Advent – Christmas – Lent – Easter – Whitsun The chamber choir Ensemble Versus specialises in sacred music of the renaissance, early baroqu, the 20th century and in contemporary sacred music. They aim at original and thematically coherent dramaturgy of individual productions – sung contemplations rather than concerts. Further information on individual projects to be requested from the chorus master Vladimír Maňas. [email protected], +420777948214 www.ensembleversus.cz Joint programmes of the Ensemble Versus and the Capella Ornamentata The combination of a chamber choir, specialising in 16th and early 17th century repertoire, and of a renowned professional ensemble of renaissance wind instruments with the continuo provides an opportunity to hear the music of the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries in unique freshness and richness of the combination of voices and instruments. The joint projects return to the historical practice of interchangeable musical parts. Cornets, trombones (sackbuts) and a curtal play from the singers’ parts, while in other works they play independently. Multichoral compositions, common in Venice as well as in central Europe, counts with this variability and invites it. Capella Ornamentata (cornets, trombones/sackbuts, curtal), leader Richard Šeda Ensemble Versus (chamber choir for sacred music, Brno), leader Vladimír Maňas Marek Čermák, continuo (positive, harpsichord) Concerti Ecclesiastici The Church Year in the Works of Giovanni Gabrieli and his Contemporaries The little known two-choir works of Jacobus Handl Gallus or the motets of Jacobus Vaet – two composers active predominantly in the Czech lands – are juxtaposed with the works of the great composers Orlando di Lasso or Giovanni Gabrieli. The programme is enlarged by instrumental compositions of the early 17th century and earlier polyphonic repertoire. The result is a varied mosaic of works cutting across the entire liturgical year. For churches, this programme is ideal for the “ordinary time” (Tempus per annum) of the liturgical year.

The score calls for a large and a small choir, a chamber orchestra, soprano and basso solo, piano and organ. Soprano solo Hana Škarková, basso solo Aleš Procházka, organ Martin Jakubíček, piano Ondřej Kyas, choir Vox Iuvenalis, chamber choir Versus, conductor Jan Ocetek. The composer structured his oratorio piece in a conventional way, with an expansive apparatus. In addition to traditional parts for the large choir with orchestra (both are placed in the presbytery), the composer also makes use of contrasting passages. These are polyphonic chamber choir passages performed a capella and sung from the organ loft. The instrumental parts sound across the nave of the church. Weeping and mourning seems to have become luxury that we cannot afford today. Social conventions require that we recover immediately from the vicissitudes of life, put on a smile and get back to the practicalities of daily routine, which often crushes us out of all proportion. In such moments, such music as that inspired by the lyrics of the Stabat Mater can help us to get over those suppressed painful feelings and help us live through the experiences in the sense of the Classical catharsis – the inner conflict is resolved without suppressing; the sense is restored; the mind is cleansed. Then can we go on. – Ondřej Kyas Duration 65 minutes. A 20-piece orchestra of strings and a small wind section. Solo soprano & basso voices, organ, large and small choir, conductor. Contemporary Sacred Music: Zagar, Kyas, Graham The six-part cantata Apocalypsis Ioannis for strings, choir and solos by the Slovak composer Peter Zagar (born 1961) was written in 1997. Peter Graham (Jaroslav Šťastný) labeled the cantata, in his commentary on Slovak compositions, as surprisingly consonant. Graham’s Sonata da chiesa for strings was also composed in 1997. The choice of his Sonata for this programme of sacred music derives from the tradition of church sonatas that used to be performed during the mass in the Baroque era.

  • Dido Sings Farewell
    Miss Me But Let Me Go: Dido Sings Farewell The death speech of Dido in Aeneid IV is one of the most intensely personal and poignant speeches in all of Roman epic. Readers may argue over the tone and implication of her words, whether they suggest bitterness and resentment for her lost love and unrealized inheritance. Yet composers have generally taken her words at face value, content to wrap her adieu with suitably chastened and even brittle music. The Renaissance saw an unusual number composers drawn to Dulces Exuviae, setting most, if not all, of her words; these musicians include, in chronological order: Josquin Des Prez (c.1440 – 1521), Jean Mouton (c.1475 – 1522), Adrian Willaert (c.1490 – 1562), Jacques Arcadelt (c.1505 – c.1560), Alonso Mudarra (c.1510 – 1580), Cipriano da Rore (c.1515 – 1565), Jacobus Vaet (c.1529 - 1567), Orlandus Lassus (1532 – 1594), and Jakob Handl (1550 – 1591). All but two of these men were Franco-Flemish, and most spent some time in northern Italy; there they may have first met the Vergilian text through the music of Josquin, who spent much of his professional life in Milan and Rome. However, with the birth of opera, Dido was heard more on stage than within an intimate circle of madrigalists; consider the operas La Didone (1641) by Francesco Cavalli and Dido and Aeneas (1689) by Henry Purcell; here Vergil’s own words were abandoned for lengthier libretti by Giovanni Francesco Busenello and Nahum Tate respectively. And these latter day poets were willing to adapt and even alter Vergil to suit their own dramatic purpose: so Tate had Dido plead “Remember me, but forget my fate.” Such a verbal conceit may seem far-fetched to experienced readers of the Aeneid, but it does allow the composer to craft exceedingly poignant music.

  • The Articulation of Cultural Identity Through Psalm Motets, Augsburg 1540–1585
    THE ARTICULATION OF CULTURAL IDENTITY THROUGH PSALM MOTETS, AUGSBURG 1540–1585 Megan K. Eagen A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Anne MacNeil Tim Carter John Nádas David Crook Ruth von Bernuth © 2016 Megan K. Eagen ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Megan K. Eagen: The Articulation of Cultural Identity through Psalm Motets, Augsburg 1540–1585 (Under the direction of Anne MacNeil) In this dissertation, I analyze the social and religious climate in Augsburg from 1540–1585 through the lens of psalm motets. The period between the initial shockwave of the Reformation and the sociocultural upheavals that ultimately produced the Thirty Years War may be characterized as one of intense negotiations regarding religious freedoms. The environment encouraged and even necessitated the development of materials oriented toward specific confessional groups. At the same time, residents of biconfessional cities such as Augsburg needed to find subtle or nonconfrontative ways to express their views. Despite both nascent and deep-seated differences, Catholics and Protestants of diverse sects all used the Psalter. This study interprets selections and centonizations of musically set psalm texts as indicators of multireligious communal identities. Source materials consulted for this project include over one hundred prints and manuscripts of motets held at the Augsburg State and City Library and at the Bavarian State Library in Munich. The makeup of this repertory is defined by Augsburg’s close connection to the Habsburg dynasty: composers represented in these volumes were active almost exclusively within the bounds of the Holy Roman Empire, and many composed for imperial courts.

  • 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 2019–2020 SEASON The Very Reverend Walter C. Wagner, O.P., Pastor James D. Wetzel, Director of Music and Organist INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC IN THE PARISH Welcome to the Parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St. Catherine of Siena in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, served 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 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 2 and Communion motets follow their respective Antiphons, and in privileged seasons a choral Mass Ordinary is offered. This broad range of repertoire surveys the very best in our treasured Catholic musical patrimony.

    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 2018–2019 SEASON The Very Reverend Walter C. Wagner, O.P., Pastor James D. Wetzel, Director of Music and Organist INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC IN THE PARISH Welcome to the Parish of St. Vincent Ferrer and St. Catherine of Siena in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, served 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 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 2 and Communion motets follow the respective Antiphons, and in privileged seasons a choral Mass Ordinary is offered. This broad range of repertoire surveys the very best in our treasured Catholic musical patrimony.
