Music Notes:
This weekend at the Saturday 5 pm (Vigil) Mass the Music
is led by the School Choir (Rebecca Monson, director).
Orlando di Lassus (c1532-1594) was a Franco-Flemish composer
of late Renaissance music. Along with Palestrina he is today
considered to be the chief representative of the mature polyphonic
style of the Franco-Flemish School, and he was the most famous
and influential musician in Europe by the end of his life.
Offertory Antiphon (Graduale Romanum Chant Proper): Meditabor
in mandatis tuis, quae dilexi valde; et levabo manus meas ad
mandata tua, quae dilexi (I shall meditate upon your commandments
which I greatly love; I will extend my hands towards your commandments
which I love).
The Communion Antiphon (Graduale Romanum Chant Proper):
Domine Dominus noster, quam admirabile est nomen tuum in
universa terra! (O Lord our governor, how admirable is your
name in all the earth!).
John Stanley (1713-1786), born in London England, wrote much music,
including three sets of Ten Voluntaries which, when published,
made him the most influential composer of the form, and the
format was often imitated by his contemporaries. His Voluntary
Set One Number One (1745) is in four sections and provides tempos
and registrations and indicates that some phrases are to be "eccho"
and therefore both gallery and antiphonal organ stops will be heard
in alternation.
