Texts & Translations
Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient time / Walk upon England’s mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God / On England’s pleasant pastures seen?
And did the countenance divine / Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here / Among these dark satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold! / Bring me my arrows of desire!
Bring me my spear! O clouds unfold! / Bring me my chariot of fire!
I will not cease from mental fight, / Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand,
Till we have built Jerusalem / In England’s green and pleasant land.
Skye Boat Song (Celtic Folk Song)
Chorus: Speed bonnie boat like a bird on a wing,
Onward, the sailors cry;
Carry the lad that’s born to be king,
Over the sea to Skye.
1. Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar, / Thunderclaps rend the air,
Baffled our foes stand by the shore, / Follow they will not dare.
(Chorus)
2. Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep, / Ocean’s a royal bed.
Rock’d in the deep, Flora will keep / Watch o’er your weary head.
(Chorus)
3. Many’s the lad fought on that day, / Well the claymore could wield:
When the night came, silently lay / Dead on the Culloden field.
(Chorus)
4. Burned are our homes, exile and death / Scatter the loyal men;
Yet ere the sword cool in the sheath, / Charlie will come again, come again.
(Chorus)
6
Love Divine
1. Love divine, all loves excelling, / Joy of heaven, to earth come down;
Fix in us thy humble dwelling; / All thy faithful mercies crown!
Jesus thou art all compassion, / Pure, unbounded love thou art;
Visit us with thy salvation; / Enter every trembling heart.
2. Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit / Into every troubled breast!
Let us all in thee inherit; / Let us find that second rest.
Take away our bent to sinning; / Alpha and Omega be;
End of faith, as its beginning, / Set our hearts at liberty.
3. Come, Almighty to deliver, / Let us all thy life receive;
Suddenly return and never, / Nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing, / Serve thee as thy hosts above,
Pray and praise thee without ceasing, / Glory in thy perfect love.
4. Finish, then, thy new creation; / Pure and spotless let us be.
Let us see thy great salvation / Perfectly restored in thee;
Changed from glory into glory, / ’Til in heaven we take our place,
’Til we cast our crowns before thee, / Lost in wonder, love, and praise.
Beati quorum via
Beati quorum via integra est
Blessed are those who go the way of integrity
Qui ambulant in lege Domini
Who walk the path of God’s law
If Ye Love Me
If ye love me, keep my commandments,
And I will pray the Father,
And he shall give you another comforter,
That he may bide with you forever,
E’en the spirit of truth.
I was glad when they said unto me
I was glad, glad when they said unto me,
We will go, we will go into the house of the Lord.
Our feet shall stand in thy gates,
O Jerusalem, our feet shall stand in thy gates.
7
Jerusalem is builded as a city, / That is at unity in itself.
O pray for the peace of Jerusalem, / They shall prosper that love thee.
Peace be within thy walls, / and plenteousness within thy palaces.
Five Mystical Songs
1. Easter
Rise heart; thy Lord is risen. / Sing his praise without delays,
Who takes thee by the hand, that thou likewise / With him may’st rise;
That, as his death calcined thee to dust,
His life may make thee gold, and much more, Just.
Awake, my lute, and struggle for thy part / With all thy art.
The cross taught all wood to resound his name / Who bore the same.
His stretched sinews taught all strings, what key
Is best to celebrate this most high day.
Consort both heart and lute, and twist a song / Pleasant and long:
Or since all music is but three parts vied, / And multiplied;
O let thy blessed Spirit bear a part,
And make up our defects with his sweet art.
2. I got me flowers
I got me flowers to strew thy way; / I got me boughs off many a tree:
But thou wast up by break of day, / And brought’st thy sweets along with thee.
The Sun arising in the East, / Though he give light, and the East perfume;
If they should offer to contest / With thy arising, they presume.
Can there be any day but this, / Though many suns to shine endeavour?
We count three hundred, but we miss: / There is but one, and that one ever.
3. Love bade me welcome
Love bade me welcome: yet my soul drew back, / Guilty of dust and sin.
But quick-eyed Love, observing me grow slack / From my first entrance in,
Drew nearer to me, sweetly questioning, / If I lack’d anything.
8
“A guest,” I answer’d, “worthy to be here:”
Love said, “You shall be he.”
“I the unkind, ungrateful? Ah, my dear,
I cannot look on thee.”
Love took my hand, and smiling did reply,
“Who made the eyes but I?”
“Truth, Lord, but I have marr’d them: let my shame
Go where it doth deserve.”
“And know you not,” says Love, “who bore the blame?”
“My dear, then I will serve.”
“You must sit down,” says Love, “and taste my meat:”
So I did sit and eat.
4. The Call (chorus tacet)
Come, my Way, my Truth, my Life:
Such a Way, as gives us breath:
Such a Truth, as ends all strife:
Such a Life, as killeth death.
Come, My Light, my Feast, my Strength:
Such a Light, as shows a feast:
Such a Feast, as mends in length:
Such a Strength, as makes his guest.
Come, my Joy, my Love, my Heart:
Such a Joy, as none can move:
Such a Love, as none can part:
Such a Heart, as joys in love.
5. Antiphon
Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!
The heavens are not too high, / His praise may thither fly:
The earth is not too low, / His praises there may grow.
9
Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!
The church with Psalms must shout. / No door can keep them out:
But above all, the heart / Must bear the longest part.
Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!
Danny Boy
Ave, Ave martyr.
Pace adio fame.
Dorme fabio martyr.
Dorme martyr.
Dorme ritorno.
Danny Boy, Danny Boy / You must go and I must bide.
Sleep in peace until you come. / And I shall sleep, And I shall sleep,
Until you come to me, Danny Boy.
The pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountainside.
The summer’s gone, Danny Boy, / And all the summer’s gone.
But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow,
O Come when the valley’s hushed with snow, / And I shall sleep,
Until you come to me, Danny Boy.
It’s I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow.
When you come, O Danny Boy.
Kneel you softly on my grave,
Danny Boy, and tell me you love me.
And I shall sleep, / Until you come to me.
The Cloths of Heaven from A Celtic Tryptich
Had I the heav’n’s embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
10
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
Two Folk-Songs for Male Voices (from the choral cycle The Sprig of Thyme)
1. Down by the sally gardens
Down by the sally gardens / My love and I did meet.
She passed the sally gardens / With little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, / As the leaves grow on the tree.
But I being young and foolish, / With her did not agree.
In a field by the river / My love and I did stand.
And on my leaning shoulder / She placed her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, / As grass grows on the weirs.
But I was young and foolish, / And now am full of tears.
2. The Miller of Dee
There was a jolly miller once, / Lived on the River Dee.
He danced and sang from morn till night,
No lark more blithe than he.
And this the burden of his song / Forever used to be:
‘I care for nobody, no, not I, / If nobody cares for me.
I love my mill, she is to me / Both parent, child, and wife.
I would not change my station for / Another one in life.
Then push, push, push the bowl, my boys, / And pass it round to me;
The longer we sit here and drink, / The merrier we shall be.’
Then like the miller bold and free / Let us rejoice and sing.
The days of youth were made for glee, / And time is on the wing.
11
This song shall pass / Around this jovial ring:
Let heart and voice and all agree / To sing ‘Long live the King!’
The Drinking Song
Back and side go bare, go bare, / Both foot and hand go cold;
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, / Whether it be new or old.
Holly good ale and old.
I cannot eat but little meat, / My stomach is not good.
But sure I think that I can drink / With him that wears a hood.
Though I go bare, take ye no care / I am nothing a cold;
I stuff my skin so full within / Of jolly good ale and old.
Jolly good ale and old.
I love no roast but a nut-brown toast, / And a crab laid in the fire,
A little bread shall do me stead, / Much bread I not desire.
No frost nor snow, no wind, I trow, / Can hurt me if I would,
I am so wrapt, and throughly lapt / Of jolly good ale and old.
Jolly good ale and old.
Back and side go bare, go bare, / Both foot and hand go cold;
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, / Whether it be new or old.
Holly good ale and old.
12
And all poor souls that have scoured black bowls, / Or have them lustily trowled,
God save the lives of them and their wives / Whether they be young or old,
Jolly good ale and old.
Back and side go bare, go bare, / Both foot and hand go cold;
But, belly, God send thee good ale enough, / Whether it be new or old.
Holly good ale and old.
MLK
Sleep, sleep tonight,
And may your dreams be realized.
If the thundercloud passes rain
So let it rain, rain down on him.
Mm, so let it be.
Mm, so let it be.
Mairi’s Wedding
Chorus: Step we lively, on we go / Heel for heel and toe for toe;
Arm in arm and on we go, / All for Mairi’s wedding.
1. Over hill-ways, up and down, / Through the forest, green and brown;
Past the fences, through the town, / All for sake of Mairi.
(Chorus)
And Tib my wife, that as her life / Loveth well good ale to seek,
Full oft drinks she, till ye may see / The tears run down her cheek.
2. Plenty land on which to grow, / Gardens planted in a row;
Lambs to raise and seeds to sow. / That’s the toast for Mairi.
(Chorus)
Then doth she trowl to me the bowl, / Ev’n as a malt-worm should;
And saith ‘sweetheart, I’ve take my part / Of this jolly good ale and old.’
Jolly good ale and old.
3. Eyes as bright as diamonds are, / Brighter far than any star;
Fairest of them all, by far, / Is my darling Mairi.
(Chorus)
Now let them drink, till they nod and wink, / Even as good fellows should do;
They shall not miss to have the bliss / Good ale doth bring men to.
4. Over hill-ways, up and down, / Through the forest, green and brown;
Past the fences, through the town, / All for sake of Mairi. Hi!

Notes
by Howard Burkett © 2011
In 1916, Robert Bridges, then Poet Laureate of Great Britain, sought
a hymn text to “brace the spirit of the nation” during World War I.
He lit upon “And did those feet in ancient time” by the poet/prophet
William Blake (1757-1827). The text contrasts legends about the child
Jesus of Nazareth having visited ancient Britain with the squalor of
the early Industrial Revolution, before pivoting to a ringing challenge
to social action. Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, a close friend of
Bridges, was asked to provide a tune; he was no doubt inspired by the
poem’s imagery despite personal misgivings about the jingoistic tone of
the patriotic rally where it was to receive its premiere. It was instantly
popular and remains so today, serving as an unofficial English national
anthem under its alternate title “Jerusalem.”
Based on a Celtic folk song, “Skye Boat Song,” romanticizes the escape
of Bonnie Prince Charlie (Charles Edward Stuart, the Young Pretender)
to the Isle of Skye after his crushing defeat at Culloden (1745).
“Love divine, all loves excelling” by the prolific Rev. Charles Wesley
was explicitly modeled on John Dryden’s “Fairest isle” from King Arthur
(music by Henry Purcell). In Britain, the most popular tune for this
text is Blaenwern, by the Welsh schoolteacher and composer William
Penfro Rowlands (1860-1937), named after a farm in the composer’s
native Pembrokeshire. The last-verse descant is by James O’Donnell,
Organist of Westminster Abbey, and was written especially for the
wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Sir Charles Villiers Stanford composed his Three Latin Motets, Op 38,
of which “Beati quorum via” is the last and best-known, during his
tenure as Organist of Trinity College, Cambridge, though they weren’t
published until some time later. The motets were not originally meant
for liturgical use, but as choral entertainment during events or meals in
the Great Hall of the College.
No one knows for certain who compiled the “Wanley Partbooks,”
but they are the earliest, and in many cases only, known source for
14
some 90 anthems, canticles, and ritual music with English text by
musicians of Henry VIII’s and Edward VI’s Chapel Royal. Many of
these works have never (save for the brief, dark interregnum of the
Puritan Commonwealth and Protectorate) been out of the repertoire of
English cathedral choirs. “If ye love me” by Thomas Tallis is first found
in this collection, and is one of the best loved short English anthems,
remaining a virtual template for the form.
“I was glad,” on selected verses from Psalm 122, is one of the fixed
texts of the English Coronation Service, with famous settings by Henry
Purcell and William Boyce, among others. Sir Hubert Parry composed
his setting in 1902 for the coronation of Edward VII and revised it
in 1911 for the coronation of George V, bringing it substantially into
its present form. In the presence of the sovereign (and therefore not
tonight), there is an additional section of acclamations to be halfshouted, half-sung.
In 1911, the 188th meeting of the venerable Three Choirs Festival heard
the premiere of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Five Mystical Songs, set to
poems drawn from the legendary The Temple: Sacred Poems and Private
Ejaculations by Caroline priest-poet George Herbert (1593-1633).
The Musical Times’ review of the premiere said, “[The words] breathe
consolation, and at times joyfulness. The music is a combination of old
and new idioms, some modal tonality imparting a certain quaintness
and naïve simplicity that had a distinct charm.” The composer himself
later adapted the work for male-voice choir.
Frederic Edward Weatherly (1848-1929) led an almost double life as a
practicing barrister and a parlor-song lyricist. He wrote the sentimental
ballad “Danny Boy” in 1910, but had little success with the song until
he later adapted its lyrics to the Irish tune “Londonderry Air.” The
respected choral clinician and composer Z. Randall Stroope was deeply
affected by the original lyric and has here provided his own setting.
Oregon-based composer/publisher Ron Jeffers set “The Cloths of
Heaven” to a poem from William Butler Yeats’ The Wind among the
Reeds. It opens A Celtic Triptych, which Jeffers composed in 1993 for
the University of Michigan Glee Club.
15
John Milford Rutter is one of the most fluent composer/arrangers
working in any choral idiom today. “Down by the sally gardens” is W.
B. Yeats’ distillation of an Irish ballad fragment. (“Sally gardens” means
a willow grove.) “The Miller of Dee” first appeared in Irishman Isaac
Bickerstaffe’s 1762 play Love in a Village. The melody is a variant of
the Welsh harp tune “Llydaw.” These two settings form part of Rutter’s
choral cycle The Sprig of Thyme.
The closest Ralph Vaughan Williams came to theatrical success was his
1929 Opera Sir John in Love, to a pastiche libretto by the composer
based on Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor, borrowings from
other Elizabethan and Jacobean poets and playwrights, and folksong.
Vaughan Williams quickly adapted several parts of the opera into a
choral cantata, whence comes The Drinking Song. The words are
taken from an anonymous 16th century bawdy comedy.
“MLK” was the ambient-flavored final song on Irish band U2’s 1984
album The Unforgettable Fire. It became a hit and has been covered
numerous times, first by Joan Baez (on her 1988 album Recently) and
then by the King’s Singers (on their 1993 disc Good Vibrations), whence
it entered the standard a cappella repertoire.
“Mairi’s Wedding” was written in 1935 by Glasgow traditional
musician Johnny Bannerman for one Mary McNiven, who did
eventually marry a sea-captain from the Isle of Skye. The tune may or
may not be based on a traditional wedding reel from the Isle of Lewis.
The song quickly became a standard, often used for a 40-bar reel (hence
the popular alternative title “My, He’s Sweating”).

Conspirare has the privilege of performing in a variety of beautiful
venues. We seek out acoustical and aesthetic environments that can best
enhance choral performances and we are deeply grateful to our hosts.
While our performing venues may represent specific traditions and the
texts of some of our repertoire may also be representative of specific
traditions, it is in no way intended to be exclusive of any individual
whose experience or set of beliefs is not represented.

Conspirare respects and celebrates the great diversity of religious,
artistic, and human experiences represented among our singers and
audience members. Our shared musical experiences are intended to
bring us together as we all seek to be inspired by the power of great
choral music. The audience creates the space in which the music is held.

About Conspirare
collaborates frequently with other major arts organizations such as the Austin
Symphony Orchestra, Ballet Austin, and Victoria Bach Festival. Symphonic
Choir members participate regularly in Conspirare outreach programs and
serve as singing hosts for Conspirare’s popular Big Sings. The choir has won
several Austin Critics Table Awards, most recently for performances of Verdi’s
Requiem in 2008 and Cary Ratcliff’s Ode to Common Things with the Austin
Symphony in 2009.
The Conspirare Youth Choirs (CYC) were formed in 2005 as the educational
outreach program of Conspirare. The Youth Choirs seek and train young
musicians who share a love and commitment for creating music at a high level
of excellence. The CYC is comprised of two ensembles, Conspirare Kantorei
and Conspirare Children’s Choir. Both ensembles utilize a combination
of rigorous vocal, music theory, and sight-singing instruction to provide a
nurturing environment in which a young singer can explore the depth and
beauty of choral music. Public performances are given throughout the year,
and both ensembles participate in state and national tours The word “conspirare” derives from the Latin “con” and “spirare”
translated as “to breathe together.”
Founded in 1991 to present a summer classical music festival in Austin, Texas,
Conspirare has grown to become an internationally recognized, professional
choral organization. Led by founder and artistic director Craig Hella Johnson,
Conspirare is comprised of two performing ensembles and an educational
program. A professional chamber choir (“Conspirare” or “Company of
Voices”) of extraordinarily talented singers from around the country is
presented in an annual concert series in Austin, other Texas communities,
and locations in the U.S. and abroad. The Conspirare Symphonic Choir of
both professional and volunteer singers performs one or more large choral/
orchestral works annually. The Conspirare Youth Choirs is an educational
program for singers ages 8-16.
In 2005 Conspirare received the Margaret Hillis Award for Choral
Excellence, given by national service organization Chorus America. In
2007, as one of the select choral organizations to receive a grant from the
National Endowment for the Arts under its American Masterpieces initiative,
Conspirare presented a four-day festival that featured a distinguished
gathering of composers and conductors, performances of three world
premieres, and a gala closing concert with a choir of 600 singers. In July 2008
Conspirare/Company of Voices represented the United States at the Eighth
World Symposium on Choral Music in Copenhagen, joining invited choirs
from nearly forty countries. In February 2010, Company of Voices was an
invited, featured choir at the annual convention of the American Choral
Directors Association/Eastern Division in Philadelphia. Conspirare received
the 2010 Dale Warland Singers Commission Award from Chorus America to
support the commission of a new work by Seattle composer Eric Banks. In
February 2011, Company of Voices gave three invited performances in New
York City under auspices of the Weill Music Institute of Carnegie Hall.
The Conspirare Symphonic Choir, established in 2000, is an auditioned,
hundred-voice chorus of both professional and volunteer singers. Most reside
in the Austin area, though several commute to rehearsals and performances
from as far away as the Hill Country, San Antonio, and Victoria. All are
highly skilled singers with significant previous choral experience, and as
collaborative artists, they sing the great choral masterworks with orchestra
as well as new works for voices and instruments. The Symphonic Choir
performs in Austin and other cities as part of the Conspirare season, and

Boston University. She studied baroque recorder with John Tyson of
the New England Conservatory and performed with the Tanglewood
Festival Chorus under conductors Seiji Ozawa, John Williams, and
John Oliver.
Nina Revering has performed widely as a soloist and chorister
throughout the region and around the country. Soloist at St. Mary’s
Cathedral from 1994-1997, she was also Victoria Bach Festival’s New
Young Artist in 1994. Ms. Revering has been a member of Conspirare
since 1995 and was a soloist in the Grammy-nominated Requiem
CD, as well as the Threshold of Night CD, recently released under the
Harmonia Mundi label.
Ms. Revering taught music in Eanes schools from 1996-2003 and
recently returned to the elementary music classroom. A frequent
clinician, guest conductor, and vocal adjudicator around the state
of Texas, Nina Revering was one of eight conductors selected for
participation in the International Symposium for Children’s Choir
Directors held in Toronto, Canada in May 2005. She co-presented a
workshop with Rick Gabrillo on children’s choirs at the 2010 Eastern
Division American Choral Directors Association Convention in
Philadelphia. Professional affiliations include ACDA and TMEA.

Watch for the release of
Samuel Barber: American

This recording of Samuel Barber: American Romantic is lovingly dedicated to Fran Collmann in
