for SATB, congregation, and organ In this version of the popular English hymn, Rutter adorns the well-known melody with an opening fanfare and soaring descant line over the final verse. It is intended that the congregation join in the singing. Full scores and sets of parts for the brass ensemble accompaniment are available on hire from Oxford University Press.

for SA and harp or piano This arrangement of the hymn tune Royal Oak is not to be confused with Rutter's famous original composition of the same title, which also sets the beloved text by C.F. Alexander. The elegant text praising God's creation, combined with Rutter's skilful handling of the hymn tune, makes this piece ideally suited for any religious service.

for SA and harp or piano This gentle arrangement of the well-known Gaelic folk tune Morning Has Broken, also known as the hymn tune Bunessan, is part of a collection of six hymn arrangements for choir with harp or piano. The entire series of hymn arrangements has been recorded by the Cambridge Singers, directed by John Rutter, on the Collegium CD Sing, ye heavens (COLCD 126), and individual leaflets from the series, as well as a harp part for all six, are available on sale from Oxford University Press.

for SATB (with divisions) and harp or piano This is a simple and gentle setting of the popular American folk hymn. Beginning softly with the sopranos accompanied by piano/harp in the first verse, Rutter explores a wide variety of textures, building to a powerful final verse before ebbing away in a poignantly quiet close.

for SATB and harp or piano In this arrangement of the traditional Irish hymn Be thou my vision, Rutter sets the 8th-century text (in its English translation) to the Irish folk melody known as Slane, the tune to which it has been sung since 1919. Rutter's harmonies and piano/harp accompaniment add to the enchanting Gaelic style. An alternative setting of the same text, to original music by John Rutter, is also available from Oxford University Press.

for SATB and piano or harp The King of Love My Shepherd Is sets Psalm 23 to an arrangement of the Irish traditional melody St. Columba. Rutter keeps the first three verses largely in unison, alternating between male and female voices, before allowing the music to bloom into rich and ever-expanding polyphony for the last three verses. The arpeggios in the accompaniment, distinctly Gaelic and gently scored, can be performed either on harp or piano.

for SATB, congregation, and organ or brass choir Rutters arrangement of the hymn O God, Our Help in Ages Past uses the hymn tune St. Anne to great effect. The verses alternate between choir alone and choir with congregation, building to an uplifting finale in which all sing together. Brass choir score and parts are available on sale.

for SATB (with divisions) and organ, with optional congregation Here John Rutter follows Vaughan Williams' precedent in setting this text from the fourth-century Orthodox liturgy of St James of Jerusalem to the French carol melody 'Jesus Christ shabille en pauvre'. The result is a hymn which is in turn haunting and powerful, with a modal tonality that evokes the timeless sound-world of plainchant.

for SATB (with divisions), congregation, and organ An arrangement by John Rutter of the popular Passiontide hymn When I survey the wondrous cross, set to the hymn tune Rockingham, with which these words have long been associated. Part of the Cambridge Singers Hymn series, it features on the Collegium recording Sing, ye Heavens (COLCD126), performed by the Cambridge Singers and directed by John Rutter.

for SATB and organ In this arrangement of the hymn tune St Clement, traditional verses alternate with those newly arranged by John Rutter. The piece is part of a wider collection of hymn arrangements, which have been recorded by the Cambridge Singers, directed by John Rutter, on the Collegium CD Sing, ye heavens (COLCD 126). Individual leaflets from the series are available on sale from Oxford University Press.

for SATB, optional congregation, and organ or brass choir Christ the Lord Is Risen Today is an arrangement of the Easter hymn tune 'Lyra Davidica'. Not to be confused with Rutter's own composition, Christ the Lord is risen again, published as part of the John Rutter Anniversary Edition. With an exciting introductory fanfare composed by Rutter, this uplifting anthem provides a powerful ending to any Easter service. Brass choir score and parts are available on sale.

for SATB, organ, and second organ or piano or harp Taken from Rutter's edition of Faure's Requiem, this angelic and widely beloved Sanctus features both the original French words and an optional English text, translated and adapted for singing by John Rutter himself. Although ideal for funerals and All Souls Day services due to it being composed as part of the Requiem, the more general message of praise in the Sanctus makes it equally suitable for a range of other worship services. Its second keyboard part may be performed on an additional organ, piano, or harp. John Rutter's complete edition of Faure's Requiem (1893 version) is available from Oxford University Press.
