  • CHRISTMAS-CAROLS-Notes-Rev.Pdf
    CHRISTMAS CAROLS Although any Christmas song might be called a ‘carol’ these days, the word actually refers to an ancient English song-form where a refrain or chorus repeated after every stanza (or verse) and is often connected to celebrations like Christmas or Easter. The word carol is derived from the Old French word carole, a circle dance accompanied by singers (in turn derived from the Latin choraula). Carol’s origins are complex and disputed. Some of our familiar Christmas carols were originally pagan songs, sung at the Winter Solstice celebrations They were very popular as dance songs from the 1150s to the 1350s, after which their use expanded as processional songs sung during festivals, while others were written to accompany religious mystery plays. Whatever the origin, composers all over Europe started writing carols but most people could not understand them since they were written and sung in Latin. This changed in the early 13th century when St. Francis of Assisi introduced Christmas songs in church services in Italy for the first time — and true Christmas carols were officially born. In Assisi’s Nativity plays, which began in 1223, actors sang songs that described the scenes in the plays. Although the choruses were sometimes in Latin, the songs were usually written in the language that people could understand. The actors composed Christmas carols to sing during their Nativity plays and, later, they would walk through the streets still singing. It didn’t take long for these plays to spread to France, Spain and the rest of Europe. The tradition of singing Christmas songs in native languages became well established.

  • Barbara Kowalik
    Studia Anglica Posnaniensia 42, 2006 A POPULAR CODE FOR THE ANNUNCIATION IN MEDIEVAL ENGLISH LYRICS BARBARA KOWALIK University of Warsaw ABSTRACT The paper deals with a popular type of the Annunciation lyric in medieval English poetry. A brief survey of the role of the angelic announcement to Mary in medieval art and culture is given. The argument then pursues several distinctive traits of this kind of lyric in a number of poems from the thirteenth through the sixteenth centuries. The distinguishing features include a tripartite structure, a common set of words, phrases, ideas and images, emphasis on singing, a spring set- ting, tryst between lovers, and the use of popular genres, particularly ballads and carols. By anal- ogy with music, it is argued that a certain popular code for the Annunciation existed, against which interesting artistic transformations of the theme were introduced. For example, the Annun- ciation was evoked in a highly compressed and allusive manner by means of but a few elements of the code. The principal elements of the alleged code derived from popular art and imagination. Their application to theological issues frequently led to the blurring of boundaries between the sacred and the profane, and between the Christian and the pagan. The paper proposes a distinction between Lent and alleluia subtypes of the Annunciation lyric. It also demonstrates how the pas- tourelle, aubade, and chanson d’aventure conventions of secular love poetry were adapted to represent the Annunciation. Finally, it suggests a connection between the lyric “At a spryng wel” and a specific statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, like the much-reverenced statue of Our Lady at Walsingham.

  • Music As Holy Preaching
    THE PARISH OF ST. VINCENT FERRER AND ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA MUSIC AS HOLY PREACHING MUSIC LIST of the SCHOLA CANTORUM and PARISH CONCERT SERIES 2017–2018 SEASON The Very Reverend Walter C. Wagner, O.P., Pastor James D. Wetzel, Director of Music and Organist Alexander Pattavina, Assistant Organist 2 INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC IN THE PARISH elcome to the Parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St. Catherine Wof Siena in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York which is administered by the Dominican Friars of the Province of St. Joseph. We are blessed with a wonderful, active music program, and we hope that this brochure will be a guide to experiencing our holy preaching more fully through music. The Solemn Mass is at the heart of the Parish’s liturgical and musical life and is the richest expression of the Church’s Holy Sacrifice. As such, it is celebrated with full ceremonial on Sundays (at 12:00 Noon at St. Vincent Ferrer), on major feast days, and to mark important occasions in the community. The Schola Cantorum, the Parish’s professional choir, sings for every Solemn Mass. Schola Cantorum is the official term used by the Catholic Church to denote a liturgical choir and literally means ‘school of singing’. The Schola chants the Latin Propers (the Entrance, Offertory, and Communion Antiphons and the Alleluia) according to the Dominican Graduale, the chant book particular to the Order of Preachers. Offertory and Communion motets follow the respective Antiphons, and on feast days a choral Mass Ordinary is offered. This broad range of repertoire surveys the very best in our treasured Catholic musical patrimony.
