Fantasia on Christmas Carols Ralph Vaughan Williams

Matthew Johnson, Bass

This Fantasia, containing fragments of well-known holiday tunes, is founded on

the following traditional English carols:

The Truth Sent From Above (Herefordshire)

Come All You Worthy Gentlemen (Somerset)

On Christmas Night (Sussex)

Three Festive Carols for Christmas Arranged by Mark Hayes and Marvin Gaspard

Please join and sing with Chorale except where marked [CHORALE only]

[AUDIENCE AND CHORALE]

Angels we have heard on high, Sweetly singing o'er the plains;

And the mountains, in reply,

Echoing their joyous strains. Gloria in excelsis Deo! Gloria in excelsis Deo!

[CHORALE only]

See Him in a manger laid, Whom the choirs of angels praise;

Mary, Joseph, lend your aid, While our hearts in love we raise.

Gloria in excelsis Deo! Gloria in excelsis Deo!

[AUDIENCE AND CHORALE]

Angels, from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o'er all the earth;

Ye who sang creation's story, Now proclaim Messiah's birth;

Come and worship, come and worship,

Worship Christ the newborn King!

Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King;

Peace on earth, and mercy mild; God and sinners reconciled."

[AUDIENCE AND CHORALE]

Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With angelic hosts proclaim,

"Christ is born in Bethlehem!" Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!"

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!

Hail the Sun of Righteousness! Light and life to all He brings,

Ris'n with healing in His wings, Mild He lays His glory by,

Born that man no more may die, Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth.

Hark! the herald angels sing "Glory to the newborn King."

Masters in This Hall Traditional French Carol Words by William Morris Arranged by Mark Hayes

Magnificat John Rutter

Magnificat, the canticle of the Blessed Virgin Mary (Luke I: 46-55), was originally sung

during the medieval Roman rite of Vespers. After the Mass, it is the liturgical text most

often set to music. Award-winning British composer John Rutter (b. 1945) wrote this

exuberant version inspired by J. S. Bach, to reflect the celebrations throughout Europe

honoring Virgin Mary.

1. Magnificat anima mea

Magnifcat anima mea Dominum: et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo. Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae: ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.

My soul doth magnify the Lord: And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For he hath regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden: for behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

2. Of a Rose, a lovely Rose

3. Quia fecit mihi magna

Robert Heyde, Tenor

Quia fecit mihi magna

qui potens est:

et sanctum nomen eius.

Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus

Dominus Deus Sabaoth.

Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua.

Hosanna in excelsis.

For He that is mighty

hath magnified me:

And holy is his Name.

Holy, Holy, Holy,

Lord God of hosts.

Heaven and earth

Are filled with thy glory.

Hosanna in the highest.

4. Et miscordia

Angie Schermitzler, Soprano (Friday) Carolyn Nyland, Soprano (Sunday)

Et misericordia eius a progenie in progenies, timentibus eum.

And his mercy is on them that fear him throughout all generations.

5. Fecit potentiam

Fecit potentiam in brachio suo:

dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.

Deposuit potentes de sede,

et exaltavit humiles.

He hath shewed strength with his arm:

he hath scattered the proud

in the imagination of their hearts.

He hath put down the mighty from their

seat, and hath exalted

the humble and the meek.

6. Esurientes

Laura Graviss, Soprano (Friday) Kelly Johnson, Soprano (Sunday)

Esurientes implevit bonis:

et divites dimisit inanes.

Suscepit Israel puerum suum,

recordatus misericordiae suae.

Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros,

Abraham et semini eius in saecula.

He hath filled the hungry with good things:

and the rich he hath sent empty away.

He remembering his mercy

hath holpen his servant Israel.

As he promised to our forefathers,

Abraham and his seed for ever.

7. Gloria Patri

Shannon Barrett, Alto

Gloria Patri et Filio

et Spiritui Sancto.

Sancta Maria, succurre miseris,

iuva pusillanimes,

refove flebiles:

ora pro populo,

interveni pro clero,

intercede pro devoto femineo sexu:

sentient omnes tuum iuvamen,

quicumque tuum sanctum

implorant auxilium.

Alleluia.

Sicut erat in principio,

et nunc, et semper,

et in saecula saeculorum.

Amen.

Glory be to the Father,

and to the Son,

and to the Holy Ghost.

Holy Mary, succor those in need,

help the faint-hearted,

support the weak:

pray for the laity,

assist the clergy,

intercede for all devout women:

may all feel the power of your help,

whoever prays for your holy aid.

Alleluia.

As it was in the beginning,

is now, and ever shall be,

world without end.

Amen.

This season of Thanksgiving is a perfect time for me to say my heartfelt thanks to each of you in the Chorale for an incredible

year of music making.

Not only have you had to prepare for 2 very different and equally challenging sets of concerts, but you've also recorded two

wonderful CDs of which you should be so very proud.

You're an amazing group of people with such varied gifts and I am honored to continue to be your director. My hope is that these will be some of the most rewarding musical moments you've ever

experienced. Enjoy every one of them.

Eleanor

Thank you, North Valley Chorale,
