LYRICS:
Ave verum Corpus, natum
De Maria Virgine,
Vere passum, immolatum
In cruce pro homine.
Cuius latus perforatum
Unda fluxit sanguine;
Esto nobis praegustatum,
Mortis in examine.
O Jesu, Jesu dulcis,
O Jesu, Jesu pie,
O Jesu, fili Mariae,
Tu nobis miserere. Amen
(Sequence hymn for the feast of Corpus Christi)
Hail, true body of Christ
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Who truly suffered, sacrificed
On the cross for mankind.
From whose pierced side
Flowed water and blood;
Be our consolation
In death’s ordeal.
O Jesu, sweet Jesu,
O Jesu, holy Jesu,
O Jesu, son of Mary,
Have mercy upon us. Amen.)
Fauré Requiem and other sacred music
John Rutter’s Gramophone Award-winning 1984 recording of Fauré’s Requiem, re-released in 2010 at mid-price. The first-ever performance on disc of the work in its intimate original version - famously re-discovered by Rutter in the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris after a century of neglect - it remains one of the timeless jewels in the crown of the Collegium catalogue.
John Rutter, English composer and conductor, is associated with choral music throughout the world. His recordings with the Cambridge Singers (the professional chamber choir he set up in 1983) have reached a wide global audience, many of them featuring his own music in definitive versions. Among John’s best-known choral works are Gloria, Requiem, Magnificat, Mass of the Children, and Visions, together with many church anthems, choral songs and Christmas carols.
