Paul Halley has resigned as Director of Music at The University of King's College Halifax, effective December 1, 2021
 
Paul Halley served for fourteen years as Director of Music at The University of King's College Halifax, from July 2007 to December 2021, during which time he expanded the chapel music programme, initiated choral scholarships for students, and directed the acclaimed King's Halifax Chapel Choir
in weekly Evensongs and Choral Eucharists at the college chapel as well as the 'King's at the Cathedral' concert series (begun 2008) of choral masterworks at the Cathedral Church of All Saints in Halifax. Fundamental and emerging differences between Halley and the college's current senior administration regarding the chapel music programme prompted Halley to tender his resignation.

‘PASSION: Music of A Thousand Years’ is a concert presentation with a millennium's span of rich and beautiful choral music. The concert this year will take place in Halifax on Palm Sunday, March 24, 2024 at 4:00 pm at The Cathedral Church of All Saints. Directed by Paul Halley, The Choir of All Saints Cathedral will showcase choral works in a fluid choreography that surrounds the audience with powerful and ethereal music, sung from various locations within the magnificent landmark building.

Among the many a cappella musical gems in this year's presentation will be Samuel Barber’s Agnus Dei, (a marvelous transcription that Barber himself made from his famous Adagio for Strings), Arvo Pärt’s The Deer’s Cry and the second set of Tallis’ Lamentations of Jeremiah. (The choir sang the first set last year.) As before, the choir will make good use of the acoustic properties of the Cathedral as they move about the building and sing from various resonant locations. And Halley’s new choral/organ setting of the hymn tune Blaenwern, ‘Love Divine, All Loves Excelling’, will close the program.

"A Rose In Winter"
A celebration of Christmas in song and story

The Choir of All Saints Cathedral, Halifax
directed by Paul Halley

with guest artist, Alexander Dobson, baritone

A presentation of To The Point Productions
on behalf of Paul Halley and The Choir of All Saints Cathedral

Grammy Award-winner Paul Halley will again showcase his singers from The Choir of All Saints Cathedral in a concert performance celebrating this joyous season. This year’s presentation will feature guest artist, Alexander Dobson, described by Opera Canada as “one of the most impressive Canadian baritones of this generation.” The highlight of the program of Christmas readings and carols will be Vaughan Williams’ “Fantasia on Christmas Carols”, with Dobson as baritone soloist, and choir and organ performing what is best described as the spirit of the season encapsulated in sound.

 

Alexander Dobson, whose rich and sonorous baritone voice is known to audiences of both opera and oratorio, was recently heard in Capella Regalis’ ‘For All The City’ presentation of the Faure “Requiem”. Dobson is sure to please the crowds again this December in ‘A Rose In Winter’. “Dobson, one of the most impressive Canadian baritones of this generation, is a wonderful actor and has a beautiful, rich and commanding voice, that is also as smooth as silk.” — Opera Canada

‘Passion: Music of A Thousand Years’ is a concert presentation of a millennium’s worth of stunningly beautiful choral music that will take place in Halifax on Sunday, April 2, 2023 at 4:00 pm. Directed by Paul Halley, members of The Cathedral Choir of All Saints Cathedral in Halifax will showcase choral works in a fluid choreography that will surround the audience with powerful and ethereal music, sung from various locations within the grand, landmark historic building that is the Cathedral Church of All Saints. The music presented in this concert was written at points throughout the last one thousand years in commemoration of the forty days leading up to Easter, a period in the Church year known as Lent. Over the centuries, poets and composers have taken inspiration from the biblical narratives of the Passion, the Psalms, and Old Testament prophets, to create works of astonishing depth and beauty. The dramatic power of these texts has drawn out the most exquisite music from some of the greatest musicians over the last 1,000 years. From 11th century Gregorian chant, through Tallis and Byrd, and Shaker songs and African American Spirituals, to Poulenc and contemporary composers, the works on this program represent an enormous range of expression.

"A Rose In Winter"

A celebration of Christmas in song and story

The Choir of All Saints Cathedral, Halifax
directed by Paul Halley

with guest artist, Old Man Luedecke

Christmas is back! After a three-year hiatus, Grammy winner Paul Halley will showcase his signature choir, The Choir of All Saints Cathedral, in a live concert performance celebrating Christmas. Entitled “A Rose In Winter”, this concert of song and story is a continuation of the Christmas concert tradition at the Cathedral that Halley established in 2008 upon his arrival in Halifax. The Cathedral Choir and Paul Halley will be joined by guest, Old Man Luedecke, in a reprise of his 2019 appearance in the genial role of narrator - to read and recite, to sing, and to, no doubt, play the banjo. A two-time Juno Award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter, Old Man Luedecke delivers narrative-driven folk songs with a storyteller's heart. About the choir, Paul Halley remarks, “This is a spectacular group of young musicians. The vibrancy and fullness of sound and high level of musical accomplishment make this the best choir I’ve worked with.”

Only two shows of this much-loved holiday offering are scheduled so audiences are advised to get tickets early. The first performance takes place at St. John’s Anglican Church, Lunenburg on Saturday, December 10th, and the Halifax performance takes place on Sunday, December 11th in the glorious acoustics of All Saints Cathedral. Shows at both locations begin at 4:00 pm.

Philippe Gagne' - tenor

The Chapel Choir's cycle of Baroque masterworks brings them back to J.S. Bach's 'St. John Passion'this spring. This masterful representation of the Passion of Christ according to St John was first performed in Leipzig on Good Friday of 1724. It is a musically extravagant setting full of foreboding and intensity yet startling in its beauty. In Halley's view, the piece is "possibly Bach's most intense and dramatic work". The choir will be joioned by 17 instrumentalists playing period instruments and six vocal soloists from the Early Music scene in Canada dn the U.K.

A Feast of Seasonal Song and Story
with Guest Narrator, 'Old Man Luedecke',
singer/songwriter/storyteller

The Chapel Choir of the University of King's College Halifax
Paul Halley, Director of Music
Nick Halley, Assistant Director

Described by the Chronicle Herald as “annual magic”, 'A King’s Christmas', directed by Paul Halley and featuring The Chapel Choir of The University of King's College, has become a seasonal tradition for many Nova Scotians. Each year, the performances feature carols from the mediaeval to the modern, as well as seasonal readings selected by a special guest narrator. The narrator for this, the 12th concert season, will be 'Old Man Luedecke', Nova Scotia’s Juno Award-winning songwriter and banjo player. Old Man Luedecke is loved by audiences for the engagin folk tunes he writes and for his off-the-cuff story-telling in a style that is both humorous and poignant, on themes of life and love, with a decidedly Maritime twist.

"Requiem" by Alfred Schnittke
 
King's at the Cathedral Series - 'For All The Saints'

The Chapel Choir of the University of King's College
Paul Halley, Director of Music
Nick Halley, Music Scholar

Ensemble Regale - myriad instruments
and Paul Halley, organist

Paul Halley remarks: "This coming Sunday afternoon (November 3rd) at 4:00 p.m. the King’s Chapel Choir will be presenting their annual “For All the Saints” concert at All Saints Cathedral. Our featured piece will be Alfred Schnittke’s Requiem, which we performed seven years ago. The audience response was pretty wild, as is the work itself.

I first encountered Schnittke’s compositions when I toured what was then the Soviet Union in 1984 and I was overwhelmed by the grit and power of his music. His voice was, and still is, utterly unique. He is steeped in the European tradition but is fearless in drawing from all manner of genres and styles. His Requiem is truly the most dramatic, I would even say, shocking setting of the text that I have ever heard. Scored for choir, soloists, trumpet, trombone, organ, piano, celeste, electric bass and guitar, and a huge array of percussion instruments, this Mass for the Dead is a haunting portrayal of chaos, despair, and darkness, but also of profound hope and exquisite beauty. Whatever happens, I can guarantee it’s not going to be one of those “well, that was nice” concerts!"

It has been five years since the Chapel Choir last performed Bach’s magnificent 'St Matthew Passion'. Scored for double choir, double orchestra, and soloists, this masterwork tells the story of Christ’s Passion using the narrative from the Gospel of St Matthew and additional texts by Bach’s librettist, Picander.  The role of the Evangelist will be sung by reknowned British tenor, Charles Daniels. The chamber orchestra, Ensemble Regale, is led by Baroque master David Greenberg and includes instrumentalists from Nova Scotia and across Canada. These performances will also feature the boy sopranos of Capella Regalis Men & Boys Choir and a line-up of stellar soloists from Canada’s early music scene. The Chapel Choir’s performances five years ago were named “the East Coast choral event of the season” by CBC Music. The University of King’s College has won a reputation for presenting world-class performances of the great Baroque masterworks right here in Nova Scotia. Please join us.

"Requiem" by Maurice Durufle

and Paul Halley, organist

5:00 p.m. (Atlantic Standard Time)
Cathedral Church of All Saints, Halifax
, NS


This annual tribute to those who have gone before and the opening concert of the 2018-19 King’s at the Cathedral concert series featured the supremely beautiful Requiem by French composer Maurice Duruflé (1948). Duruflé dedicated the work to the memory of his father. He had grown weary of increasingly overblown settings of the Requiem text and decided to return to the original Gregorian chant as his basic thematic material. To the chant he added masterful choral and orchestral arrangements that call to the mind of the listener images of heavenly bliss deftly interwoven with a sense of human pathos and our longing for eternal peace.

The Duruflé Requiem was performed with Ensemble Regale (a hand-picked chamber orchestra) and with Paul Halley as organist and Nick Halley directing orchestra and choir.

The concert also featured O quam gloriosum est regnum (O how glorious is the kingdom) by the English Renaissance composer William Byrd, a setting of Timete Dominum omnes sancti ejus (Fear the Lord, all ye his saints) by Italian Renaissance composer Ascanio Trombetti, G. P. da Palestrina’s Nunc Dimittis for double choir, 20th-century English composer Benjamin Britten’s Te Deum in C, and contemporary English composer Jonathan Dove’s Into Thy Hands.

The University of King's College Chapel Choir suspended its cycle of Bach masterworks for one year to present another great pillar of the Baroque repertoire – the Vespers of 1610 by Claudio Monteverdi.  A monumental work scored for soloists, choir, and orchestra, the Vespers foreshadowed the religious masterworks of Bach and Handel, and has earned a place in the history of western music as a revolutionary and now iconic work.

From the CBC Producer (Commissioning organization):
"Hi, Paul - Just a brief note to tell you that your arrangement was a huge hit.  Honestly, I simply was stunned by it.  How anyone can have something new to say about this tune astounds me.  But you did. 
The 3rd verse, the trumpet repeating the sounding joy in imitation, and the final fanfare, up to the last note, it was all grand. 
Another winner!"
