VI) of the Requiem that I composed in 2007, as performed by the Orlando Chamber Singers under the direction of Gregory Ruffer on May 18, 2008. I had wanted to write a requiem for quite some Time, having been swept away by the Requiems of Brahms, Faure, Rutter, Durufle, Mozart and Daley.
"Life's work well done,
Life's race well run,
Life's crown well won,
Now comes rest."
--- Edward Hazen Parker
If [they] have given you delight
By aught that [they] have done,
Let [them] lie quiet in that night
Which shall be yours anon:
And for that little, little span
The dead are borne in mind
Seek not to question other than
The [deeds] [they] leave behind.
--- Kipling

Zither Carol transposed for men's voices
This is a transposed version of Malcolm Sargent's "Zither Carol".

It is based on a Czech Furiant (a fast dance with metre shifting between duple and triple Time) called "Sedlák, sedlák", which was also sung as a light-hearted and frolicsome song gently poking fun at a corpulent farmer.
The words of the carol are by Malcolm Sargent himself.
Girls and boys, leave your toys. make no noise,
Kneel at His crib and worship Him.
At Thy shrine, Child divine, we are Thine,
Our Saviour's here.
"Hallelujah!" the church bells ring,
"Hallelujah!" the angels sing,
"Hallelujah!" from ev'rything.
All must draw near.

Time drifts on between each breath for you and I
When your destination arrives, have your dreams gone to rest?
Body and mind worn out between each sunset and sunrise
When calamity strikes, would then your heart return home?
As one act after another plays out, unfamiliarity of nonexistence
Seeking and searching, how to link pearls on a broken string?
How to sing the missing notes?
If tomorrow were your next life
How would you spend your day today?
If tomorrow were your next life
How would you spend your day today?
Use warmth to safeguard life from within
Let each wave leave its trace behind
Use mindfulness to protect wellbeing
Let the wheel of life be given light

Today it comprises 23 selected singers, Cantilena meaning "lightweight song", deriving from the Latin word for "song" or "melody". Whenever possible, during concerts the members of the choir wear a pearl necklace to represent the significance of the activities pursued: each member of the choir is represented by one of the pearls, with the strand linking them all being the music - the main purpose of so much hard work to achieve artistic quality. As well as being an extremely feminine accessory, it also illustrates the quality, refinement, finish and musical beauty that the Academia Concerto pursues. The formation of groups of like voices in Brazil is not very common and, therefore, requires constant research to seek out specialised repertoire, both in Brazil and abroad, making appropriate arrangements or adaptations of pieces for ... less

OAK AND MAYFLY

Towered past in a mighty crown
Flying, gliding, dancing, living
Thousands of moments in blissful play
Flying, gliding, dancing, living

Rustling leaves:
Good night, good night
Poor little mayfly, too short a ... less

Lyric sense: Good night, another day is ending, asking for it's sense, haste hinders the view on the world of god. But at night, Time has no power, so rest in the palm of gods hand. God night.
God night, Let go all your doing, during sleep everything may rest. So devote yourself and OUR Time will stand still. But Time of god is named eternity, so lay down in the palm of gods hand, god night.
