Choral (SATB a cappella)

SKU: HL.48024856

SATB a cappella. Composed by Rhiannon Randle. Boosey & Hawkes Sacred Choral. Classical. Octavo. 8 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M060136658. Published by Boosey & Hawkes (HL.48024856).

ISBN 9781784545598. UPC: 840126910803. 7.5x10.25x0.03 inches.

From one of the UK's bright, emerging choral composers, Rhiannon Randle, is this sublime setting of the familiar Latin text. O nata lux is a personal reflection on the compelling and timeless choral atmosphere depicted by the famous Thomas Tallis setting of these words. Dedicated to the memory of Randle's late grandmother, the work balances a sense of intimate prayer and meditation with a spiritual declamation of the “light born of light.” To see hope and new life in despair and death - for in the darkness we have seena great light - chimes as much with the season of Advent as it does with personal loss. The lilting homophony of the opening is characterised by light tenuti, intended to provide a sense of gentle ebb and flow, almost as if to accentuate the natural emphases of speech. This then broadens into a polyphonic cascade, which hints at Bruckner as much as paying homage to Tallis's own setting. O nata lux is an exciting addition to the Contemporary Choral Series, suitable for intermediate to advanced choirs looking to support and program new music by outstanding young composers.

Flowing arpeggios underscore the opening verse of the melody while the optional flute soars above with a delicate counter-melody line. The melody returns in bass handchimes for a glorious, sonorous effect. A key change at the end paints the now-familiar melody in an entirely new light. A gorgeous masterpiece!
