now.

BOC Limited cannot claim such a pedigree in Guildford,
but is an equally well-established institution, having

celebrated its centenary in 1986.

CIVIC CONCERT

The Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra welcomes the Mayor
and the members of Guildford Borough Council to its annual
Civic Concert, recognising at this concert the work of the
Council without whose consistent support and enlightened
attitude it would not have been possible to achieve the
orchestra’s present national standing or maintain the quality
and variety of concerts which remain an example to concert
promoters throughout the country.

TONIGHT’S CONCERT WILL BE PERFORMED WITH
NO INTERVAL.

Guildford

Associate Leaders:

In 1886 the company had one product, oxygen, which had
only two applications: as a medical gas and to produce
limelight for theatres.

Since that time, research and investment have continuously expanded the range of gases on offer and the
applications for which they can be used.

Today, BOC Limited is part of The BOC Group, a public
company with an annual turnover of about £2.8 billion and
which contributes to the economies of some fifty countries
throughout the world.

As the major UK operating company of The Group, BOC
Limited produces and distributes a wide range of industrial, medical and special gases.

Most people on hearing the name BOC think of cylinders
holding oxygen and acetylene for use in welding or cutting
processes.

The range of industrial gases is much wider than this
though and many of BOC’s products are not supplied in
cylinders at all, but are delivered in liquid form or direct to
the customer by pipeline from a BOC production plant.
Currently, the fastest growing sector of the industrial gases
market is the supply of liquid nitrogen to the food and
brewing industries.

HUGH BEAN, JOHN LUDLOW

Much of the frozen food which you buy in supermarkets
today has been frozen with liquid nitrogen, and nitrogen,
together with a variety of gas mixtures produced by BOC
Special Gases, is also used in the packaging of foods.

CHRISTINE TEARE, Soprano
PATRICIA BARDON, Alto

BOC is active in the emerging electronics industries as
well, supplying the makers of semiconductors and compact
discs with a range of ultra high purity gases needed to make

these products.

PHILHARMONIC CHOIR
SIR CHARLES GROVES, Conductor

The company maintains its original links with medical
practice. It supplies medical gases such as oxygen, nitrousoxide and Entonox (a pain relieving mixture) to the NHS
and is a major player in the market for domiciliary oxygen.
Finally the company has also been involved in distribution
services for some twenty years.

BOC Transhield has, since the early 1970s, supplied much
of the fresh and ambient food for Marks and Spencer, and
a relatively new part of the company, Storeshield, now
delivers textiles and other general merchandise for Marks
and Spencer.

That, in outline, is BOC Limited. A company with a
distinguished past and an exciting future.
For just over four years, the headquarters of BOC Gases
have been on The Surrey Research Park here in Guildford,
with Transhield and Storeshield in Aldershot. As a relative
newcomer to the area, BOC is keen to build a fruitful
relationship with the local community and hopes that the
opportunity provided by this concert has given you a
clearer idea of BOC’s role.

Another major company in The BOC Group, also located
on The Surrey Research Park, is BOC Cryoplants Limited,
which designs and manufactures cryogenic process equipment. Its presence on the Research Park has further
strengthened BOC’s commitment to Guildford.

Through the sinful Mary shriven,
Through the dying thief forgiven,
Thou to me a hope hast given.

Worthless are my prayers and sighing:
Yet, good Lord, in grace complying;:
Rescue me from fires undying.

From the goats afar divide me,
To Thy right hand do Thou guide me.

See, like ashes, my contrition:
Help me in my last condition.

Ah! that day of tears and mourning,
From the dust of earth returning,

Grant them Thine eternal rest.

Amen.

Domine Jesu (Offertorium)

Domine Jesu Christe, Rex gloriae

absorbeat eas tartarus, ne cadant

promisisti et semini ejus.

Spare, O God, Thy suppliant groaning.

Doomed to flames of woe unbounded:
Call me, with Thy Saints surrounded.

Man for judgement must prepare him.
Spare, O God, in mercy spare him.

Amen.

O Lord Jesus Christ, King of glory,
deliver the souls of all the faithful
departed from the pains of hell and
from the deep pit: deliver them from
the jaws of the lion, lest they fall
into the darkness and the black gulf
swallow them up. But let Thy

standardbearer, blessed Michael, bring
them into that holy light, which of old
thou didst promise to Abraham and his seed.

Hostias et preces tibi, Domine,
laudis offerimus Tu suscipe pro
animabus illis quarum hodie
memoriam facimus: fac eas, Domine,
de morte transire ad vitam quam olim
Abrahae promisisti et semini ejus.

We offer unto Thee, O Lord, this
sacrifice of prayer and praise; do Thou
receive it on behalf of the souls of
those whose memory we this day
recall: make them, O Lord, to pass
from death unto life which of old Thou
didst promise to Abraham and his seed.

Libera animas omnium fidelium
defunctorum de poenis inferni,
fac eas, de morte transire ad vitam.

Deliver the souls of all the faithful
departed from the pains of hell; make
them to pass from death unto life.
