ed Kotski
    Bach's Well Tempered Psalter Copyright 2004, 2011 by Ed Kotski, All Rights Reserved Bach's Secret Bach had a secret way of writing music, and shortly after surviving the attacks of September 11, 2001, I discovered what it was. He frequently used liturgical texts, and sometimes their associated Gregorian melodies, as frameworks for his instrumental pieces, the way a builder uses blueprints and scaffolding when putting up a cathedral. Today, we can work backwards, and by trial and error find the words Bach used. Once we've found the words, we can test a candidate Gregorian melody to see how things go together. For more on Bach's relationship to 9 - 11 - 2001, see www.jsbachfoa.org for my articles on the Goldberg Variations and on the World Trade Center attack. Latin and Music Latin is the natural language of music for three reasons: First, it is rich in pleasant sounding syllables; Second, its accents lend themselves to settings with and without regular meter; and Third, it comes with a huge library of music and words which make excellent templates for new compositions. In simple terms, Latin sounds good when it's sung and there's lots of it out there just waiting to be used. (I originally said "just begging", which is a good expression until I realized that Latin should never beg - never. Shame on me.) We take for granted the Latin settings of the B Minor Mass and the Magnificat, but Bach also relied heavily, although not exclusively, on Latin texts as inspiration for his instrumental music.
