Now Kreek’s music has the chance of Cappella Romana to direct Einojuhani Rautavaara’s being recognized as an important contribution to the Vigilia (All-Night Vigil). Timo Nuoranne has choral alongside that of fellow Estonians Veljo championed that work in particular throughout Tormis and Arvo Pärt. his career, having performed it with both Finnish Kreek’s Psalms take pride of place throughout this and non-Finnish choirs, and made the definitive program for another reason: Cyrillus Kreek was an recording of the work with the Finnish Radio Orthodox Christian.

The for Nuoranne’s flight changes three times. However, editorial note in the score also makes no mention Nuoranne’s artist visa was only issued on the day of that the Psalms here are presented in forms regularly the first concert.

4 from Psalms 2 and 3, forming the traditional first “” from Saturday Vespers. Also featuring held pedal points that indicate a folk style, this setting uses the traditional Orthodox refrain “Alleluia” after each verse, with imitation of the refrain’s original melody cleverly imbedded into the music for the verses. The lamplighting psalms at Orthodox vespers open with the first two verses of 140 (141 Mas.). In this setting, Kreek follows the ancient (and contemporary Slavic) tradition of refrains after the verses “Hear me O Lord” (“Kuule mind oh Issand”). After the male choir takes the second verse in four-part harmony, Kreek adds additional imperative versions of the refrain “Hear me, hear me, hear me,” that give the music a personal as well as corporate tone. These three Psalms (along with Psalm 121/120 not included on this program) were completed in 1923, at the time the Estonian Orthodox Church had cut ties with the following the Russian revolution, aligning itself instead with the Patriarchate of , which allowed more use of Estonian in Orthodox services. This remains the case to this day in the contemporary Apostolic Orthodox Church of Estonia. Since Psalm 140 is normally troped with hymns to the season, we have opted to insert a festal hymn from the Latin tradition, Danish composer Per Nørgård’s setting of two stanzas from a Marian hymn for Advent “Flos ut rosa floruit.” Nørgård’s most celebrated choral work is the infamous Wie ein Kind (“Like a child”) from 1980 with texts by the schizophrenic Swiss artist Adolf Wölfli and Rainer Maria Rilke. Unlike the outbursts of Wie ein Kind this short motet gracefully floats along in a rocking motion, somehow in sync with the beating of the human heart. The stanzas of the hymn end with the refrain “nova genitura” undulating in C major, but ending unresolved on G, a non-foundational note of the chord, perhaps implying that the “nova genitura” (“new birth”) is ongoing.

Jakubov studied at the Helsinki Music Academy and worked for a while at an Orthodox seminary in an area of Karelia that was part of Finland from 1812 to 1940. In an historic Latin-rite mass the readings and psalmody, including the Alleluia, were followed by a sequence on high days. In medieval Denmark, one such sequence was “Gaudet mater ecclesia,” which was sung in honor of St. Knud Lavards (canonized in 1170). Unlike “Flos ut rosa floruit,” this setting Eric Ericson talking with Mark Powell between rehearsals, Namur, is based on the text’s traditional chant melody, Belgium, 1992 punctuated between the stanzas with a series of bell of uncompromising musical skill and virtuosity. effects on the word “gaudet” (“rejoice”). Some of that virtuosity was on display when In the place of scripture readings, we present instead Ericson came to Portland in 1983 to direct a regional a setting of New Testament verses for Advent by collegiate choir, which made a big impact on me as Swedish composer Sven-Erik Bäck.

Bäck distorts conventional tonality to create distinct, Nørgård’s Agnus Dei sets only the last section of shifting feelings in each word or phrase.

Kõik kes mind näevad hirvitad mind: All who see me mock at me, Nemad ajavad suu ammuli, ja vangutavad pead. they make mouths at me, they wag their heads; Palju vairsa on mu ümber tulnud, Many bulls encompass me, Paasani sõnnid on mu ümber päranud. strong bulls of Basan surround me; Mu rammu on kui potitürk ära kuivanud, My strength is dried up like a potsherd, Ja minu keel on mu suu lae küljes kinni, and my tongue cleaves to my jaws; Ja sa paned mind surma põrun. thou dost lay me in the dust of death.

16 I Himmelen, i Himmelen, In heav´n above, in heav´n above, Hvor Gud, vor Herre bor, Where God, our Father, dwells; Hvor saligt did at komme hen, How boundless there the blessedness! Hvor er den Glæde stor. No tongue its greatness tells; For evig, evig skal vi der There face to face, and full and free, Se Gud i Lyset som han er, Forever evermore we see: Se Herren Zebaot. Our God, the Lord of hosts!

Og Sjælen får sin Prydelse, In heav´n above, in heav´n above, Den Krone, som er sagt, God hath a joy prepared, Retfærdighedens Brudekrans, Which mortal ear had never heard, Og så den hvide Dragt. Nor mortal vision shared, O Gud, hvad Lyst at være dig nær, Which never pierced to mortal breast, At se i Lyset som Du er By mortal lips was never expressed, Dig, Herren Zebaot. O God, the Lord of hosts!
