Will Todd, born in 1970, is forging a strong reputation for himself as a composer who is equally at ease in opera, oratorio, church music and jazz. His style is instantly accessible and lastingly memorable. He spent his formative years steeped in both jazz and the English choral tradition so in his choral music he is able to juxtapose strong rhythmic drive and rich harmonies with exquisitely lyrical vocal lines.The composer writes of this piece: 'Angel Song II is inspired by the idea of angels singing on Christmas night. The music weaves a gentle melody over the aleatoric textures of the accompanying voices. The text is designed to create the echo of the word 'Hosanna', but with no consonants, so that the music feels as if it comes from 'on high'.' / Choeur SATB A Cappella

Ubi caritas et amor is a simple, reflective anthem for mixed-voice choir and organ. Brian Easdale was educated at Westminster Abbey Choir School and attended the Royal College of Music, where he won the Foli Scholarship for composition. He wrote his first opera, Rapunzel , when only 17, and went on to composer many other dramatic and orchestral works, including the chamber opera The Sleeping Children. The Missa Coventriensis is one of his larger choral works, composed for the consecration of Coventry Cathedral in 1962. Easdale is perhaps most famous for his film music, including Black Narcissus and The Red Shoes, for which he won an Academy Award for best original music score in 1948. 'Ubi Caritas is the work of a craftsman steeped, naturally, in the musical culture of the inter-war years. It commends itself in its quiet yet muscular and expansive response to the text. With minimal divisi, it is within the capability of a good church choir.' - Howard Layfield, Mastersinger / Choeur SATB Et Orgue
