Description/Remarks

An inspiring and exciting arrangement that has become an international festival favorite

Combines Kyrie de Angelis, Haleluya Pelo Tsa Rona/Siyahamba, and Amazing Grace.
__________________________________________________

“’Trilogy’ here refers not to the individual tunes that are so magically blended, first sequentially and then simultaneously, but rather to the three sonic worlds that the tunes represent: Gregorian chant yields to the sounds of Africa before both are gloriously embraced by ‘Amazing Grace’. Halley’s vision of a world without boundaries is powerfully conveyed in a work that will continue to delight, inspire, and amaze after many repeated auditions.” – Jennifer Kolmes, The American Organist Magazine

Kyrie eleison                 Lord have mercy 

Chant from Missa de Angelis
– 16th cent.

Haleluya! Pelo tsa rona
Haleluya! Pelo tsa rona, di thabile kaofela.
Ke Morena Jeso, ya re dumeletseng,
ya re dumeletseng ho tsamaisa evangedi.
 

Halleluya! We sing your praises, all our hearts are filled with gladness. Christ the Lord to us said: I am wine, I am bread,
I am wine, I am bread, give to all who thirst and hunger.

South African, collected by Anders Nyberg

Siyahamba
South African, collected by Anders Nyberg
Siya hamb’ ekukhanyen’ kwenkos.
Siya hamba, hamba, siya hamba, hamba,
Siya hamb’ ekukhanyen’kwenkos

We are marching in the light of God.
We are marching, marching; we are marching, marching.
We are marching in the light of God

South African, collected by Anders Nyberg

Amazing Grace
Amazing grace!
How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost
But now am found,
Was blind but now I see.

Words by John Newton
