Will Todd, né en 1970, est de forger une solide réputation pour lui-même comme un compositeur qui est tout aussi à l'aise en opéra, oratorio, musique d'église et jazz. Son style est immédiatement accessible et durablement mémorable. Il a passé ses années de formation imprégnées de jazz et de la tradition chorale anglaise donc dans sa musique chorale, il est capable de juxtaposer lecteur rythmique solide et des harmonies riches avec des lignes vocales délicieusement lyriques.Ce paramètre glorieux de mots paraphrasées par Bède le vénérable (une citation d'un des prières de Bède le vénérable qui se bloque sur le mur est au-dessus de sa tombe dans la cathédrale de Durham) a été écrit pour un mariage en 1995. Simple choral écrit soutenues par une partie de l'orgue lumineux se combinent pour créer un hymne de la beauté et la radiance. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen's Green for 4 Voices (SATB). Programme note: New Ground – No Ground – Green In 1986 I wrote Ground for the Kronos Quartet. I used the principle of the baroque ground and created a series of chords – going up and going down symmetrically. The material formed the basis for the quartet. In my next collaboration with Kronos I wrote the darker Last Ground – at the time supposed to be my last composition of the kind. After some years this seemed a bit pathetic and I decided to write a new – lighter ground – New Ground. To disappoint mylisteners as much as possible I based this piece on a very old and very well-known ground: Pachelbel’s Canon.  The piece is tonal and that suggested another –atonal – composition – No Ground (based on another string quartet – no. 7 Parted from 1984 first performed by Kronos). I am very fond of the elaborated constructivism of the medieval or early renaissance music so in my view the two new quartets needed to be connected and combined. The two quartets can be performed in combination with the four-part vocal piece Green. The text is from medieval England. The pieces are written for the Kronos Quartet and Theatre of Voices.

The Beaufort Scale is a humoresque for unaccompanied choir of mixed (SATB) Voices composed in 1984 by the Finnish contemporary classical music composer Aulis Sallinen. Named after the wind velocity scale – an empirical measure that relates wind speed to observed conditions at sea or on land – the lyrics are direct quotations from the official scale. With every step up the scale the volume increases and the voices diverge more and more creating the effect of wind blowing stronger and stronger from different directions. When the scale reaches its peak at 12 (Hurricane) the chorus chants SOS (‘SSS-OOO-SSS’) which eventually fadesas the piece reaches its final chords. Audiences will love this clever piece and it will be at least as much fun to listen to as to perform. Duration 5-6 minutes.

Perfect for beginning men's groups the solid vocals are coupled with a rhythmic accompaniment that really moves this arrangement along. Includes an optional third part for TBB groups.Available separately: TB. Time approx. 3:00.

Composed in 1980 and revised in 2010 this is a setting of verses from Aquinas’s Pange lingua in modern English translation. The choral writing is appropriately hymn-like with one a cappella passage. The organ part comprises a flowing two-part canonic texture over a very simple and sparse pedal part accessible to experienced and 'reluctant' organists alike. Suitable for intermediate standard choirs. The original accompaniment for oboe & viola is available as a free download from Boosey.com.
