PROGRAM
1. Antonio Lotti (1667-1740) Miserere
Translation from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer: Have mercy upon me, O God, after Thy great goodness
2. Hans Leo Hassler (1564-1612) Cantate Domino
Psalm 98 (Greek numbering: Psalm 97) is one of the psalms in the biblical Book of Psalms.
3. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) Ave Verum

4. Anton Bruckner (1824 1896) Ave Maria
is a sacred motet a setting of the Latin prayer Ave Maria. Anton Bruckner composed it in Linz in 1861 and scored the short work in F major for seven unaccompanied voices. The piece, sometimes named an Offertorium, was published in Vienna in 1867.
5. Randall Thompson (1899-1984) Alleluia
Thompson wrote that the Alleluia is a very sad piece. The word "Alleluia" has so many possible interpretations. The music in my particular Alleluia cannot be made to sound joyous. It is a slow, sad piece, and...here it is comparable to the Book of Job, where it is written, "The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away. Blessed be the name of the Lord."
6. Francis Poulenc (1899-1963)O Magnum Mysterium(arr. Kirill Sokolov)
is a responsorial chant from the Matins of Christmas

"Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal, have mercy on us"
9. Mikhail Ippolitov-Ivanov (1859-1935) Bless the Lord, O My Soul
The Antiphons (settings of the Psalms) were originally sung by antiphonal choirs. The first Antiphon is Psalm 102:1-6.
10. Apostol Nikolaev-Strumsky (1886-1971) "The Great Doxology"
A prayer during Matins and Great Compline
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, peace and good will among men"
