A nativity play made up of music, speech, dance and mime took place almost every Christmas in the Millroom at Springhead, home of the Gardiner family in Fontmell Magna, Dorset. The actors were school-children, farmers, farmhands and local craftsmen and women and teachers, supplemented, as the years went on, by young professional singers from London who came to celebrate the period between Christmas and New Year in Dorset. The play was the brain-child of Marabel Gardiner, who directed the mime and her husband Rolf who gave the readings which punctuated the music and action. Their three children, of whom John Eliot Gardiner is the youngest, all took part in one capacity or another.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking as its source almost exclusively music performed at those Christmas family and friend gatherings, the selection is amplified with music that Gardiner feels would have been a perfect fit for the time. The range is eclectic, the performances exquisite and Gardiner writes the extensive and affectionate note that accompanies this release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD_1_81beb09d-4c29-4149-bf73-0d3740fd1d73_480x480.png?v=1595264371\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eROBERT COWPER: Gloria in excelsis Deo\u003cbr\u003eKatherine Fuge \u0026amp; Nicola Jenkin, sopranos\u003cbr\u003eElinor Carter, alto\u003cbr\u003eJulian Podger, tenor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.:\u003cbr\u003eAve Maria, gratia plena\u003cbr\u003eSara Mingardo, soprano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAngelus ad Virginem\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGIOVANNI PIERLUIGI DA PALESTRINA: Alma Redemptoris Mater\u003cbr\u003eJulian Podger, tenor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.:Gabriel’s message\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGIOVANNI BASSANIO: Hodie Christus natus est\u003cbr\u003eJeremy West \u0026amp; Michael Harrison, cornets\u003cbr\u003eSackbutts: Susan Addison, alto\u003cbr\u003eAbigail Newman, tenor\u003cbr\u003eAdam Woolf, tenor\u003cbr\u003eRobert Goodhew, bass\u003cbr\u003eIan Watson, organ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.: Jolly Shepherd\u003cbr\u003eRachel Beckett, soprano recorder\u003cbr\u003eNoel Mann, drum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJAN PIETERSZOON SWEELINCK: Hodie Christus natus est\u003cbr\u003eJeremy West \u0026amp; Michael Harrison, cornets\u003cbr\u003eSackbutts: Susan Addison, alto\u003cbr\u003eAbigail Newman, tenor\u003cbr\u003eAdam Woolf, tenor\u003cbr\u003eRobert Goodhew, bass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.:\u003cbr\u003ePast three a clock\u003cbr\u003eEs ist ein Ros’ entsprungen\u003cbr\u003eThere is no rose of such virtu\u003cbr\u003eLAJOS BARDOS: Ave maris stella\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHERBERT HOWELLS: A Spotless Rose\u003cbr\u003eMichael McCarthy, solo bass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWILLIAM BYRD: O magnum mysterium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHEINRICH SCHUTZ: Ach Herr, Du Schöpfer\u003cbr\u003eIan Watson, organ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.:\u003cbr\u003eThis endris night\u003cbr\u003eEntre le boeuf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGuillô, pran ton tamborin\u003cbr\u003eRachel Beckett, soprano recorder\u003cbr\u003eNoel Mann, drum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePsallite\u003cbr\u003eSackbutts: Susan Addison, alto\u003cbr\u003eAbigail Newman, tenor\u003cbr\u003eRobert Goodhew, bass\u003cbr\u003eIan Watson, organ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRICHARD DERING: Quem vidistes pastores?\u003cbr\u003eJeremy West \u0026amp; Michael Harrison, cornets\u003cbr\u003eSackbutts: Susan Addison, alto\u003cbr\u003eAbigail Newman, tenor\u003cbr\u003eAdam Woolf, tenor\u003cbr\u003eRobert Goodhew, bass\u003cbr\u003eIan Watson, organ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.: The Cradle\u003cbr\u003eWILLIAM BYRD: Lullaby\u003cbr\u003eANON.:\u003cbr\u003eEl Rorro\u003cbr\u003eOnce as I remember\u003cbr\u003eJOHN TAVENER: The Lamb\u003cbr\u003eJOHANN GOTTLIEB WALTHER: Joseph lieber, Joseph mein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJOHN ELIOT GARDNER: Entry of the Three Kings\u003cbr\u003eJohn Anderson, oboe\/cor anglais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eANON.: The King of all Kings\u003cbr\u003eKatherine Fuge, soprano solo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eROBERT ARMSTRONG: Ring out ye crystal spheres\u003cbr\u003eTHOMAS WEELKES: Gloria in excelsis deo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMonteverdi Choir\u003cbr\u003eJohn Eliot Gardiner\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DECCA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32264736440407,"sku":"028948065530 etc","price":7.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/products\/2046321.jpg?v=1596137539","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/de-de\/products\/once-as-i-remember-import","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
