Jacob Van Vleck (1751-1831) was born to a Dutch family in New York. He was educated in Nazareth and went to Germany for theological training at Barby. He returned to America in 1778 to serve as assistant pastor in Bethlehem and from 1790-1800 was inspector of the girls' school there. He then served in Nazareth, Lititz, and Salem, where he succeeded Bishop Herbst in 1812. He himself was consecrated a bishop in 1815. Van Vleck was a fine performer on the violin and keyboard instruments, and his keyboard style was complimented by the Marquis de Chastellux, a French aide to General Washington during the Revolution. Van Vleck also contributed to the development of the Collegium musicum in Bethlehem. His few compositions evidence considerable talent, though his church duties seem to have left little time for music in his later years. He died in Bethlehem in 1831 at the age of eighty.
I Sing for Joy in the Lord was edited from a manuscript in Johannes Herbst's Lieder zum Singen am Klavier in the Herbst Collection. The string parts were arranged by Nola Reed Knouse for this Festival. The text is from Isaiah 61:10.
This anthem is published in honor of Carol Southerland, for her many years of dedication to music through Home Moravian Church, the Moramus Chorale, and the Moravian Music Foundation and Festivals.

After his education at Bridgton Training College at Oudtshoorn and Hewat Training College in Cape Town, he has taught at many Moravian schools before retiring in 1993. He served as organist and choirmaster at Maitland, Wittewater and Steenberg, and for the past 32 years has served the congregation at Grassy Park as organist and music director, founding a Youth Brass Band there. He has arranged many works for children’s choirs, and is the founder of the Moravian Choir Union of South Africa. His hymn tune (tune 184d) and this anthem, Come, Let Us Sing, were composed for the festival of the 250th anniversary of Moravian missions. His anthem I Want to Praise the Lord was sung at the festival commemorating the 550th anniversary of the Moravian Unity in 2007.
The publication of this anthem is sponsored in honor of Sisters Phyllis Ronald and Joyce Sainato, in loving appreciation for their many years of dedicated service to the music program at Sharon Moravian Church in Tuscarawas, Ohio.

Sing, O Ye Heavens

Johann Christian Bechler (1784-1857) was born on the Baltic island of Oesel (modern Saaremaa), where his father was a Moravian minister. He was educated at Moravian schools in Niesky and Barby, Germany. Throughout his schooling, music was his favorite subject. At the completion of his studies he taught organ at Barby and in 1806 accepted a call to America, where he became one of the first professors at Moravian Theological Seminary. His interest in music continued, and he composed many choral and liturgical pieces. He served as minister to the Moravian congregations of Philadelphia, Staten Island, Lititz, Pennsylvania, and Salem, North Carolina. In 1836, shortly after his consecration as bishop, he went to serve the congregation in Sarepta, Russia. In 1849 he retired to Herrnhut, the center of the Moravian Church in Germany, and died there on April 18, 1857.
O the Blessedness Is Great was edited from manuscript copies from the music collections from Salem, NC, and Bethlehem, Nazareth, and Lititz, PA. This arrangement, in a lower key and in three parts, was made by Nola Reed Knouse from the edition. The original, for SSAB choir in F major, is also published in the Moravian Star Anthem Series. 
The publication of this anthem is sponsored by the three Door County Moravian Choirs in their 6th annual Moravian Music concert, held on June 25, 2017 (Sister Bay, Sturgeon Bay and Ephraim, Wisconsin).
