And I John saw The holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of Heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of Heaven, saying, Behold, The tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with Them, and They shall be his people, and God himself shall be with Them, and be Their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from Their eyes; and There shall be no more death, neiTher sorrow, nor crying, neiTher shall There be any more pain: for The former things are passed away. (Revelation 21) Sung at Canterbury CaThedral during our Royal School of Church Music Summer Course in 1986, under Martin How. I (David W Solomons) was one of The altos. John Huntley - a fellow alto - recorded this performance.  less

Johannes Hiemetsberger stellt in seinen Programmen dabei immer wieder Repertoire vom Beginn der Mehrstimmigkeit bis in die unmittelbare Gegenwart in Beziehung und verbündet sich darüber hinaus mit Partnern aus allen künstlerischen Lagern, um Gesungenes im breiten Spektrum und in unberechenbaren Situationen zu verkosten.

Sing Me to Heaven Text by Jane Griner In my heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poets' gloss Words alone are vain and vacant, and my heart is mute In response to aching silence, memory summons half-heard voices And my soul finds primal eloquence, and wraps me in song If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby If you would win my heart, sing me a love song If you would mourn me and bring me to God, sing me a requiem, sing me to Heaven Touch in me all love and passion, pain and pleasure Touch in me grief and comfort, love and passion, pain and pleasure Sing me a lullaby, a love song, a requiem Love me, comfort me, bring me to God Sing me a love song, sing me to Heaven  less
