Concert andEvensong

Established in 1822, Christ Church Cathedral is the oldest house of

worship in Louisville. The Cathedral has and continues to uphold the highest standard for music and worship. While the great traditions of the church are at risk of being lost in our culture, the Cathedral desires to maintain our heritage of Anglican music and historical liturgies while always looking forward and being relevant in our world today. With this in mind, our worship reflects the contemplative nature of evening worship through Evensong to the joyous celebrations of the nativity and resurrection. If you would like to know more about the Cathedral, please talk with one of the clergy as you leave tonight or visit our website at www.christchurchlouky.org. If you would like to become a supporter of Cathedral Arts, please make your check payable to Christ Church Cathedral with Cathedral Arts in the memo line and place it in the offering plate. Envelopes are available at the entrances if you would prefer to mail your contribution.

Program Notes

Although English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) started studying music at the young age of six and attended Charterhouse School, as well as Trinity College, Cambridge, he did not actually publish his first composition until he reached 30 years of age. He had an excellent education studying with Charles Stanford and Parry in England, Max Bruch in Berlin and Maurice Ravel in Paris. Early in his career Vaughan Williams developed a deep appreciation for folk music from the English countryside. The Pastorale, one of two works written for violin & piano, contains a characteristic suggestion of folk music in the melodies he created for this piece. The Pastorale and the Romance were written in 1914, the same year in which he completed one of his most popular works, The Lark Ascending. However, they were not published until 1923, long after the conclusion of WWI. Russian composer Alexander Scriabin was highly regarded for his contribution to music during his lifetime. He was innovative in his use of tonality and later in his life explored atonality and his own dissonant musical language. His works were influenced by synesthesia, where a certain sound (chord, scale, or note) represents a particular color. Though it is questionable whether Scriabin had the condition, he used the influence of color as well as mysticism in his music in various ways. While he composed several pieces for orchestra, he was primarily a composer of piano music. This trio is an arrangement of his Nocturne, Op. 5, No. 1, originally a piano solo and transcribed by Alexander Krein for violin, cello, and piano.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s String Quartet, Op. 11 was one of the composer’s first major successes. The main theme is based on a folk song that Tchaikovsky heard a gardener sing while visiting his sister in the Ukraine two years earlier. The quartet and its second movement especially, the Andante Cantabile, was repeated across Europe and arranged and rearranged. Tchaikovsky himself arranged a version of the Andante Cantabile as a standalone piece for cello and orchestra; this version for cello and piano was arranged by Leo Schulz. Daniel Gilliam is a composer of art songs, choral, orchestral, and chamber music. He is Program director of WUOL in Louisville and a chorister in the Cathedral Choir. “In November 2009 I was commissioned by the Phoenix Concerts in New York City for a concert of hymn-tune arrangements. For the commission I chose The Old Rugged Cross, a favorite of my grandfather Louis Gilliam, who passed away just a month earlier. This trio is dedicated to his memory.” Read more about Daniel and his music at danielgilliam.com.

O gracious Light, pure brightness of the everliving Father in heav’n,O Jesus Christ, holy and blessed!Now as we come to the setting of the sun, and our eyes behold the vesper light, We sing thy praises O God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.Thou art worthy at all times to be praised by happy voices,O Son of God, O Giver of life, and to be glorified through all the worlds.

The Lessons

And on that day I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. And I will pour out a spirit of compassion and supplication on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that, when they look on the one whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn. On that day the mourning in Jerusalem will be as great as the mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the plain of Megiddo. On that day a fountain shall be opened for the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.

‘Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, against the man who is my associate,’says the Lord of hosts.Strike the shepherd, that the sheep may be scattered; I will turn my hand against the little ones. In the whole land, says the Lord, two-thirds shall be cut off and perish, and one-third shall be left alive. And I will put this third into the fire, refine them as one refines silver, and test them as gold is tested.They will call on my name, and I will answer them.I will say, ‘They are my people’; and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.’

Second Lesson Luke 19:41-48As he came near and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, ‘If you, even you, had only recognized on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. Indeed, the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up ramparts around you and surround you, and hem you in

on every side. They will crush you to the ground, you and your children within you, and they will not leave within you one stone upon another; because you did not recognize the time of your visitation from God. Then he entered the temple and began to drive out those who were selling things there; and he said, ‘It is written,

I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth.I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead.I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

The Prayers

“My house shall be a house of prayer”;but you have made it a den of robbers.’ Every day he was teaching in the temple. The chief priests, the scribes, and

the leaders of the people kept looking for a way to kill him; but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people were spellbound by what they heard.

The Lord’s Prayer • chanted by all

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Suffrages Richard Shepherd

O Lord, show thy mercy upon us: and grant us thy salvation.O Lord, save the State: and mercifully hear us when we call upon thee.Endue thy ministers with righteousness: and make thy chosen people joyful.O Lord, save thy people: and bless thine inheritance.Give peace in our time, O Lord: Because there is none other that fighteth for us, but only thou, O God.O God make clean our hearts within us: and take not thy Holy Spirit from us.

A Prayer of Thanksgiving • said by all

Accept, O Lord, our thanks and praise for all that you have done for us. We thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love.We thank you for the blessing of family and friends, and for the loving care which surrounds us on every side.We thank you for setting us at tasks which demand our best efforts, and for leading us to accomplishments which satisfy and delight us.We thank you also for those disappointments and failures that lead us to acknowledge our dependence on you alone.Above all, we thank you for your Son Jesus Christ; for the truth of his Word and the example of his life; for his steadfast obedience, by which he overcame temptation; for his dying, through which he overcame death; and for his rising to life again, in which we are raised to the life of your kingdom.Grant us the gift of your Spirit, that we may know him and make him known; and through him, at all times and in all places, may give thanks to you in all things. Amen.
