2 CANTORUM CHOIR Patron Ralph Allwood MBE Sponsor Aspen Worldwide C antorum Choir is a dedicated and talented choir of approximately forty voices, based in Cookham, Berkshire.

In 2008, she won the A.E.S.S. Patricia Routledge National Prize for English Song and has subsequently built a busy and successful career as a professional soprano, vocal coach, and choral trainer. She has for some years been working with Berkshire Maestros (The Young Musicians Trust) and is currently director of Berkshire Young Voices, the county training choir. She is also a regular tutor for the National Youth Choirs of Wales. Adrienne Black Piano Adrienne studied at the Royal College of Music, where she won the inter-collegiate Raymond Russell and Geoffrey Tankard harpsichord prizes. She has performed as a piano/harpsichord soloist, accompanist/continuo player and chamber musician throughout the UK and in Europe, in venues ranging from palaces and prisons (with Sir Yehudi Menuhin s Live Music Now) to the South Bank. She teaches piano and accompanies for Bradfield College, is the Artistic Director for Concerts in Caversham a successful and fully professional Chamber Concert series and is also much in demand playing for dance in the South of England. Samples from the original texts for Three Shakespeare Songs by Vaughan Williams Re-enter ARIEL, invisible, playing and singing Full fathom five thy father lies; Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange. Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell Burthen: Ding-dong Hark! now I hear them: Ding-dong, bell. PROSPERO You do look, my son, in a mov d sort, As if you were dismay d: be cheerful, sir. Our revels now are ended. These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits and Are melted into air, into thin air: And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, The cloud-capp d towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff As dreams are made on, and our little life Is rounded with a sleep. Enter from opposite sides, A FAIRY and PUCK PUCK How now, spirit! Whither wander you? FAIRY Over hill, over dale, Thorough bush, thorough brier, Over park, over pale, Thorough flood, thorough fire, I do wander every where, Swifter than the moone's sphere; And I serve the fairy queen, To dew her orbs upon the green: The cowslips tall her pensioners be; In their gold coats spots you see; Those be rubies, fairy favours, In those freckles live their savours; I must go seek some dewdrops here And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. Farewell, thou lob of spirits; I'll be gone: Our queen and all our elves come here anon. 3

6 illiam Shakespeare died four hundred years ago this year at the age of fiftytwo. Musicians ever since have felt moved to respond to the extraordinary W imaginative power of his poetry. The composers featured in tonight s programme were all born in the twentieth century. It would be true to say, however, that in order to achieve these settings, each has lent a very attentive ear to the music of Shakespeare s own era. Sir John Tavener ( ) was even directly descended from the early Tudor composer John Taverner, and in his Song for Athene (now widely known following its use at the funeral of Princess Diana) we clearly hear the influence of Early English sacred music alongside the sound-world of the Russian Orthodox Church. Elizabethan echoes are equally prominent in Her Sacred Spirit Soars by the much admired American choral composer Eric Whitacre. Here, in a commission for the Heartland Shakespeare Festival at the University of Wisconsin, Whitacre conjures up the glorious cathedral sound of Tallis and Byrd, while the text (a sonnet by his friend Tony Silvestri) both encapsulates and celebrates Thomas Morley s famous tribute book of madrigals for Elizabeth I (published in 1601 as The Triumphs of Oriana). Madrigals are, of course, the secular and more intimate wing of the Elizabethan style, and it is with John Rutter s jazz madrigals that we open our concert tonight. The collection was written for the seventy-fifth birthday of the great jazz pianist George Shearing whose own madrigals we perform in the programme s second half. Both sets are firm favourites with choirs and audiences all over the world. Less well-known are E J Moeran s Songs of Springtime. These appear deceptively simple at first glance, but their surface hides a fascinating chromaticism and rhythmic complexity, which creates real freshness in performance. We are very pleased to add Moeran s work to our repertoire; we believe he should be more widely performed. The Fool in Twelfth Night sings two of the Finzi songs. Come away, come away, Death attempts to comfort poor lovelorn Count Orsino, while O Mistress Mine is offered to amuse the drunken knights Toby Belch and Andrew Aguecheek. Who is Silvia?, from Two Gentlemen of Verona, is a delightfully lively take on the little lyric that Schubert first set for piano and voice. Finzi brings out all the joy in the poem, and uses its final line To her, let us garlands bring as the overall title of his cycle. (We should note here, that yet another celebration of the beautiful Silvia occurs after the interval!) Of all the evening s composers, though, it is perhaps Vaughan Williams who most poignantly captures Shakespeare s spirit landscape: that other world he seems to perceive beyond ordinary beauty and everyday life. In this sense, it could be said that the poet already had one foot in music s territory, requiring composers simply to remain open to the verse. In the Three Shakespeare Songs, Vaughan Williams achieves this quite breathtakingly. The first re-imagines the sprite Ariel s watery bell song of transformation Full Fathom Five thy Father lies from The Tempest. Then follows the great speech on theatrical illusion and life s insubstantiality by Prospero, his master: The cloud-capped Towers. The third song takes lines spoken by a fairy to the mischievous spirit, Puck (who stands in the same servant/master relation to Oberon), from A Midsummer Night s Dream. Her words become musical magic. Returning to the second half of the evening, we have a firm favourite in George Shearing s Songs and Sonnets. Shearing was born in Battersea in Blind from birth, he became a phenomenally accomplished jazz pianist, achieving world-wide fame after his emigration in 1947 to America, where he performed and recorded for the rest of his life. Despite taking US citizenship, Shearing maintained affectionate links with Britain, returning often and eventually finding himself knighted by the Queen in Tonight s pieces are a product of his later-life interest in choral sound and a more classical direction. Their first performance was in 1999 with the composer at the piano and John Rutter as guest conductor. Our final item tonight is, of course, the wonderful medley of songs from Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim s West Side Story. As everyone knows, the story is of Romeo and Juliet, brought into a mid-twentieth century jazz setting of gang conflict in New York s West Side district. What could be a better finish?! 6
7 C SPONSORSHIP antorum Choir has been delighted to gain a sponsorship arrangement with Aspen Worldwide This sponsorship will enable the choir to take on yet more demanding pieces of work and also to move forward in a variety of other ways. C CHARITIES antorum was extremely pleased to have been able to donate a total of 1,000 to our two chosen charities as a result of this year s Christmas Concert. T Our two supported charities this year: he Sepsis Trust was proposed by Pippa Wallace in memory of her mother, Marianne Stork, who was a founder member of Cantorum Choir. The illness known as the silent killer affects 150,000 people every year in Britain and kills 44,000 considerably more than breast and bowel cancer combined. In fact, Sepsis kills approximately 30% of those taken into hospital for intensive care. But, despite the fatal consequences, it often goes undetected until it is far too late for treatment to be effective. sepsistrust.org T he Navakiran Orphanage, Nepal was proposed by Bridget Bentley, whose friends in Marlow Rotary Club are collecting on behalf of the children. Contributions from Cantorum s Christmas Concert collection were sent early and are already making a difference to the children s welfare. navakiranorphanage.org Help Cantorum Choir just by shopping online. Give as you Live is an award-winning fundraising platform for charities.
