Anthems<\/strong><\/p>\n

Knut Nystedt (1915-2014)<\/span><\/p>\n

My peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.<\/em><\/p>\n

The offertory anthem, \u201cPeace I leave with you,\u201d is a setting of the gospel text written by the Norwegian composer Knut Nystedt (1915-2014). Nystedt was the organist at Torshov Church in Oslo and most of his major works are sacred music for voices or choir. Renaissance polyphony and plainchant were major influences on his style. This short piece opens with a meditative and quiet series of chords in conventional harmony, conveying the peace that Christ gives us. But it moves into challenging 20th-century harmony on the text \u201cgive I unto you\u201d where the tonal center becomes uncertain. No sooner does the tonal center settle down than it switches to a minor key at \u201cneither let it be afraid\u201d only resolving to a major key only at the final chord of the piece. The effect is to depict movement from an idyllic beginning through discord and sorrow back to a place of rest.<\/div>\n

Thomas Tallis (1510-1585)<\/span><\/p>\n

O sacrum convivium, in quo Christus sumitur; recolitur memoria passionis ejus; mens impletur gratia; et futurae gloriae nobis pignus datur. O sacred banquet, wherein Christ is received; the memorial of his passion is renewed; the soul is filled with grace; and a pledge of future glory is given to us.<\/em><\/p>\n

In 1575, Tallis and Byrd were granted a monopoly on printing music by Elizabeth I. The first publication,\u00a0Cantiones Sacrae<\/i>, was a collection of Latin hymns and motets in that same year, including today\u2019s communion anthem\u00a0O sacrum convivium<\/i>. It is likely that some of these anthems date from Tallis\u2019 earlier career as the organist at the Abbey of Waltham Holy Cross in Essex. When the monastery was dissolved by the crown in 1540, Tallis reworked some of his anthems in English. This anthem is also found in early sources with the text \u201cI call and cry to thee.\u201d The Latin text is the Magnificat antiphon for the feast of Corpus Christi, meaning that this anthem had no official liturgical use in England at the time of its publication. The musical style is typical of early 16th<\/sup>\u00a0century English music\u2014florid, with thick textures, points of imitation, modal harmonies with striking cross-relations (for example, at \u201cin quo Christus sumitur\u201d).<\/p>\n

Hymns<\/strong><\/p>\n

Love’s redeeming work is done\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/a> (SAVANNAH)\u00a0by Charles Wesley is a cento composed of stanxzs ii.-v.,x., of his hymn \u201cChrist the Lord is risen to-day.\u201d Books originating in the Church of England tradition use the tune SAVANNAH, first found in England in John Wesley\u2019s\u00a0A Collection of Tunes, Set to\u00a0Music,<\/em>\u00a0as they are commonly sung at the Foundery<\/em>\u00a0(1742), with the name HERNHUTH, which indicates its origins in 18th-century Moravian books. The name SAVANNAH comes from the Moravian settlement at Savannah, Georgia. Wesley accompanied the Moravians on their voyage from England to Savannah and was deeply impressed by their calm and faith during a storm that panicked the sailors.<\/p>\n

How blest are they that love the Lord<\/strong><\/em> (TALLIS’ ORDINAL)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alleluia! sing to Jesus\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>was<\/em>\u00a0written by William Chatterton Dix (1837\u20141898). Revelation 5:9 describes this eschatological scene of joy and glory: \u201cAnd they sang a new song, saying: \u2018You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because You were slain, and with Your blood You purchased for God members of every tribe and language and nation.\u2019\u201d\u00a0 Dix invites us to sing that new song of praise to our ascended Savior. This hymn is a declaration of Jesus\u2019 victory over death and His continued presence among His people. By complex and interlocking allusions to Scripture, it presents a very high view of the Eucharist presence: Jesus is both \u201cPriest and Victim\u201d in this feast. Jesus, having triumphed over sin and death, \u201crobed in flesh\u201d has ascended above all the heavens, entering \u201cwithin the veil\u201d to the very throne of God. Dix sees in the Eucharist the fulfillment of Jesus\u2019 promise to be with us evermore.<\/p>\n
