Orlando Chamber Choir
Oliver John Ruthven, director
Francesca Massey, organ

Tallis: O nata lux
Willcocks: Unto us is born a Son
Tunder: Wachet auf! ruft uns die Stimme
Poston: Sing unto the Lord
Vaughan Williams: The truth from above
Vaughan WIlliams: O little town of Bethlehem
White: Christe qui lux es et dies IV
Gibbons: As on the night
Darke: In the bleak midwinter
Willcocks: While shepherds watched their flocks
Poston: Jesus Christ the Apple Tree
Buxtehude: In dulci jubilo
Willcocks: O come, all ye faithful

In this concert of festive music, famous names are intertwined with less well-known ones.

Elizabeth Poston, a stalwart yet unfamiliar English composer of the twentieth century, takes centre stage, with two settings of texts for Christmas. Poston studied with Ralph Vaughan Williams and had a very successful career as a composer and performer during the male-dominated era of post-war Britain.

Robert White, a prodigious talent who died young, is another unfamiliar name, especially when set against his more famous peer, Thomas Tallis. White’s Christe qui lux es et dies is his fourth setting of this text for Compline, and it must have therefore held a special appeal for him. Tallis and Gibbons, meat and drink for the singers of the Orlando Chamber Choir, provide contrasting settings of words celebrating the coming of Christ.

Franz Tunder was the father-in-law of the famous organist and composer Dietrich Buxtehude, and was a talented composer and musician in his own right. Director Oliver John Ruthven has arranged Tunder's motet Wachet auf! for choir and organ - it is a blueprint for the more extended cantatas written by Johann Sebastian Bach 70 years later and it uses the Lutheran hymn as its basis, much as Robert White uses the cantus firmus plainchant as the basis for Christe qui lux es et dies.

The programme is interspersed with audience carols, and we will serve wine and mince pies during the interval.

Join us this December 13th for what promises to be a Christmas concert like no other. Ancient chants and toe-tapping rhythms collide in this unique event journeying through a millennium of early Latin and Hispanic sacred Christmas music treasures, including the UK premiere of a villancico by Cuban Baroque composer, Esteban Salas. Joined by a stellar line-up of pre-eminent Hispanic soloists, the groundbreaking Medieval specialist Idrîsî Ensemble join forces with the Monteverde Consort to celebrate vibrant, festive songs from Spain and Latin America, interlacing Amerindian and Afro styles with the entrancing, mystical sounds of the Roman world. Inspired by our historic c.1163 venue, the Temple Church, the group will also revive music from the site’s earliest days, including a 12th-century chant associated with the Knights Templar who established this place as their spiritual home.
