Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus Laid down his sweet head. The stars in the bright sky looked down wHere he lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes. I love thee, Lord Jesus! look down from the sky, And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh. Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me I pray. Bless all the dear Children in thy tender care, And take us to heaven to live with thee tHere. *** Soloist: Taja Kolmanič Sound: Grega Žuraj & Damir Ovčar Video production, scenario & directed: Matjaž Feguš Asistent: Tomaž Rihtar Producer: Valerija Dukarić Art. director: Robert Feguš Thanks to Municipality of Podlehnik & St. Trinity Church in Haloze. http://trinityensemble.eu  less

The Song of Ruth, a setting of the most famous passage from the Book of Ruth (Ruth 1:16–17), opens with a Gentle polyphonic section for the chorus.

(“Do not ask me to leave you, or to stop following you; for wHere ever you go, I will go, and wHere you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God my God.”) The soprano joins the choir for the twice-repeated middle section of the piece. The music Here is contrastingly homophonic and intense. (“WHere you die, I will die and be buried.”) The tune and harmonies are borrowed from a passage in my piece Selections from “The Song of Songs” for male voice and band. That piece is dedicated to my wife, Ruth, hence the connection. If that were not enough, our daughter is named Naomi! The Song of Ruth closes with a recapitulation of the music from the opening, but with new words assigned to it, and with the soprano soloist providing a descant for it. (“May the Lord cause ill fate to befall me, and more, if anything but death separates me and you.”) Appropriat...    less

Recorded live on Sunday, May 5, 2013, at All Saints Episcopal Church in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Performed by the Concert Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese. Who is Silvia? what is she, That all our swains commend Her? Holy, fair, and wise is she; The heaven such grace did lend Her, That she might admirèd be. Is she kind as she is fair? For beauty lives with kindness. Love doth to Her eyes repair, To help him of his blindness; And, being helped, inhabits tHere. Then to Silvia let us sing, That Silvia is excelling; She excels each mortal thing Upon the dull earth dwelling; To Her let us garlands bring  less
