On Sunday, 22 September 2013 (Twenty-fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time), our choir
will sing the anthem "O Come, Ye Servants of the Lord,” by English
composer Christopher Tye.
Tye was chapel organist for both King Henry VIII and Catholic Queen Mary, so
his choral compositions include both English and Latin works.
Tye may have been music tutor to Edward VI, son of Henry VII. |
Here is a nice performance
of “O Come Ye Servants of the Lord” by a quartet at Grace Episcopal Church in Weslaco, Texas. Each vocal part is clearly distinguishable. If you need a copy of the
score, you can download one here. There is also a MIDI file that you may download.
