arr. Ēriks Ešenvalds Danny Boy (Frederic Edward Weatherly) O Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling from glen to glen and down the mountainside. The summer’s gone, and all the roses falling, It’s you, it’s you must go and you must bide. But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow or all the valley’s hushed and white with snow, Yes I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow, O Danny Boy, O Danny Boy, I love you so.

But when I come, and all the flow’rs are dying If I am dead, as dead I well may be, I’ll come and find the place where you are lying and kneel and say an “Ave” there for me. And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me and all my grave will warmer, sweeter be for you will bend and tell me that you love me, and I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.

Kaitlin Foley, soprano soloist Dan Richardson, bass soloist Charles Villiers Stanford Three Motets Justorum Animae (Wisdom, III.) Justorum animae in manu Dei sunt, et non tanget illos tormentum malitiae. Visi sunt oculis insipientium mori, illi autem sunt in pace.

The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and the torment of malice shall not touch them: in the sight of the unwise they seemed to die, but they are in peace.

Coelos Ascendit Hodie (“Gen Himmel aufgefahren ist”) Coelos ascendit hodie, Jesus Christus Rex gloriae, Alleluia! Sedet ad Patris dexteram, Gubernat coelum et terram, Alleluia!

Laudatur Sancta Trinitas, Deo dicamus gratias, Alleluia! Amen.

Today Jesus Christ, the King of glory, has ascended into the heavens, Alleluia! He sits at the Father’s right hand, ruling heaven and earth, Alleluia! Now are David’s songs fulfilled, now is the Lord with his Lord, Alleluia! He sits upon the royal throne of God, in this his greatest triumph, Alleluia! Let us bless the Lord: let the Holy Trinity be praised, Alleluia! Let us give thanks to the Lord, Alleluia! Amen.
