Jubal is cited in Genesis, Chapter 4, verse 21 as the father of all such as handle the harp and the organ. In classical mythology he is said to have invented the lyre by having attached strings to a tortoise shell from which he made music and thereby astonishing his companions. In Greek mythology Orpheus, by some reports the son of Apollo and the muse Calliope, is reputed to have charmed wild animals and even caused trees to move by the power of his playing on the lyre. Saint Cecilia, Roman virgin and martyr, is patroness of musicians. She is often depicted as singing while accompanying herself on an organ. Her feast day is 22 November. Instrumental Parts packet includes: Horn in F 1 and 2 and Contrabass. Organist plays from the full score.
