what you’ll see on stage, UMS has a robust education program
serving people of all ages and also oversees the 175-voice
Grammy Award-winning UMS Choral Union. We welcome you

our campaign, joining us at the Ann Arbor Y for a community
dance class with a visiting dance company, or buying a ticket to a
performance. We’re always eager to hear from you, too! Join the
conversation and share your thoughts after a performance at the
now-easier and more-connected ums.org. And if you have any
comments, questions, or concerns, we know that Ken would be

Tradition
Builds the Future

FA L L 2 0 1 6

In our 138th season, we continue to showcase traditional performances
alongside contemporary artists for an offering that is unlike anything
available in the Midwest. UMS grew from a group of local members of the
University and townspeople in the 1870s who gathered together for the
study of Handel’s Messiah. Led by Professor Henry Simmons Frieze and
conducted by Professor Calvin Cady, the group assumed the name The
Choral Union. Many Choral Union members were also affiliated with the
University, and the University Musical Society was established soon after
in December 1880.
Since that first season, UMS has expanded greatly and now presents the
very best from a wide spectrum of the performing arts: internationally
renowned recitalists and orchestras, dance and chamber ensembles, jazz
and global music performers, and contemporary stagework and classical
theater. Through educational programming, the commissioning of new
works, youth programs, artist residencies, and collaborative projects,
we continue to strengthen our reputation for artistic distinction and
innovation.

every first- and second-year student one free ticket —
Bert’s Ticket — to introduce them to a cultural experience at
Michigan and keep my father’s passion for the arts alive.”

affection for the Brooklyn Dodgers and Jackie Robinson, began
nearly 70 years ago as teenagers in New York City. That’s why
we are so pleased to create an endowment that will bring song
recitals to UMS audiences for generations to come.”

A V E N E T I A N C O R O N AT I O N 1 5 9 5
Music and Ceremony at St. Mark’s
The Basilica of St. Mark served a dual
function as both private chapel of
the Doge and principal church of the
State, and as such figured prominently
in Venetian political life. With its
own distinctive liturgy, a minutely
detailed ceremonial, sumptuous
mosaic decoration, works of art, and
magnificent music, the Basilica not
only reflected vividly the worldly
glories of the Serenissima Repubblica,
but also served to illustrate a complex
fusion of political and religious
ideology. Differing ranks of feasts
called for specific types of music: in
particular, the formal appearance of the
Doge at Mass and Vespers on 30 or so
days each year required the exposition
of the great golden altarpiece, the Pala
d’oro, the presence of instrumentalists
and the performance of elaborate
music. Every few years a major
event would demand yet more lavish
celebration: the signing of a treaty, a
naval victory, the end of a plague, the
visit of a prince or ambassador, or the
coronation of a Doge. These festivals
are frequently described in Venetian
histories and, even judged by Venetian
standards of opulence, would be of
quite stupendous extravagance. This
performance recreates one such event,
the Coronation Mass of Doge Marino
Grimani celebrated on the morning of
April 27, 1595.
The Venetian Coronation Rite
Venice’s meritocratic form of
government, and the role of the
Doge as primus inter pares, led
to a coronation ritual that differs
substantially from most other European

rites. After a complex system of
balloting by 41 senior statesmen, the
election of a new Doge was heralded
by the ringing of bells. If the choice
proved popular, widespread rejoicing
would often follow.
The official coronation ceremonies
were tripartite. The Doge entered St.
Mark’s where he received the Ducal
banner and was presented to the
people; he was then carried around the
Piazza San Marco, throwing specially
minted coins to the crowds, and finally
he was crowned with the Ducal beretta
on top of the Scala dei Giganti in the
courtyard of the Ducal palace. These
formalities, although performed in the
presence of St. Mark’s clergy, were
essentially secular and it was only with
the actual Coronation Mass, celebrated
in the Basilica the next morning, that
the new Doge’s appointment was
solemnized.
The election of Marino Grimani
(1532–1605) was welcomed with
particular enthusiasm by revellers who
ripped up stalls in the Piazza to fuel
a huge bonfire. Grimani responded
to this popular support by rewarding
the populace with ample gifts of wine,
bread, and money.
The Cappella Marciana
In 1595 St. Mark’s maestro di cappella
was Baldassare Donato, a sound
administrator, if a somewhat insipid
composer, who had spent his entire
life in the Basilica’s service. Giovanni
Gabrieli served as one of the organists,
and composed much large-scale
festival music. The Cappella Marciana
comprised some 16 singers with an
instrumental ensemble of cornets,
5

sackbuts, and a few string players,
often greatly augmented by freelance
musicians. The Doge’s own piffari
e trombone and retinue of fanfaretrumpeters were also present at major
events, contemporary descriptions
mentioning up to 24 trumpeters and
drummers. In addition to the Basilica’s
two famed organs it was customary to
hire additional chamber organs. The
introit was usually sung by the Cappella
Marciana, but all other plainchant was
sung by a separate body of clerics.
There were at least seven areas
around the altar area from which
musicians performed, including the
two organ galleries and the pulpitum
magnum cantorum or bigonzo by the
screen. The division of forces into
two, three, or four spacially separated
vocal and instrumental “choirs” is one
of the most characteristic features of
Venetian sacred music. The musicians
almost certainly faced inwards towards
the altar and the Doge’s seat, the main
aim being to tickle the ears of the
dignitaries rather than fill the Basilica
with washes of sound. Much of the
music bears this out: even in the very
grandest polychoral pieces there
are still elements of chamber music
in the interplay between voices and
instruments.
The Music
It is difficult to date so much of the
Venetian repertoire, especially sacred
music which was often published in
large, retrospective, and sometimes
posthumous collections. There
is evidence that music remained
in repertoire some decades after
composition, stile antico polyphony
rubbing shoulders with motets and
concerti in a more up-to-date style.
6

The Kyrie, Gloria, and Sanctus are
performed in settings by Andrea
Gabrieli (c.1533–1585), Giovanni’s
uncle and a previous organist at the
Basilica. The four-choir Gloria may date
from the Mass of the Japanese Princes
in 1585, whilst the more expansive
settings of Kyrie–Christe–Kyrie and
Sanctus–Benedictus are a masterful
blend of poised polyphony and the rich
sonorities of three contrasted choirs.
The Communion motet O sacrum
convivium, probably the earliest work
included, is altogether more intimate,
at once restrained and ecstatic.
Giovanni Gabrieli’s compositions
also feature prominently, including a
brilliant setting of the collect for St.
Mark, Deus qui beatum Marcum, in
classic cori spezzati style. The festive
motet Omnes Gentes, one of the few
four-choir pieces written before the
new century, is included as a final
motet of praise. The text, from Psalm
46, refers in passing to the Ascension,
but as this Psalm occurs in the office
for all three major feasts of St. Mark,
Venetians may well have viewed this
work as suitable for any festival of
state rejoicing. Giovanni Gabrieli’s
canzonas and sonatas are a landmark
in instrumental music: extensive,
elaborately scored works of a wide
expressive range. The canzona à 12
is a wonderfully cheerful work for
three choirs of largely equal voices.
Sonata VI à 8 pian e forte is altogether
a more somber work, perfectly suited
to the role of an elevation sonata
after the consecration. Perhaps most
surprising of all is the canzona à 10,
predominantly for high instruments
in which the two highest parts have
solo sections consisting of the most
elaborately written virtuosic divisions,

prefiguring the later Venetian concerto.
There is no extant Venetian trumpet
music, but judging from concordances
between the few surviving sources
of early trumpet music the repertoire
seems to have been pan-European.
The fanfares are taken from a
contemporary tutor by the Italian
trumpeter Cesare Bendinelli. Organ
toccatas and intonations by both
Gabrielis punctuate the service at
various points. There are descriptions
of both St. Mark’s organs playing
together, but again no music survives.
Following the widespread 16th-century
practice of organ intabulation, Cesario
Gussago’s Sonata “La Leona” has been
transcribed for two organs. The chant
is taken from a number of Venetian
sources, including a 16th-century
Gradual from the Basilica’s treasury.
The Reconstruction
The sequence of music in this
performance takes the form of a
liturgical reconstruction, not only
incorporating the texts and ceremonial
procedures of the Venetian Rite, but
also reflecting the musico-liturgical
practices of the era. In northern Italy
it was customary to suppress certain
items of the liturgy in order to place
greater emphasis on extra-liturgical
music. Most often the official text was
said by the celebrant in secreto at the
High Altar. This practice was never
sanctioned by the official (Roman)
authorities, but in Venice, more than
anywhere else, it allowed music to
take an ever-increasing importance
in services — at St. Mark’s there was
even a rule allowing priests to be fined
if they interrupted the music!
Certain points in the Mass were
considered particularly suited to

musical elaboration with toccatas,
motets, sonatas, and canzonas,
especially the Gradual, Offertory,
Elevation, Agnus Dei, Communion,
Postcommunion, and Deo Gratias. It is
not yet clear how much of the official
text was spoken, sotto voce, under
such music, and in any case there
seems to have been considerable
flexibility in practice. In Venice, the
Agnus Dei was frequently omitted, and
it is quite possible that almost all the
chant items from the Preface onwards
were covered by the multiplicity of
musical substitutes. The Coronation
Mass was celebrated with its own
unusual and hybrid liturgy, that of a
Mass of the Holy Trinity with the collect
of the feast of St. Mark.
Venetian liturgical sources are always
complex, and research is constantly
developing. If some decisions regarding
minor aspects of the reconstruction
are conjectural, it is nonetheless based
on a thorough interpretation of all the
major Venetian sources. In any case
such details are relatively unimportant
— the reconstruction is of necessity
speculative in terms of the actual music
performed on that April morning over
400 years ago. More interesting is the
possibility of recreating something
greater than the sum of the individual
pieces, and to put all the music into
a richer, more colourful, and more
dramatic perspective. We may have lost
our ability to respond to religious and
civic ritual so beloved of renaissance
Venetians, but in reconstructing such
events we can perhaps rediscover
something of the artistic and spiritual
riches of this great city at the zenith of
her powers.

ille testimonium perhibeat de me.
Et vos testimonium perhibitis,

The Lord be with you.

Here begins the holy Gospel according to
John.
Glory be to thee O Lord.
And in that time, Jesus said to his disciples:
when the Comforter is come,
whom I will send unto you from the Father,
even the spirit of truth,
which proceedeth from the Father,
he shall testify of me.
And ye shall bear witness,
because ye have been with me from the
beginning.
These things have spoken unto you,
that ye should not be offended.
They shall put you out of the synagogues:
yea, the time cometh,
that whosoever killeth you
will think that he doeth God service.
And these things will they do unto you,
because they have not known the Father,
not me.
But these things have I told you,
that when the time shall come,
ye may remember that I told you of them.

ARTISTS
Paul McCreesh is the founder and artistic
director of the Gabrieli Consort & Players,
which he established in 1982 and with
whom he has toured worldwide and made
many award-winning recordings. Mr.
McCreesh is well-known for the energy
and passion that he brings to his musicmaking, and is especially enthusiastic
about working with young musicians and
broadening access to classical music;
he works regularly with youth orchestras
and choirs and is active in building new
educational initiatives whenever possible.
Mr. McCreesh has guest conducted
many of the major orchestras and
choirs across the globe, including most
recently the Leipzig Gewandhaus, Bergen
Philharmonic, Royal Northern Sinfonia,
Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony, Hong
Kong Philharmonic, Sydney Symphony,
Verbier Festival orchestras, and Berlin
Konzerthausorchester, whom he returns
to this season to conduct Berlioz's Grande
Messe des Morts. He also enjoys regular
and ongoing collaborations with Saint
Paul and Basel Chamber Orchestras,
and will conduct choral projects with
both orchestras in 2016–17, the latter at
Menuhin Festival Gstaad.
From 2013–16 he was principal
conductor and artistic adviser of the
Gulbenkian Orchestra (Lisbon), with whom
he conducted a wide range of music from
the classical period through to the 19th
and 20th century, focusing in particular on
symphonic repertoire, oratorio, and opera
in concert, working closely with the worldrenowned Gulbenkian Choir. In 2016–17, Mr.
McCreesh returns to the orchestra twice
to conduct Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius
and a program of Satie, Saint-Saëns, and
Beethoven featuring Gautier Capuçon.

Mr. McCreesh has established a strong
reputation in the opera house and has
conducted productions at the Teatro
Real Madrid, Royal Danish Opera, Opera
Comique, Vlaamse Opera, and at the
Verbier Festival. In 2015–16 he conducted
Britten’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream at
Bergen Opera, and returned to Vlaamse
Opera for a production of Idomeneo.
In 2011 Mr. McCreesh launched his own
record label, Winged Lion, in collaboration
with the Gabrieli Consort & Players,
Signum Classics, and the Wratislavia
Cantans Festival, where he was artistic
director between 2006 and 2012. They
have made seven recordings to date,
most recently of Handel’s L’Allegro, il
Penseroso ed il Moderato, released in
2015. Other highlights include Britten’s
War Requiem (BBC Music Magazine Award
2014), Mendelssohn’s Elijah (Diapason d’Or
Award 2013), Berlioz’s gargantuan Grande
Messe des Morts (BBC Award 2012), and a
reworking of his earlier Gabrieli disc, A New
Venetian Coronation 1595 (Gramophone
Award 2013). The Winged Lion recordings
build on his large catalogue of recordings
with Deutsche Grammophon, which
includes the Gramophone Award-winning
Haydn’s Creation.
Gabrieli are world-renowned interpreters
of great vocal and instrumental repertoire
spanning from the renaissance to the
present day. Formed as an early music
ensemble by Paul McCreesh in 1982,
Gabrieli has both outgrown and remained
true to its original identity. Over 30 years,
the ensemble’s repertoire has expanded
beyond any expectation, but McCreesh’s
ever-questioning spirit and expressive
musicianship, together with a healthy
degree of iconoclasm remain constant

features and continue to be reflected in
the ensemble’s dynamic performances.
Their repertoire includes major works of
the oratorio tradition, virtuosic a cappella
programs of music from many centuries,
and mold-breaking reconstructions of
music for historical events.
Today, at the heart of Gabrieli’s activities
is the development of a pioneering
education initiative in Gabrieli Roar. This
ambitious partnership with leading UK
youth choirs has enabled Gabrieli to work
extensively with teenagers from across the
UK in intensive training programs focused
on recording major works of the oratorio
repertoire and performances for such
prestigious promoters as the BBC Proms.
Gabrieli aims to create inspirational and
thought-provoking performances that
stand out from the crowd. It has long been
renowned for its many award-winning
recordings created during a 15-year

association with Deutsche Grammophon.
In 2010, Paul McCreesh established his
own record label, Winged Lion, which
in its first year alone released four
extremely diverse recordings, underlining
Gabrieli’s versatility and the breadth of
Paul McCreesh’s vision. The focal point
of the Winged Lion catalogue is the
series of spectacular large-scale oratorio
recordings made in conjunction with the
Wroclaw Philharmonic Choir with the kind
support of the National Forum of Music,
Wroclaw: Berlioz’s Grande Messe des
Morts, Mendelssohn’s Elijah, and Britten’s
War Requiem. The next recording in this
series will be a large-scale version of
Haydn’s The Seasons, recorded in June
2016 in Wroclaw’s impressive new concert
hall. The most recent release on Winged
Lion is Handel’s L’Allegro, il Penseroso ed il
Moderato, Gabrieli’s first Handel recording
in over a decade.

UMS ARCHIVES
This evening’s concert marks the fourth UMS performances by Gabrieli and
Paul McCreesh, following their UMS debuts in October 1997 at St. Francis of Assisi
Catholic Church. Gabrieli and Mr. McCreesh most recently appeared at UMS in April
2003 in a performance of Bach’s St. John Passion at the Michigan Theater.
