André Grétry

1741 - 1813 Person Name: André Grétry, 1741-1813 Scripture: Luke 24:30-32 Composer of "LANDÅS" in Community of Christ Sings Andre Ernest Modeste Gretry Belgium/France 1741-1813. Born at Liege, Belgium, his father was a poor musician. He was a choirboy at the Church of St. Denis in Liege. He studied under Jean-pantaleon Leclerc and later organist Nicolas Rennekin for keyboard and composition. He then studied under music master, Henri Moreau, at the collegiate church of St. Paul. He attended Italian opera performances by various masters and became interested in furthering his studies in Italy. He was financed to attend the College of Liege in Rome for five years, studying under Giovanni Battista Casali. He married painter, Jeanne-Marie Grandon. He began writing operas, devoting himself to French comic opera. In 1767 he left Rome and went to Geneva, Switzerland, where he met Voltaire, and produced another operetta, then went to Paris. He was not well known, and befriended the Swedish ambassador, Gustaf Creutz, from which he attained a libretto, “Le Huron”, and set it to music in just a short time. Its performance was successful. He soon composed two more comic operas, establishing his eminence in that area. He became a French citizen. He composed some 50 operas, his best in 1771 and 1784. He was the first to include the tuba curva instrument in his operas, which gave them a distinct personality. He also used mandolins in his works. During the French Revolution he lost much of his property, but successive governments in France vied in his favor and he received rewards for his works. He was appointed Inspector of the Conservatoire, and Napoleon granted him the cross of the “Legion of Honor” and a pension. He also taught opera composition to students, including his two dauthers, Lucile and Caroline. He died at the Hermitage in Montmorency and was buried in Paris. A statue commemorating him was commissioned in 1804 by Hippolyte, comte de Livry, and placed in the Opera Comique in 1809, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. John Perry

Joseph Gelineau

1920 - 2008 Scripture: Luke 24:29 Translator (into French) of "Stay with Us, Savior" in Sing and Rejoice! Joseph Gelineau (1920-2008) Gelineau's translation and musical settings of the psalms have achieved nearly universal usage in the Christian church of the Western world. These psalms faithfully recapture the Hebrew poetic structure and images. To accommodate this structure his psalm tones were designed to express the asymmetrical three-line/four-line design of the psalm texts. He collaborated with R. Tournay and R. Schwab and reworked the Jerusalem Bible Psalter. Their joint effort produced the Psautier de la Bible de Jerusalem and recording Psaumes, which won the Gran Prix de L' Academie Charles Cros in 1953. The musical settings followed four years later. Shortly after, the Gregorian Institute of America published Twenty-four Psalms and Canticles, which was the premier issue of his psalms in the United States. Certainly, his text and his settings have provided a feasible and beautiful solution to the singing of the psalms that the 1963 reforms envisioned. Parishes, their cantors, and choirs were well-equipped to sing the psalms when they embarked on the Gelineau psalmody. Gelineau was active in liturgical development from the very time of his ordination in 1951. He taught at the Institut Catholique de Paris and was active in several movements leading toward Vatican II. His influence in the United States as well in Europe (he was one of the founding organizers of Universa Laus, the international church music association) is as far reaching as it is broad. Proof of that is the number of times "My shepherd is the Lord" has been reprinted and reprinted in numerous funeral worship leaflets, collections, and hymnals. His prolific career includes hundreds of compositions ranging from litanies to responsories. His setting of Psalm 106/107, "The Love of the Lord," for assembly, organ, and orchestra premiéred at the 1989 National Association of Pastoral Musicians convention in Long Beach, California. --www.giamusic.com
