Website: https://www.johnrutter.com LYRICS: Down by the sally gardens my love and I did meet. She passed the sally gardens with little snow-white feet. She bid me take love easy, As the leaves grow on the tree. But I being young and foolish, With her did not agree. In a field by the river my love and I did stand. And on my leaning shoulder she placed her snow-white hand. She bid me take life easy, As the grass grows on the weirs. But I was young and foolish, And now am full of tears. W. B. Yeats, 1865–1939 The Sprig of Thyme The Sprig of Thyme offers a selection of traditional songs of the British Isles, drawing together long-standing favourites as Willow Song and The Miller of Dee with lesser known gems as O Can Ye Sew Cushions and The Sprig of Thyme. Many new settings for choir and small instrumental group have been created by John Rutter especially for this album. Rutter’s suite of eleven traditional songs, The Sprig of Thyme (all of which can be heard on this album) is published by Oxford University Press. ‘This is a lovely disc; one to head my list of Christmas presents for musical friends…’ Gramophone “This superb collection of traditional English songs, arranged by R. Vaughan Williams and John Rutter, is drawn from nursery rhymes, scout camps, and hymns from High Church assemblies. Sung in the peerless tones of The Cambridge Singers, these humble songs echo the gentility and cultural nationalism of postwar England. Included are bold drinking songs, tender lullabies, and love songs of fragile beauty. They bring delight and pleasure from a vanished age.” AllMusic 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.
