Hodie Christus natus est: Hodie Salvator apparuit: Hodie in terra canunt angeli laetantur archangeli: Hodie exsultant justi dicentes: Gloria in excelsis Deo. Alleluia.

On this day Christ is born: On this day the Saviour has appeared On this day angels sing and the archangels rejoice: On this day the righteous exult, saying: Glory to God in the highest. Alleluia

Antiphons. In this programme we hear three of the motets; each interprets a different aspect of the Christmas story: the mystery (‘O magnum mysterium’); the earthly, as represented by the shepherds (‘Quem vidistis pastores’) and the celestial, represented by the magi following the star (‘Videntes stellam’).

O magnum mysterium O magnum mysterium et admirabile sacramentum ut animalia vederent Dominum natum jacentem in praesepio.

Beata Virgo cujus viscera meruerunt portare Dominum Christum O great mystery and wondrous sacrament that the animals should see the new-born Lord lying in a manger.

Blessed be the Virgin whose womb was worthy to bear Christ the Lord.

Quem vidistis Quem vidistis pastores dicite: annuntiate nobis in terris quis apparuit.

Natum vidimus et choros angelorum collaudantes Dominum.

Dicite quidnam vidistis et annuntiate Christi nativitatem.

Shepherds, whom have you seen? Tell us: make known who has appeared on earth.

We have seen the new-born child, and choirs of angels all praising the Lord.

Tell out all you have seen, and proclaim the birth of Christ.

obtulerunt Domino aurum, thus et myrrham.

Seeing the star the Wise Men rejoiced with great gladness and, going into the house, they offered unto the Lord gold, frankincense and myrrh.

TRADITIONAL 3 Ther is no rose of swych vertu The image of Mary the Virgin as ‘the rose’ is a popular one in medieval literature. During this period the cult of Mary was at its peak and England, along with the rest of Christian Europe, was swept up in a wave of passionate adoration of the Virgin. Ther is no rose of swych vertu is a setting of the 15th century English text transcribed from a medieval manuscript. As with most medieval carols, the form consists of two components, the burden (refrain) and stanza (verse). The burden usually represents a kind of summary of the themes presented in the stanzas and is sung at the opening of the carol, then repeated after

Videntes stellam Videntes stellam Magi gavisi sunt gaudio magno: et intrantes domum

every stanza. This setting is interesting in that while it is written for two voices, the burden lends itself to fauxbourdon, an improvisatory

technique in which the third harmonising voice is added between the two outer voices.

The edition used in this recording is prepared and published by the New York-based medieval specialists Anonymous 4.

John Joubert (b.1927) 4 There is no rose of such virtue Born in Cape Town, Joubert studied at the South African College of Music, the Royal Academy of Music in London and at Durham University. It is interesting that his lyrical setting of this medieval text was written in 1954, the same year as the birth of Joubert’s first child, while he was teaching at Hull University. In 1962, Joubert moved to the University of Birmingham, and in 1979 he was

For in this rose was contained both heaven and earth in a little space, a thing to wonder at.

By that rose we may well see that he is God in persons three, but of equal form.

visiting professor at the University of Otago.

Joubert sets verses 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the text.

Ther is no rose of swych vertu As is the rose that bar Jhesu; Alleluya.

For in this rose conteynd was Heuen and erthe in lytyl space, Res miranda.

The angels sang to the shepherds, ‘Glory to God in the highest’.

Let us go.

Bob Chilcott (b.1955) 7 Nova! nova!

9 The Shepherd’s Carol Bob Chilcott is a full-time composer and conductor, who has worked with TOWER Voices New Zealand and the TOWER New Zealand Youth Choir. For 12 years he was a member of the King’s Singers and during that time composed a number of pieces for the group. Nova! nova! is a setting of a 15th century text written in celebration of the 80th birthday in 1999 of Sir David Willcocks. The refrain ‘Ave fit ex Eva’ (Ave is made from Eva) was a favourite medieval play on words reflecting the two faces of woman: Mary the virgin and Eve the temptress. The Shepherd’s Carol, which

He met a maiden in a place, He kneeled down afore her face, He said: ‘Hail, Mary, full of grace!’

When the maid heard tell of this She was full sore abashed I-wys And wened that she had done amiss.

Then said the angel: ‘Dread not you, You shall conceive in all vertue A child whose name shall be Jesu’ “It is not yet six months agone Since Elizabeth conceived John As it was prophesied before’ Then said the maiden verily: ‘I am your servant right truly.

Franz Xaver GrUber (1787-1863) q0 Stille Nacht! heilige Nacht!

Franz Gruber’s Stille nacht! heilige Nacht! (Silent Night) is probably the most popular of all Christmas carols. It was first performed in

Stille Nacht! heilige Nacht!

Hirten erst kundgemacht durch der Engel Alleluja; tönt es laut bei Ferne und Nah: ‘Jesus der Retter ist da!’

Oberndorf in Bavaria (then Lower Austria) in 1818, with Gruber playing a guitar accompaniment. The original manuscript score has been lost, but has been reconstructed from a later version for voices and ‘quiet organ accompaniment’ thought to be a direct transcription of the original guitar part.

Stille Nacht! heilige Nacht!

Alles schläft; einsam wacht nur das traute heilige Paar.

Holder Knab im lockigten Haar, schlafe in himmlischer Ruh! Stille Nacht! heilige Nacht!

Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht Lieb’ aus deinem göttlichen Mund da uns schlägt die rettende Stund Jesus, in deiner Geburt!

Stille Nacht! heilige Nacht! die der Welt Heil gebracht aus des Himmels goldenen Höhn.

Uns der Gnaden Fülle läßt sehn Jesum in Menschengestalt.

Silent night! Holy night!

All are asleep; the only ones awake are the beloved holy couple.

Dear little boy with curly hair, sleep in heavenly peace!

Silent night! Holy night!

Son of God, oh how love smiles from your divine mouth and strikes for us the redeeming hour, Jesus, of your birth.

Silent night! Holy night! on which salvation was brought to the from the golden heights of heaven.

By thy abundant grace we see God in human form.

Silent night! Holy night!

Shepherds first proclaimed it having heard the angel’s ‘Alleluia’; it resounds both far and near: ‘Jesus, the Saviour, is here!’

Richard Rodney Bennett (b.1936) qs ‘Susanni’ and qj ‘Sweet was the song’: Nos. 5 and 4 from Five Carols The title for ‘Susanni’ comes from an old German word for lullaby: from sausen, meaning to hum or sing in a low voice and ninne, an obsolete word for baby. The carol has a jazzy mixed-metre swing perhaps influenced by the medieval text, which, in its original setting, would not have been subject to the ‘tyranny of the barline’.

‘Sweet was the Song’ is a setting of a lullaby taken from William Ballet’s lute book of around 1600. Bennett’s Five Carols were written for the choir of St Matthew’s Church, Northhampton (the church in which,

And he sprang out of Jesse’s thorn, Alleluya, alleluya.

Sweet was the song Sweet was the song the Virgin sang, When she to Bethlem Judah came And was delivered of a son, That blessed Jesus hath to name:

“Sweet babe,” sang she, “my son, And eke a saviour born, Who hast vouchsafed from on high To visit us that were forlorn”: Lalulla, lalullaby, Lulla lullaby, “Sweet babe,” sang she And rocked him gently on her knee.

Jonathan Dove (b.1959) qd The Three Kings The most recent of the carols in this programme, The Three Kings by young British composer Jonathan Dove was commissioned

by King’s College, Cambridge for the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols on Christmas Eve, 2000. This beautifully crafted carol, set to a poem by Dorothy L. Sayers, describes the individual characters of the three wise men and the gifts they brought for the baby. A feature of it is its steady rocking ‘balow la lay’ refrain.

Herbert Howells (1892-1983) qf Here is the little door Herbert Howells wrote Here is the little door in 1918, when he was in his mid-20s. Described as a carol-anthem, it sets words by Frances Chesterton on the giving of gifts to the infant Jesus.

Here is the little door, lift up the latch, o lift!

We need not wander more but enter with our gift, Our gift of finest gold, That was never bought or sold; Myrrh to be strewn about His bed; Incense in clouds above His head; All for the child that stirs not in His sleep, But holy slumber holds with ass and sheep.

Bend low about His bed for each He has a gift; See how His eyes awake, lift up your hands, o lift!

For gold, he gives a keen-edged sword (Defend with it Thy little Lord!)

For incense, smoke of battle red Myrrh for the honoured happy dead Gifts for His children, terrible and sweet Touched by such tiny hands and Oh such tiny feet.

part of life went on to the sound of music.

Rich merchants hired bands to accompany them on strolls; peddlers enhanced their sales pitches with song; and a municipal chorus of singers, called waits, were licensed to sing out the hours of day or night, to greet visiting dignitaries, and to enliven weddings of the rich and near-rich. Waits were especially busy at Christmastime, serenading on frosty nights, telling the Nativity story in song, and generally making the festivities of that favourite holiday even merrier. In return, they might receive coins, or a bit of fig pudding, spiced ale or roasted pig. Many of the oldest carols are waits’ carols, including We Wish You a Merry Christmas.

We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas We wish you a merry Christmas And a happy New Year.

Gavin Chilcott

(b.1950)

Gavin Chilcott was born in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1950. He is one of New Zealand’s most versatile contemporary artists, working not only with traditional media but creating three-dimensional constructions and assembled art works such as art furniture, rugs, vessels, relief works and installations. His work is perhaps epitomised by a complete dining room, which included his classic painted pots that he installed at the Auckland City Art Gallery. His work displays his interest in graphics and calligraphy, the ‘idea of drawing with the brush, creating forms’. Chilcott has exhibited in Australia and throughout New Zealand, and is represented in museum collections in both countries. He lives and works in Wellington.
