Kyrie Deus creator omnium

from The Lost Music of Canterbury (Boxed Set) by Blue Heron

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    A must-have for any serious collector of early choral music, this is a 5-CD set of the complete music from Blue Heron's groundbreaking, long-term Music from the Peterhouse Partbooks project (2010-2017). The package includes a new 84-page booklet with thousands of words on the works and history by Dr. Nick Sandon, as well as essays by Scott Metcalfe on performance practice, all illustrated with gorgeous color pictures. Complete texts and translations for the complete set are compiled in the single booklet, as well. The discs and booklet come housed in an attractive, early-to open box.

    The set includes mostly world premiere recordings and features masses by Nicholas Ludford, antiphons by Hugh Aston and Richard Pygott, the complete surviving works of Robert Jones, and the gifted though previously completely unknown composers Hugh Sturmy and Robert Hunt, and all but one of the surviving works of John Mason. The missing tenor parts have been supplied by Nick Sandon, who has dedicated much of his professional life to the Peterhouse partbooks, which were copied for Canterbury Cathedral in 1540 and are now named for the college currently housing them, Peterhouse Cambridge.

    Includes unlimited streaming of The Lost Music of Canterbury (Boxed Set) via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Deus creator omnium tu theos ymon nostri pie eleyson.
Tibi laudes conjubilantes regum rex Christe oramus te eleyson.
Laus virtus pax et imperium cui est semper sine fine eleyson.
Christe rex unice patris almi nate coeterne eleyson.
Qui perditum hominem salvasti de morte reddens vite eleyson.
Ne pereant pascue oves tue Jesu pastor bone eleyson. Consolator spiritus supplices ymas te exoramus eleyson. Virtus nostra domine atque salus nostra in eternum eleyson.
Summe Deus et une vite dona nobis tribue misertus nos- trique tu digneris eleyson.

O God, creator of all things, thou our merciful God, have mercy.
Singing your praises, O Christ, king of kings, we pray to thee, have mercy.
Praise, power, peace, and dominion to him who is forever without end: have mercy.
O Christ, sole king, born coeternal with the forgiving father, have mercy.
Thou who saved lost humanity, giving life for death, have mercy.
Lest your pastured sheep should perish, O Jesus, good shepherd, have mercy.
Consoler of suppliant spirits below, we beseech thee, have mercy.
Our strength, O Lord, and our salvation in eternity, have mercy.
Highest and only God, grant us life, the gift of compassion to those whom you favor: have mercy.
