Light up the darkness my wondrous star Our hopes and dreams my heart and yours forever shining far. Light up the darkness my prince of peace; May the stars shine all around you may your courage never cease. Wherever I am I will love you day by day I will keep you safe cling on to faith along the dark dark way. Wherever I am I will hold on through the night; I will pray each day a safe return will look now to the light. Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

The Golden Gryphon by Tom De Haes portrays three distinguished characteristics of this fascinating mythical beast: the gryphon as guardian of the divine mystery; the winged gryphon pulling the chariot of the sun god Helios; and the gryphon as heroic invincible creature.

When 18th century British composer Thomas Arne included his song Rule Britannia! in a masque based on the life of Alfred the Great that was presented at Cliveden the country home of Frederick Prince of Wales he could not have imagined that more than two hundred seventy years later his ditty would be known throughout the British Isles and beyond. Rule Britannia! is widely used in the Royal Navy and British Army and is featured each year at the Last Night of the Proms in the Royal Albert Hall as a national sing-along.At the time of writing the Dutch actually ‘ruled the waves ’ so this song was more an exhortation than a status report. The lyrics were also a statement ofcivil liberty. Since Cromwell’s time Britain had had a standing army which could be turned against the native population. A standing navy however existed solely to protect the nation from invaders protecting a free populace.Rule Britannia! has been quoted extensively by other composers among them Beethoven Wagner Strauss and Arthur Sullivan. Thomas Arne also penned a version of God Save The King which came to be the British national anthem.

The Good-morrow which was written in 1971 is a setting for mezzo-soprano and piano of five poems by John Donne. These are not songs in the closed sense: the settings deliberately blur one poem into the next so as to form a little musical drama about a passionate but light-hearted love-affair. The model for this piece was the beautiful song-cycle The voice of love (1966) by Nicholas Maw who was my teacher from 1968 until 1971 and whose influence upon my development was both strong and fruitful. My debt to Maw (who died in 2009) is great and this song-cycle was my grateful acknowledgement of it. The Good-morrow was first performed in 1986 at the Purcell Room London by Linda Hibberd and Giles Swayne. 1. I wonder by my troth 2. 'Tis true 'tis day 3. Come live with me and be my love 4. So so breake off this last lamenting kiss 5. Now thou hast lov'd me one whole day

Nunc autem manet was written for the wedding of Paul and Angharad de Cates in 2010. The text is taken from Corinthians 13:13 - Now but three things remain: faith hope love. But of these three the greatest - this is love.' The piece reveals the three fundamental tenets of Christian life with contrasting austere and lush harmonies and brief contrapuntal episodes ending with a gently pulsing chord-shift on the word caritas' over which the well-known plainsong melody ubi caritas' can be heard.

Edward Gregson completed Tributes in the summer of 2010. Lasting some 16 minutes there are five pieces in the set each dedicated to a different composer and a different clarinettist (with whom Gregson had long musical associations). Each of the dedicatee composers wrote wonderfully for the Clarinet and as a tribute to them Gregson tried to invade indeed imitate their stylistic worlds in these pieces. They are as follows: To Francis Poulenc (for Emma Johnson) – a rather dreamy toccata lyrical in feel but interrupted by typically quirky and disruptive rhythmic episodes. To Gerald Finzi (forJohn Bradbury) – slow and lyrical with long melodic arches. To Igor Stravinsky (for Linda Merrick) – asymmetric rhythms dominate with wide leaps in the solo line and bitonal harmony on the Piano. To Olivier Messiaen (for Nicholas Cox) – based on the ravishing slow movement for Cello in his Quartet for the End of Time a seamless melody is woven around ever-changing repeated chords on the Piano. To Béla Bartók (for Michael Collins) – the most virtuoso of the set; after a slow introduction a swirling folk-like dance unfolds mirroring Bartok’s penchant for simple modal shapes and ostinati rhythms.

This edition features fresh engravings with the Organ part printed on three staves. It also includes a paragraph explaining the historical background and context of the work.

The Prelude is a flowing 9/8 song; the four-Voice Fugue follows as the slow movement; the Variations return to the original prelude theme.It is difficult to overstate the importance of Franck’s Prelude Fugue and Variation for Organ both in his own compositional life and in the development of the French Organ school. The piece is widely believed to have been one of the elemental founding works of the school appearing at a time when French Organ music was at an ebb. Originally one of Six Pieces appearing in 1862 when Franck was forty years old the work established him in the minds of other young composers as a talent of serious proportions and marked the beginning of afulfilling adult life spent as a highly-regarded composer
