Choral Evensong
CHORAL EVENSONG 5:00 P.M. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2017 THE FIFTH SUNDAY AFTER EPIPHANY CHRIST CHURCH 118 N. Washington St. Alexandria, VA 22314 www.HistoricChristChurch.org CHORAL EVENSONG is the service of Evening Prayer with choral music. It is sung in cathedrals with choral foundations on a more or less daily basis, and in many parish churches around the world. The Prayer Book of 1662 established the pattern for Choral Evensong which remains in common usage throughout the worldwide Anglican Communion. Since the earliest Christian times, the need to mark the passing of time with prayer has been recognized. The monastic cycle of prayer began in the desert with Anthony in the fourth century and continues to this day. By the Reformation, Vespers had become an elaborate musical celebration in the evening. The English Reformation demanded that the vernacular be the language of worship and resulted in the liturgical simplicity of Thomas Cranmer’s services of Morning and Evening Prayer. The provision of music for this structure and these words was the task of men like Tallis, Byrd, Gibbons, and Tomkins, whose creativity laid the foundations of Anglican choral worship. Choral Evensong is the quintessence of such worship. The canon of music for Evensong continues to grow, with composers from around the world contributing to it. Unlike the Eucharist, which follows the movement of the Church calendar, and unlike private prayer, which follows the events of our lives, the daily office follows its own rhythm. The readings are done “in course,” and are not specifically chosen to make a particular point, and the canticles (Magnificat and Nunc dimittis) are the same each day. -

It has nurtured generations of Old Cliftonian musicians including Boris Ord, the one-handed Dr Douglas Fox (famed for his radio broadcasts and recitals), C.S. Lang, and Sir David Willcocks himself. More recent alumni organists include Charles Matthews (winner of the Franz Liszt Organ Competition), Andrew Nethsingha (Director of Music at St John’s College, Cambridge), and current Oxbridge organ scholars. All have benefited from the four-manual organ in the College chapel, still maintained by its original maker, Harrison and Harrison. Sir David Willcocks MC CBE (1919-2015) Old Cliftonian Director of Music, King’s College, Cambridge (1957-73) Present-day life at the College — daily assemblies with hymns (the congregational singing supported by the College’s 2012 Hymn Book), choral services on Sundays, and the numerous concerts and oratorios performed in the chapel with the organ — ensures that the instrument and its players remain at the heart of College life. -

Gloucester Cathedral Lay Clerks
GLOUCESTER CATHEDRAL ORGAN SCHOLARSHIP The Dean & Chapter of Gloucester Cathedral annually seek to appoint an organ scholar for each academic year. He/She will play a key role in the Cathedral music department, working closely with Adrian Partington (Director of Music), Jonathan Hope (Assistant Director of Music), Nia Llewelyn Jones (Singing Development Leader) and Helen Sims (Music Department Manager). The organ scholarship is open to recent graduates or to gap-year applicants of exceptional ability. Duties The organ scholar plays for Evensong every Tuesday, and in addition plays the organ or directs the choirs as necessary when the DoM or the ADoM is away. He/She will also play for many of the special services which take place in the Cathedral, for which additional fees are paid (see remuneration details below). The organ scholar is fully involved with the training of choristers and probationers and the teaching of theory and general musicianship. They will also be expected to help with the general administration of the music department, attending a weekly meeting and assisting other members of the department in the music office. Gloucester Cathedral Choir Today’s choir is the successor to the boys and monks of the Benedictine Abbey of St Peter, who sang for daily worship nine centuries ago. The choir of today stems from that established by Henry VIII in 1539, consisting of 18 choristers (who receive generous scholarships to attend the neighbouring King’s School), 12 lay clerks and choral scholars. The choir plays a major part in the internationally renowned Three Choirs Festival, the world’s oldest Music Festival, which dates back to 1715. -

Music Listening for the Easter Season David Hurd, Mus.D
Music Listening for the Easter Season David Hurd, Mus.D. Organist and Music Director Church of Saint Mary the Virgin, NYC This article continues a series begun during Holy Week, intended to highlight musical compositions which might normally be experienced live, but cannot be at this time due to our need to refrain from gathering. As with the two previous articles, I offer some background on selected compositions and their composers, the texts of the works, and links to YouTube performances so that the music can speak for itself. This is, of course, only a small sampling of the vast musical resources which exist, much as any liturgy is but a small piece of the worship which might be offered. My hope is that this small sampling of Easter music may be useful in focusing devotion and meditation on the great themes of this vibrant season the Church year. Prelude and Procession The late medieval hymn O filii et filiae is certainly one of the great songs of the Easter season. Its history is complex, but its words come to us clothed in a melody thought to be of French folk origin. The Hymnal 1940 (#99) presented this hymn in a nine-stanza form as translated by John Mason Neale (1818–1866). The music, as arranged by Winfred Douglas, has the triple-meter feeling of a carol. The Hymnal 1982, however, presents O filii et filiae in two distinct forms. At #203 one finds five stanzas, corresponding to stanzas 1, 2, 3, 4 and 9 of Neale’s translation in the 1940 edition. -
