IBRADITION
A proud tradition gained over many years is a
valuable asset for an Orchestra or an Industrial
Company.
Yet in the eyes (and ears) of our respective
audiences, it is no substitute for present day
performance.
BOC Gases and the Guildford Philharmonic
Orchestra have traditions spanning 108 years
and 50 years respectively.
May the way we both perform - today and for
many years to come - continue to attract and
satisfy those audiences whom it is our privilege
to serve.

the latter is part of a complete cycle which he has
recorded with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic
Orchestra. The review of the recording in Hi-Fi News
stated that ‘his tempi are somehow always the right
tempi — unhurried, free-flowing, possessed of an
expressive ease which comes only from long and

good honest musical instinct).” Other recent recordings

PROGRAMME
THE APOSTLES
Elgar 1857 — 1934
Six soloists, a gigantic orchestra, great length and
demanding chorus parts have all contributed to a
neglect of what is in several ways the biggest and most
original of Elgar’s oratorios. The Dream of Gerontius
has
the most superficial attractions, The Kingdom
demands the most involvement on the part of the
audience, The Apostles deals more with the spirits of
Christ’s teaching and such abstracts as fellowship,
comfort, the message of the Beatitudes and the mystery
of the ascension. Perhaps, however, modern audiences
are ready at last to reconsider this work and enter into it
more fully. The recent kindling of interest in The
Kingdom is a pointer that this may be so, yet it is as
well to remember that The Apostles is a more subtle
work. The orchestral preludes to the two parts are based
on themes which symbolise the “Spirit of the Lord,”
“Christ, the Man of Sorrows” and “the Church,” the
prelude to the second part being much shorter, and of a
with conductors including
most intense solemnity. However, listeners who know
one or both of the other two great oratorios will quickly

GUILDFORD PHILHARMONIC CHOIR
Vernon Handley (President)
Jeremy Backhouse (Chorus Director)
Jeremy Filsell (Accompanist)
The Guildford Philharmonic Choir was formed by
Guildford Borough in order to perform the major
choral repertoire with the Guildford Philharmonic
Orchestra. As well as performing well-known choral
works, the choir specializes in twentieth century
British music and this has led to recordings of Gerald
Finzi’s Intimations of Immortality with the Guildford
Philharmonic and Patrick Hadley’s The Trees So High
with the Philharmonia Orchestra, both recordings
being conducted by Vernon Handley.
The Choir is conducted by some of the most eminent
musicians, and as well as giving frequent concerts in
Guildford, the Choir occasionally visits other British
cities. In 1988 the Guildford Philharmonic Choir
visited Paris, in 1990 joined forces with the Freiburger
realise that Elgar has used themes here, common to all
yet never suggests a mere reworking of
material. The plan of the work, from the “Calling of the
Apostles’ through “The Beatitudes,” “The Walking on
the Waters” to “The Betrayal” and “Ascension” is clear.
Elgar allows himself the luxury of setting the scene for
the “Calling of the Apostles” and a choral hymn-like
summing up of the first part in the chorus, “Turn you to
the Stronghold.” The shattering of the certainty of the
first part by “The Betrayal” is wonderfully brought
about by the composer, for he shortens not only the
prelude to the second part, but the course of events
leading to the crucifixion. And yet, we seem to have
lived through the years of these events in such a way
that when the watchers on the temple roof sing again
their phrase heralding the dawn, it seems that we heard
if first ages ago. Elgar moves his events along not only
by the use of his array of soloists, but by a
fragmentation of the choral parts, thus making a more
intellectual demand on his chorus than in Gerontius and
The Kingdom.
The final elaborate ensemble
quietly exalted as anything in his music.

for Thou hast made a way in the sea,
and a safe path in the waves:
shewing that Thou canst save from all danger.
Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
Thou hast not forsaken them that seek Thee.
My soul followeth hard after Thee:
Thy right hand upholdeth me.

The mirth of tabrets ceaseth;
the noise of them that rejoice endeth,—
our dance is turned into mourning.
“This shall ye have of Mine hand; ye shall lie down in
sorrow.”
IN CESAREA PHILIPPI
RECIT. (TENOR)
When Jesus came into the parts of Casarea Philippi,
He asked His disciples, saying:
Jesus
(There arose a great tempest in the sea.)
Whom do men say that I, the Son of man, am?
The Apostles
Mary Magdalene
Is Thy wrath against the sea?
The voice of Thy thunder is in the heavens!
Some say John the Baptist; some Elias; and others,
Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
Deep calleth into deep at the noise of Thy cataracts.
I see a ship in the midst of the sea, distressed with
Jesus
But whom say ye that I am?
waves: and One cometh unto it, walking on the sea!
... and they that are in the ship, toiling in rowing,
Peter
Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
are troubled and cry out for fear.
The Apostles (in the ship)
hath not revealed it unto thee, but My Father Which
It is a spirit!
Jesus
Be of good cheer; It is I, be not afraid.
Peter
Lord, if it be Thou, bid me come unto Thee upon the
waters.
Jesus
Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: for flesh and blood
is in heaven.
Thou art Peter,—
and upon this rock I will build My church; and the
gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
SoL1 AND CHORUS
Proclaim unto them that dwell on the earth, and unto
’
every nation, and kindred, and tongue,
the everlasting Gospel.
For He will forgive their iniquity, and He will
remember their sin no more.
Jesus
END OF PART 1.
And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of
heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth
shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt
loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
SHORT INTERVAL
IN CAPERNAUM
Mary Magdalene
Thy face, Lord, will I seek;
my soul followeth hard after Thee;
help me, desolate woman.
PART 11
IV. - THE BETRAYAL
INTRODUCTION — (ORCHESTRA)
Mary
Hearken, O daughter:—
When thou art’in tribulation,
if thou turn to the Lord thy God,
and shall be obedient unto His voice,
He will not forsake thee.
Hearken, O daughter;—
Come thou, for there is peace to thee.
RECIT. (TENOR)
She stood at His feet weeping, and began to wash His
feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of
her head, and kissed His feet, and anointed them
with the ointment.
CHORUS (WOMEN)
This man, if he were a prophet. would have known
who and what manner of woman this is that
toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
Mary Magdalene
Hide not Thy face from me:
put not Thy servant away in anger.
Jesus
Thy sins are forgiven;
RECIT. (TENOR)
And it came to pass that He went throughout every
city and village preaching and shewing the glad
tidings of the kingdom of God: and the Twelve were
with Him;
And He began to teach them, that the Son of man
must suffer many things, and be rejected, and be
killed.
CHORUS
“I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock
-shall be scattered abroad.”
Peter
Be it far from Thee, Lord, this shall never be unto
Thee.
Though all men shall be offended because of Thee, yet
will I never be offended.
The Apostles
Though we should die with Thee, yet will we not deny
Thee.
CHORAL RECIT. (TENORS AND BASES)
Then gathered the chief Priests and Pharisees a
council, and said:—
thy faith hath saved thee;-
“What do we?
Go in peace.
For this Man doeth many miracles.”
So from that day forth they took counsel that they
SOLI AND CHORUS
Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope.
To the Lord our God belong mercies and
might put Him to death.
Then entered Satan into Judas, and he went his way,
and communed with the chief Priests and Captains.
forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against
Him;
Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope.
The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, making
peace and perfect health to flourish;
both which are the gifts of God:
and it enlargeth their rejoicing that love Him.
Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope.
Judas
What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver Him
unto you?
CHORUS (TENORS AND BASSES)
And they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver.
Judas then, having received a band of men and
officers, cometh with lanterns and torches and
weapons.
Thou art a God of the afflicted,
Thou art an helper of the oppressed,
Thou art an upholder of the weak,
Thou art a protector of the forlorn,
A Saviour of them that are without hope.
Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope.
Blessed is he who is not fallen from his hope in the
Lord.
Judas
Let Him make speed, and hasten His work, that we
may see it; He shall bear the glory, and shall sit and
rule upon His throne, the great King, — the Lord of
the whole earth.)
Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is He hold Him
fast.
Judas
IN GETHSEMANE
Judas
My punishment is greater than I can bear.
Hail, Master!
The Singers
Jesus
Whom seek ye?
The People
How long shall they utter and speak hard things?
and all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
They break in pieces Thy people, O Lord, and afflict
Thine heritage.
Jesus of Nazareth.
Jesus
Judas
Mine iniquity is greater than can be forgiven.
I am He:
if therefore ye seek Me,
let these go their way.
The Priests
A voice of trembling, — of fear,
Why art thou so grieved in thy mind?
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
And they all forsook Him and fled;
but Peter followed Him afar off, to see the end.
Judas
I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent
blood.
CHORAL RECIT. (TENORS AND BASSES)
And they that had laid hands on Jesus, led Him away
to the High Priest.
The Priests
SELAH!
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
IN THE PALACE OF THE HIGH PRIEST
Servants
Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth;
this man was also with Him.
Peter
I know not what thou sayest.
Servants
Art not thou also one of His disciples?
Peter
As thy soul liveth, I am not.
Servants
Did not we see thee in the garden with Him?
Surely thou also art one of them.
Peter
I swear by the Lord, I know not this Man of Whom ye
And he cast down the pieces of silver and departed.
The Singers
Lord, how long shall the wicked triumph?
Yet they say, The Lord shall not see;
He that planted the ear, shall He not hear?
He that formed the eye, shall He not see?
Judas (without the Temple)
Whither shall I go from Thy Spirit?
Or whither shall I flee from Thy presence?
If I say, Peradventure the darkness shall cover me,
then shall my night be turned to day;—
yea, the darkness is no darkness with Thee, but the
night is as clear as the day.
Sheol is naked before Thee,
and Abaddon hath no covering.
Whither shall I go from Thy Spirit?
The Singers (within the Temple)
speak.
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
Then led they Jesus unto the hall of judgment.
CHORUS (SOPRANOS AND CONTRALTOS)
And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter, and he
went out, and wept bitterly.
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
Then Judas, which had betrayed Him, when he saw
that He was condemned, repented himself, and
brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief
Priests and Elders.
THE TEMPLE
The Singers (within the Temple)
O Lord God, to Whom vengeance belongeth, lift up
Thyself, Thou Judge of the earth.
O Lord God, to Whom vengeance belongeth, render a
reward to the proud.
Lord, how long shall the wicked,
how long shall the wicked triumph?
Blessed is the man whom Thou chastenest, that Thou
mayest give him rest from the days of adversity,—
Judas
“Rest from the days of adversity,”—
Never man spake like this man;
He satisfied the longing soul,
and filled the hungry soul with goodness.
The Singers
—until the pit be digged for the wicked.
Judas
Our life is short and tedious, and in the death of a man
there is no remedy; neither was there any man
known to have returned from the grave.
For we are born at all adventure, and we shall be
hereafter as though we had never been; for the
breath in our nostrils is as smoke, and a little spark
in the moving of our heart,
which being extinguished, our body shall be turned
into ashes, and our spirit shall vanish as the soft air.
and our name shall be forgotten in time, and no man
have our work in remembrance; and our life shall

Mary
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
And when He had spoken these things — while
He blessed them — He was taken up; and a cloud
received Him out of their sight; and they looked
stedfastly toward heaven.
The sword hath pierced through mine own sould.
Mary and John
Thou hast trodden the winepress alone,
and of Thy people there was none with Thee.
They shall look upon Him Whom they have pierced,
and they shall mourn for Him,
as one mourneth for his only son,
And shall be in bitterness for Him,
as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
The Apostles
Give us one heart, and one way:
in Thy light shall we see light;
Thou wilt shew us the path of life.

VI. — AT THE SEPULCHRE
RECIT. (CONTRALTO)
And very early in the morning they came unto the
sepulchre at the rising of the sun; and they entered
in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
The Watchers (on the Temple roof)
The face of all the East is now ablaze with light;
the Dawn reacheth even unto Hebron!
CHORUS (Angels) (SOPRANOS AND CONTRALTOS)
Mary
My soul doth magnify the Lord:
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Mary Magdalene
Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon Thee:
Thou saidst, Fear not.

the afflicted;
neither hath He hid His face from him;
