Program Notes
esus Christ the Apple Tree,
composed by Elizabeth Poston in 1967,
opens with what might be best described
as a tonal version of Gregorian Chant. The
apple tree becomes an allegorical symbol for the
presence of Christ, surpassing anything in the
natural realm.
Michael Praetorius published most of his works
between 1616 and 1625 in Hamburg as a fivevolume collected edition. He wrote masses,
magnificats, motets and some organ music.
Psallite (a translation of the Latin is in this
program) is a traditional “macaronic” piece –
that is, it contains two languages, Latin and
English (the original “other” language being
German). It exudes the great joy of the baby in
the manger.
A Babe is Born was composed by William
Mathias (b. 1934). The musical and literary
heritage of Wales has contributed substantially to
Mathias’s development as a composer. His works
include orchestral, choral, chamber, and vocal
music. The present work also uses the
“macaronic” approach (see Psallite, above).
Translations of the Latin used in this piece are
included in the program.
The Magnificat has been attributed both to
Francesco Durante and to his teacher, Giovanni
Pergolesi, both being contemporaries of Johann
Sebastian Bach. But no matter who receives the
credit, the work is a splendid encapsulation of
the Baroque spirit. In less than twenty minutes,
one hears grand choruses, finely crafted solos,
and spirited string writing. It is a goal of this
performance to create an historically accurate
rendition, while at the same time, demonstrating
Our Business Supporters
the work’s wonderful zest and joy. All the string
players are either students or residents of the
Palouse region. You will find translations of the
Latin text (Luke 1:46-55) in this program.
Child in a Manger, Donkey Carol, King Jesus
Hath a Garden, and Jesus Child were
composed by John Rutter (b. 1945). His
compositional career has embraced both large
and small choral works, two children’s operas,
and music for television. He has written for such
groups as the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble and
the King’s Singers. His Requiem (1985) and
Magnificat (1990) have been performed many
times around the world, and numerous
recordings of his music are available.
Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day by John
Gardner (b. 1917) was published in 1966.
Because of changing meters within the work, it
takes on a spirited forward motion and reveals a
delightful choral setting of this familiar
Christmas text.

Birthday Carol by David Willcocks uses
traditional Christmas texts from the second
chapter of Luke’s Gospel. You will recognize
references to the shepherds, the angel hosts and
the babe in swaddling clothes. It is also our final
example of a “macaronic” text— Latin and
English with the familiar, “Gloria in excelsis,
Deo! “(Glory to God in the highest).
We hope your spirits have been lifted this
evening and that you have a safe and memorable
holiday. Thank you for coming.

Verse 1: Audience sings with Choir
Hark! The herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King;
Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled:
Joyful all ye nations rise, Join the triumph of the skies,
With th’angelic host proclaim, Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Refrain: Hark! the herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King.
Verse 2: Audience sings with Choir
Christ, by highest heav’n adored, Christ, the everlasting Lord,
Late in time behold him come Offspring of a virgin’s womb:
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see, Hail th’incarnate Deity!
Pleased as man with man to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel. Refrain
Verse 3: Audience sings with Choir
Hail the heav’n-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings, Ris’n with healing in his wings;
Mild he lays his glory by, Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth. Refrain
II. What Child Is This?
arr. David Willcocks (b. 1919)
Sara Miller, Violin
Verse 1: Audience sings with Choir
What Child is this, who, laid to rest On Mary’s lap is sleeping?
This, this is Chris the King, Whom shepherds worship and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him praise, The Babe, the son of Mary.
Verse 2: Audience Ladies sing, Choir ladies sing descant
Why lies he in such mean estate, Where ox and ass are feeding?
Come have no fear, God’s Son is here, His love all loves exceeding.
Nails, spear, shall pierce him through, The cross be borne for me, for you:
Hail, hail, the Savior comes, The Babe the son of Mary.
