Anthem (Richard Nicolson )
When Jesus sat' at meat in the Pharisee's house, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner: Mary called Magdalene. She brought an alabaster box of ointment, and stood behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears and wiped them with the hairs of her head. And kissed his feet and anointed them with the ointment. Jesus turned to the woman, and said: Thy sins are forgiven; thy faith hath saved thee, go thy way in peace.

Fantasy in C, Op. 15
(The Wanderer) played by Maurice Cole (piano)
On three occasions, Schubert took one of his own songs as an inspiration for a large-scale masterpiece, producing the ' Death and the Maiden ' Quartet, the ' Trout ' Quintet, and the ' Wanderer ' Fantasy for piano, which was written in 1822, six years after the song from which it takes its name. In the ' Wanderer ' Fantasy, the rhythm of the opening phrase of the song dominates each of the four hnked sections of the work. It appears as the first section's fiery opening and again as its lyrical second theme; the slow second section is a set of free variations on the whole song-theme; the rhythm alone appears in the Scherzo section (translated into 3-4) and again in the main theme of the finale. The whole work, in fact, seems to grow out of one basic mot:f, anticipating the form of Liszt's symphonic poems.
