The Allegheny Choirs

Works from ShakespeareJames D. Niblock, director

Sacerdotes Domini William Byrd (1543-1623)

The priests of the Lord offer incense and loaves to God, and therefore they shall be holy to their God, and shall not defile His name. Alleluia. 1

At the River Aaron Copland (1900-1990)/arr. White Annie Laurie arr. Alice Parker and Robert Shaw It Was a Lover and His Lass P. D. Q. Bach (1807-1742)?

~Chorus~ It Was a Lover and His Lass Matthew Harris (b. 1956) Hine e Hine arr. David Hamilton

You are weeping, little girl, darling girl. You are weary, little girl, darling girl. Be sad no longer. There is love for you in the heart of the Father, little girl, darling girl. 2

Chelsea Hubert, soprano Estrellita del Sur Felipe Coronel Rueda (b. 1924)/arr. Iturriaga

When far away from you, the heart will want to descend in pain. In his violent groan I will remember his laugh: the vibration that was a song of love, a hymn of peace.

Then no pain will be there and it will all be happiness. No, no, I dont tell you good-bye, Little Star from the South, because I will be soon at your side once again, and be able to smell the keen fragrance again

and bells of great success will ring forever in my heart. 3 Ain-a That Good News! William L. Dawson (1899-1990)

~Chamber Choir~ Nigra Sum Pablo Casals (1876-1973)

I am very dark, but comely, O daughters of Jerusalem. Therefore the King loved me, and brought me into his chamber.

And he said to me: Arise, my love, and come: for now the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. The flowers have appeared in our land, the time of pruning has come. Alleluia! 4

Over Hill, over Dale Amy Beach (1867-1944) All in green went my love riding Ronald Perera (b. 1941)
