Music Notes:


The Communion Antiphon (Graduale Romanum Chant Proper):
Dominus firmamentum emum, et refugium meum, et liberator meus; Deus meus adiutor meus (The Lord is my support, my refuge and my deliver; God is my only help).


Christopher Tambling (1964-) attended (1976-82) Christ's Hospital School (founded 1552 by King Edward VI) and was organ scholar at St Peter's College Oxford. In Scotland (1991-), he was conductor of Perth Symphony Orchestra, Perth city organist,
choirmaster and music director at Trinity College Glenalmond. In England (1995-), he is Director of Music at Downside School and Master of the Schola Cantorum of Downside Abbey. Composed: musicals, pieces for organ, service music, several books of
arrangements and anthems for choirs, music theory resource book.


His "Trio" has three concurrent lines of music, one for the feet and one for each hand (played on separate manuals with contrasting registrations) while his "Trumpet Tune (1981)" has several alternating solo and interlude sections (it is interesting to note that it was written in September of his senior year of high school!).
