To the Infant Jesus

Prayer To The Infant Jesus was written in 1968 setting a translation of a Czech text. It is dedicated to Sheila Mossman and the Orpington Junior Singers and is scored for unaccompanied SSAA Upper Voice Choir.Sir Arthur Bliss (1891-1975) was a British composer and conductor. He studied under Wood and Stanford at Cambridge and the Royal College of Music where he met and drew inspiration from Vaughan Williams Holst Howells and Goossens. He was appointed Master of the Queen’s Music in 1953 and wrote music for many state occasions including the Queen's Coronation and the Funeral of Winston Churchill.

The ?VOCES8 singles? series includes songs for which the group is particularly well known in choral arrangements produced specifically for VOCES8. The composer?s poem is based on the early 15th Century Middle English carol ?This Endris Night? that is cast as a discourse between Mary and the infant Jesus where her lament alternates with his responses on what the future holds. In the arrangement the sacred meaning is combined with the secular tradition of Ember Days so that it is not clear whether the poem is religious or secular nor ifthe poet is expressing personal belief or musing on the passing of the year. The composition workedso wonderfully with the themes of the VOCES8 album ?Equinox?.

In a tune and text of rare freshness the infant Jesus is called to rest and the world looks on in awe.

Harp Solo-The solo Harp part for Per Nørgård's Gennem Torne / Through Thorns (2003) Harp Concerto No. 2 - Passage for Harp Solo with Flute Clarinet and String Quartet.Premiered by Tine Rehling (Harp) and the Esbjerg Ensemble conducted by Kaisa Roose at the Concert Hall of the Western Jutland Academy of Music Esbjerg 28th January 2004.Programme Note THROUGH THORNS has a duration of about 20 minutes in one continuous movement thus the subtitle 'passage'. The work is scored for harp solo flute clarinet and string quartet. The title is borrowed from the lines from an old Virgin Mary Hymn: 'Marywanders through thorns' a hymn which ends with the following line: 'then roses grew forth amongst the thorns'. I only came across the poem after finishing the composition the 'passage' of which is a journey of sometimes dramatic events concluding with a 'rose-blooming' as does the hymn. For THROUGH THORNS to borrow its title from a Virgin Mary Hymn has to do with the musical material and current of the piece which brings motives from an earlier choral piece of mine FLOS UT ROSA (Latin for 'a flower like a rose') and the rose in question is of course the one which grew forth when the Virgin Mary gave birth to the Infant Jesus in a hitherto unheard-of fashion a NOVA GENITURA (new birth) which is the title of another work of mine that also derives its material from my original 'rose'-melody from 1975. THROUGH THORNS is dedicated to Tine Rehling and together with her I have tried to expand the sonorities of the harp by exploring existing techniques and their more remote regions in order to gain access to new territory and new soundscaoes as realised by the constantly experimentally-minded and virtuoso player. Per Nørgård 2004.
