TEXTS & TRANSLATIONS

Jesu, meine Freude,meines Herzens Weide,

Jesu, meine Zier,

ach, wie lang, ach, lange

ist dem Herzen bange

und verlangt nach dir!

Gottes Lamm, mein Bräutigam,

außer dir soll mir auf Erden

nichts sonst Liebers werden.

Es ist nun nichts Verdammliches an denen, die in

Christo Jesu sind, die nicht nach dem Fleische

wandeln, sondern nach dem Geist.

Unter deinem Schirmen bin ich vor den Stürmen

aller Feinde frei.

Lass den Satan wittern,

lass den Feind erbittern,

mir steht Jesus bei.

Ob es itzt gleich kracht und blitzt,

ob gleich Sünd und Hölle schrecken:

Jesus will mich decken.

Denn das Gesetz des Geistes,

der da lebendig macht in Christo Jesu, hat mich frei

gemacht von dem Gesetz der Sünde und des Todes.

Trotz dem alten Drachen,

trotz des Todes Rachen,

trotz der Furcht darzu!

Tobe, Welt, und springe,

ich steh hier und singe

in gar sichrer Ruh.

Gottes Macht hält mich in Acht;

Erd und Abgrund muss verstummen,

ob sie noch so brummen.

0OY�HILY�ZLPK�UPJO[�ÅLPZJOSPJO, sondern geistlich, so

anders Gottes Geist in euch wohnet. Wer aber Christi

Geist nicht hat, der ist nicht sein.

Jesus, my joy,

my heart’s delight,

Jesus, my treasure!

Ah! how long, how long

has my heart been troubled

and desirous of Thee!

Lamb of God, my bridegroom,

nothing on earth can be

dearer to me than Thee.

There is therefore now no condemnation to them

^OPJO�HYL�PU�*OYPZ[�1LZ\Z��^OV�^HSR�UV[�HM[LY�[OL�ÅLZO��but after the Spirit.

Beneath Thy shield

I am protected from the raging storms

of all my enemies.

Let Satan storm,

let the foe rage,

Jesus will stand by me!

Though there now be thunder and lightning,

though sin and Hell spread terror,

Jesus will protect me.

For the law of the Spirit

which made Christ Jesus live hath set me free

from the laws of sin and death.

Despite the old dragon,

despite the jaws of death,

despite the fear of death!

Rage, O world, and rear up,

I shall stand here and sing

PU�JVUÄKLU[�[YHUX\PSSP[`�I respect God’s might;

earth and abyss will be silenced,

however much they now demur.

the spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

JESU, MEINE FREUDE

Weg mit allen Schätzen! du bist mein Ergötzen,

Jesu, meine Lust!

Weg ihr eitlen Ehren,

ich mag euch nicht hören,

bleibt mir unbewusst!

Elend, Not, Kreuz, Schmach und Tod

soll mich, ob ich viel muss leiden,

nicht von Jesu scheiden.

So aber Christus in euch ist, so ist der Leib zwar tot

um der Sünde willen; der Geist aber ist das Leben um

der Gerechtigkeit willen.

Gute Nacht, o Wesen,

das die Welt erlesen,

mir gefällst du nicht.

Gute Nacht, ihr Sünden,

bleibet weit dahinten,

kommt nicht mehr ans Licht!

Gute Nacht, du Stolz und Pracht!

dir sei ganz, du Lasterleben,

gute Nacht gegeben.

So nun der Geist des, der Jesum von den Toten

auferwecket hat, in euch wohnet, so wird auch

derselbige, der Christum von den Toten auferwecket

hat, eure sterbliche Leiber lebendig machen um des

willen, dass sein Geist in euch wohnet.

Weicht, ihr Trauergeister, denn mein Freudenmeister,

Jesus, tritt herein.

Denen, die Gott lieben,

muss auch ihr Betrüben

lauter Zucker sein.

Duld ich schon hier Spott und Hohn,

dennoch bleibst du auch im Leide,

Jesu, meine Freude.

Away with all riches,

Thou art my delight,

Jesu, my desire.

Away with you, vain honours,

I shall not give ear to you,

do not enter my mind!

4PZLY �̀�KPZ[YLZZ��HɊPJ[PVU��ZOHTL�HUK�KLH[O��OV^L]LY�T\JO�0�T\Z[�Z\ɈLY�these shall not tear me from Jesus.

And if Christ be in you,

the body is dead because of sin;

but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

Farewell, O you

who have chosen the world;

I do not love you.

Farewell, O sins,

stay far behind me,

never come to light again!

Farewell, O pride and pomp!

Life of wickedness,

may you be wreathed in night!

But if the spirit of Him

that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you,

he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also

quicken your mortal bodies by His spirit that dwelleth

in you.

Depart hence, you spirits of sadness,

for the master of joy,

Jesus, enters.

To those whom God loves,

even their sorrow

must be sweetened.

Though I endure mockery and scorn on earth,

REQUIEM

I. INTROITUS

Kyrie eleison;

Christe eleison;

Kyrie eleison.

Lord, have mercy upon us;

Christ, have mercy upon us;

Lord, have mercy upon us.

Dies iraeDies irae, dies illa

Solvet saeclum in favilla

Teste David cum Sibylla.

Quantus tremor est futurus

Quando judex est venturus

Cuncta stricte discussurus!

Tuba mirumTuba, mirum spargens sonum

Per sepulchra regionum,

Coget omnes ante thronum.

Mors stupebit et natura

Cum resurget creatura

Judicanti responsura.

Liber scriptus proferetur

In quo totum continetur

Unde mundus judicetur.

Judex ergo cum sedebit

Quidquid latet apparebit:

Nil inultum remanebit.

Quid sum miser tunc dicturus,

Quem patronum rogaturus,

Cum vix justus sit securus?

The day of wrath, that day

shall dissolve the world in ashes,

as prophesied by David and the Sibyl.

How great will be the terror

when the Judge comes

who shall destroy everything completely!

The trumpet, scattering a wondrous sound

through the tombs of every land,

shall drive all unto the Throne.

Death and Nature shall be astounded

when the creature shall rise again

to answer to the Judge.

A written book shall be brought forth

which contains everything

for which the world shall be judged.

And therefore when the Judge takes His seat,

whatever is hidden shall be revealed;

nothing shall remain unavenged.

What can a wretch like me say?

Whom can I ask to advocate on my behalf,

when not even the most righteous are safe?

II. KYRIE

III. SEQUENTIA

Qui salvandos salvas gratis;

Salva me, fons pietatis.

Quod sum causa tuae viae

Ne me perdas illa die.

Quaerens me sedisti lassus;

Redemisti crucem passus.

Tantus labor non sit cassus.

Juste Judex ultionis

Donum fac remissionis

Ante diem rationis.

Ingemisco tanquam reus:

Culpa rubet vultus meus.

Supplicanti parce, Deus.

Qui Mariam absolvisti

Et latronem exaudisti,

Mihi quoque spem dedisti.

Preces meae non sunt dignae,

Sed tu bonus fac benigne,

Ne perenni cremer igne.

Inter oves locum praesta

Et ab haedis me sequestra,

Statuens in parte dextra.

Judicandus homo reus.

Huic ergo parce, Deus,

Pie Jesu Domine:

Dona eis requiem. Amen.

King of awful majesty,

who freely savest the redeemed;

save me, O fount of mercy.

Remember, merciful Jesus,

that I was the reason for your journey:

do not destroy me on that day.

In seeking me, Thou didst sit wearily:

;OV\�KPKZ[�YLKLLT�TL��Z\ɈLYPUN�[OL�JYVZZ!�do not let these labors be in vain.

Just Judge of vengeance,

give the gift of remission

before the day of reckoning.

I groan as the guilty one

and my face blushes in sin.

Spare me, O God, thy suppliant.

Thou who absolved Mary Magdalen,

and heard the thief’s prayer,

hast given hope to me also.

My prayers are not worthy,

but show mercy, O benevolent one,

SLZ[�0�I\YU�PU�L]LYSHZ[PUN�ÄYL�Give me place among the sheep

and pull me apart from the goats,

seating me on Thy right hand.

When the damned are confounded

HUK�MLK�[V�ÄLYJL�ÅHTLZ�call me with the blessed ones.

I pray, kneeling in supplication,

a heart contrite as ashes,

take my end into Your care.

Lamentable is that day

on which the guilty man rises

from the ashes to be judged.

Therefore, spare this one, O God,

merciful Lord Jesus:

grant them peace. Amen.

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY GLEE CLUBONE HUNDRED FORTY-THIRD SEASON

Ulysses S. Grant was president, Verdi’s Requiem was premiered and the Battle of the Little Big Horn was still

two years in the future when Princeton University’s Glee Club was founded in 1874 by Andrew Fleming West

Since that time, the ensemble has established

itself as the largest choral body on Princeton’s campus, and has distinguished itself both nationally and

overseas.

the Philadelphia Orchestra in 1931. Further accolades saw performances of Bach’s Mass in B Minor at the

Vassar, Bryn Mawr, Wellesley, Mount Holyoke, or Smith Colleges continued until the advent of coeducation.)

In the 1950s, under the direction of its longest-serving conductor Walter L. Nollner, the Glee Club traveled

Nowadays the Glee Club performs frequently on Princeton’s campus, enjoying the wonderful acoustics and

surroundings of Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall. There are four major performances each year,

and numerous special appearances at functions and gatherings around campus. Perhaps the choir’s most

celebrated performing tradition began in 1913, with the annual concerts presented jointly with the Glee

Clubs of Harvard and Yale on the eve of the respective football games. A more recent tradition has seen the

establishment of annual performances of choral masterworks with professional soloists and orchestra, now

The choir’s repertoire is extremely diverse, embracing anything from renaissance motets and madrigals,

Romantic partsongs and 21st century choral commissions to the more traditional Glee Club fare of spirituals,

folk music and college songs. The spectrum of Glee Club members is perhaps even broader: undergraduates

and graduate students, scientists and poets, philosophers and economists - all walks of academic life are

represented, knit together by their belief in the nobility and joy of singing together.

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRAMICHAEL PRATT, DIRECTOR

The Princeton University Orchestra began with a group of professional musicians from the New York

Symphony and Philharmonic Societies who performed a series of concerts at Alexander Hall in 1896, the

ÄYZ[�VU�-LIY\HY`�����;OL�WYVJLLKZ�^LYL�¸KL]V[LK�[V�[OL�M\UKZ�MVY�[OL�LZ[HISPZOTLU[�VM�H�:JOVVS�VM�4\ZPJ�for the study of Musical Composition, Theory, and History at Princeton University.” In the ensuing 120 years,

the orchestra has come to be an almost exclusively student organization; some 90-100 undergraduate and

graduate musicians representing a broad spectrum of academic departments come together for concerts in

Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall.

Under the direction of Michael Pratt since 1977, the orchestra has in recent years taken an important place

in the state’s concert calendar. The Newark Star-Ledger� OHK� OPNO� WYHPZL� MVY� [OL� VYJOLZ[YH»Z� ¸WHZZPVUH[L�WLYMVYTHUJL¹�VM�4HOSLY»Z�¸9LZ\YYLJ[PVU¹�:`TWOVU`�HUK�JHSSLK�[OL�WLYMVYTHUJL�VM�4HOSLY»Z�;OPYK�:`TWOVU`�VUL� ¸[OH[�^V\SK�THRL� HU`� VYJOLZ[YH� WYV\K�¹� ;OL�7YPUJL[VU�<UP]LYZP[`�6YJOLZ[YH� WLYMVYTZ� [LU� [V� ÄM[LLU�concerts a year on campus, in addition to international tours. These concerts include both new music and

works from the standard repertory. Audience members and critics alike have commented that even the most

familiar works take on a new freshness in the enthusiastic, spirited and precise performances given by the

Princeton musicians.

The orchestra also serves an important role in Princeton’s Department of Music by both reading and

performing new works by graduate composition students. In addition, the orchestra has also been invited

to give command performances for special University events, such as the installation of President Harold

Shapiro, and the celebration of Princeton’s 250th Anniversary. In April 2001, the Orchestra appeared in

of The Iliad and The Odyssey. The Orchestra has represented Princeton on tours both of the United States

and Europe. Recent tours have seen visits to London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Madrid, Barcelona, Prague,

Bratislava, Budapest and Vienna. In January 2007 the Orchestra’s performance in Bratislava was taped

for later broadcast on Slovak television. Participation in the orchestra is voluntary and extracurricular;

students commit many hours to rehearsal above and beyond the time required for academic course work.

Graduates of the orchestra have gone on to be performers, music teachers, and arts administrators, but the
