  • The Saint Hugh Singers was formed in 1979 by Gerald Burton and Robin Rees.
    The choir, comprising singers from throughout the UK, sang services on one or two weekends each year in more than 30 cathedrals, abbeys and collegiate chapels until its final meeting in 2014.
    The group is named after St Hugh of Lincoln, many of the members having previously sung on the annual summer course of the Royal School of Church Music at Lincoln Cathedral.
    David Swinson was Head Chorister at Magdalen College, Oxford, before studying piano and organ at The Royal College of Music and then Music as Organ Scholar at Jesus College, Cambridge. Musical distinctions during this period included five RCM prizes, a scholarship from the Countess of Munster Musical Trust, and his Fellowship of the Royal College of Organists.
    Since graduation David has enjoyed a busy career as a teacher, conductor and organist. As an organist, he has given recitals throughout Europe and in the USA, and as a conductor he has worked with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, the Bournemouth Sinfonietta and the London Mozart Players. David has been Director of Music at Trinity School, Croydon, and Director of Trinity Boys Choir since 2001.

    Who is this with garments gory,
    triumphing from Bozrah's way;
    this that weareth robes of glory,
    bright with more than victory's ray?
    Who is this unwearied comer
    from his journey's sultry length,
    traveling through Idumé's summer
    in the greatness of his strength?
    Wherefore red in thine apparel
    like the conquerors of earth,
    and arrayed like those who carol
    o'er the reeking vineyard's mirth?
    Who art thou, the valleys seeking
    where our peaceful harvests wave?
    "I, in righteous anger speaking,
    I, the mighty One to save;
    "I, that of the raging heathen
    trod the winepress all alone,
    now in victor-garlands wreathen
    coming to redeem mine own:
    I am he with sprinkled raiment,
    glorious for my vengeance-hour,
    ransoming, with priceless payment,
    and delivering with power."
    Hail! All hail! Thou Lord of Glory!
    Thee, our Father, thee we own;
    Abram heard not of our story,
    Israel ne'er our name hath known.
    But, Redeemer, thou hast sought us,
    thou hast heard thy children's wail,
    thou with thy dear Blood hast bought us:
    Hail! Thou mighty Victor, hail!

    My great-grandfather was a military chaplain in World War One. I am researching his life - he wrote an article in Welsh, published in Y Tyst in 1916, describing being awoken in the middle of the night to the sound of singing of a hymn, and he quoted a few lines from the hymn - "Cyfaill yw yn afon angau : Ddeil fy m'len i uwch y don, Golwg arno wna i mi ganu,
    Yn yr afon ddofon hon." I googled these lines, and came up with a hymn called "Ton-y-Botel", then googled Ton-y-Botel and found this video. Is this the same hymn that he was quoting? I think they are singing in English? The Google Translate version of those Welsh lines are: "A friend is the river of death: Let my curtain be above the wave; The sight of him makes me sing, In this deep river"

    I have known this melody as the hymn "Once to every man and nation" since I was singing the children's choir in fourth grade. I'm 76 now, and will be playing it in our little UCC church Sunday, with the slightly altered words: "To Us All, to Every Nation." Beautiful singing and organ here!

    The hymn is actually New English Hymnal 108, 'Who is this with garments gory...'

      I believe it is a George Thalben Ball harmonization.

      Sorry for delay in responding to this I've only just seen it!. Please contact the organist directly - it's his copyright version made up on the day.
