Lyrics by William Shakespeare (1564/1616) from "The Tempest"
All parts are performed by Matthew Curtis
- "Before you can say, "Come and go",
And breathe twice, and cry, "So,so"
Each one, tripping on his toe,
Will be here with mop and (mow)
(Do you love me, master?no?)"
"Where the bee sucks there (suck) I:
In a cow-slips (bell) I lie;
There I couch when owls do cry.
On a bat's back (I do) fly
After (summer) merrily,
Merrily, merrily shall I live now
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough" less

Scott Villard--O nata lux for SATB (2014)--Sung by Matthew Curtis of ChoralTracks
O nata lux de lumine,
Jesu redemptor saeculi,
Dignare clemens supplicum

Dignare clemens supplicum

Qui carne quondam contegi
Dignatus es pro perditis,
Nos membra confer effici

(O Light born of Light,
Jesus, redeemer of the world,
with loving-kindness deign to receive
suppliant praise and prayer.
Thou who once deigned to be clothed in flesh
for the sake of the lost,
grant us to be members
of thy blessed body.)

by David W Solomons www.dwsolo.com
All parts performed by Matthew Curtis - www.ChoralTracks.com
The title of this work (Canticula Ursae Minoris/Songs of the Little Bear) comes from the origin of the melodies:
Many years ago I wrote an "Oratorio" based on Winnie the Pooh and gave each character little melodic leitmotifs,
sung as "Sing ho for the life of a bear" and "What I say said Eeyore is that it's unsettling"
and I have used them for various sections of these Canticles, with Eeyore's little song
curiously dominating the Lesser Doxology - Glory be to the Father and to the Son...
The work, called Poohratorio of course, is due to be published once AA Milne goes into public domain (2031).

I would like to acknowledge the a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for their musical inspiration these past 26 years.
And with deepest appreciation to my brother Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for their invaluable support throughout my composing journey. less
