Website: https://www.johnrutter.com LYRICS: When Mary thro’ the garden went, There was no sound of any bird, And yet, because the night was spent, The little grasses lightly stirred, The flowers awoke, the lilies heard. When Mary thro’ the garden went, The dew lay still on flower and grass, The waving palms above her sent Their fragrance out as she did pass. No light upon their branches was. When Mary thro’ the garden went, Her eyes, for weeping long, were dim. The grass beneath her footsteps bent, The solemn lilies, white and slim, These also stood and wept for Him. When Mary thro’ the garden went, She sought, within the garden ground, One for Whom her heart was rent, One Who for her sake was bound, One Who sought, and she was found. (Mary Coleridge 1861–1907) When Mary thro' the garden went Stanford, in common with most of his English contemporaries, wrote numerous part-songs, of which 'The Blue Bird' (1910) is the most renowned. The same poet, Mary Coleridge, inspired his Op. 127 set, written in the same year; 'When Mary thro' the garden went' is No. 3. The Mary of the title is Mary Magdalene, and Stanford's setting of this devotional poem perfectly evokes the still, rapt atmosphere of the first Easter morning. Stanford and Howells Remembered This recording is a choral tribute to the sacred music of two visionary composers: Stanford and Howells, who, among their other achievements, made distinctive, lasting and much-cherished contributions to the musical repertory of the English Church. 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.
