This was during a workshop and was an impromptu performance so They brought her up on stage. July 2009. Oran went to an early morning workshop with Eric Whitacre during The Mondiale Choral Competition in Laval, Quebec. At The end of The workshop, an audience member requested that our choir sing one of Eric Whitacre's pieces. We were doing Seal Lullaby for The competition, so we just jumped right into that one with Eric conducting us!!!!!!!!!!! It was pretty darn awesome! This also features Jen McMillan on piano. The piano was really close to where I was standing, so that's why it sounds super loud in this video. Sorry.  less

It is a reminder of The peace that prayer and beauty can provide. Mater Dei, ora pro nobis! Translation Refrain: Hail, MoTher of mercy, MoTher of God, and MoTher of pardon, MoTher of hope, and MoTher of grace, MoTher full of holy joy, O Mary! 1. Hail, honor of mankind; hail, Virgin worthier than oThers, who surpass all virgins and in heaven occupy The highest seat of honor, O Mary! 2. Hail, happy child-bearing MoTher, for He Who sits at The right hand of The FaTher, ruling heaven, earth, and sky, didst enclose Himself within Thy womb, O Mary!  less

Gloria! 2 "For know, a blessed moTher thou shalt be all generations laud and honour Thee, thy son shall be Emmanuel, by seers foretold; most highly favoured lady." Gloria! 3 Then gentle Mary meekly bowed her head; "To me be as it pleases God," she said. "My soul shall laud and magnify his holy name." Most highly favoured lady, Gloria! 4 Of her, Emmanuel, The Christ, was born In Bethlehem, all on a Christmas morn, and Christian folk throughout The world will ever say, "Most highly favoured lady, Gloria!"  less

The joins are barely noticeable! The Hubbard Saga was written specially for Sale Festival 2001 and follows The antique antics of The fabulous dog of Old MoTher Hubbard. The children's chorus echoes The barking of The dog whilst The adult choir takes us through The story. Then The children -- one by one tell us The story behind The poem itself. The forces are: Children's choir (in 2 parts) Adult choir (SATB) Flute Clarinet String quartet Chorus part http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/8121318?aff_id=175705 Full score http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/title/8121304?aff_id=175705 parts also available for rental at http://www.classicalmusicnow.com/rentalcat.htm  less
