The French composer Louis Bourgeois lived from c.1510 to 1560. Bourgeois was cantor in Geneva and, commissioned by John Calvin, he composed melodies for metrical (rhyming) versions of the psalms. After completing about a hundred one-part psalms, he made some four-part arrangements, which were denounced and even resulted in his imprisonment for a day. Later, Bourgeois published a number of psalm collections, and judging from his book Le droict chemin de musique he was also an excellent educator. The melodies Bourgeois composed, are (contrary to Gregorian chants) particularly suitable for community singing. This applies to his hymn tune Saint Michael, which is why this melody hasbeen used for various texts, written for many occasions. John Blanken made this arrangement for a wedding ceremony: an occasion in which faith and trust play a large - if not the largest - role. Hence the title Hymn of Faith. The arrangement contains four verses of the hymn. After a majestic opening the hymn follows twice, the second verse being embellished in the tenor register. After a short interlude verse three follows, played by a quartet. The majestic opening is then repeated as a modulation into the fourth verse, which concludes the work in a brilliant tutti. Der Komponist, Kantor und Pädagoge Louis Bourgeois lebte im 16. Jahrhundert in Genf und komponierte Psalm- und Kirchenliedmelodien, die sich besonders gut für den Gemeindegesang eigneten. Die vorliegende Bearbeitung einer seiner Melodien schrieb John Blanken für eine Hochzeitszeremonie - ein Anlass, bei dem Glaube und Vertrauen eine groÃ?e Rolle spielen: Daher der Titel Hymn of Faith. Ein wunderbares Stück ernsteâ?? Musik, das zu vielen Gelegenheiten passt.

De melodieën van de France componist Louis Bourgeois (ca. 1510-1560) zijn heel geschikt voor volkszang - zo ook de hymne ST Michael. Niet voor niets is deze melodie gebruikt voor vele liedteksten voor uiteenlopende gelegenheden. JohnBlanken maakte dit arrangement voor een trouwdienst, een gelegenheid waarbij vertrouwen een grote rol speelt, vandaar de titelHymn of Faith. Het arrangement herbergt vier vrezen. Na een majestueuze opening volgt de hymnetwee keer, waarbij het tweede vers wordt omgespeeld in het tenorregister. Na een kort tussenspel volgt vers drie in een zetting voor kwartet. De opening wordt herhaald als modulatie naar het vierde vers, waarmee het werk in eenstralend tutti afsluit.Der Komponist, Kantor und Pädagoge Louis Bourgeois lebte im 16.
