These four works with their orchestral accompaniments thus represent something akin to a new genre in English church music.The four anthems are presented in clearly laid out vocal scores with straightforward piano reductions based on the Urtext from the Halle Handel Edition. Their enticingly varied and self-sufficient orchestral writing provides a suitable framework for the festive chorus and equally festive solo numbers. Today they sound as splendid as ever!The full scores and vocal scores also contain a German translation along with the original English text.

Swedish/English-'My music is my own and I have never tried to be original. That has always been my motto and I have only tried to use music to express all the feelings which life has to offer. This has led people to describe my music as ?so sad that it sounds like birds who have lost their wings? but also as ?the happiest classical music that we have ever heard?. My compositions are almost all sacred. They express not only my own faith but also my appreciation and respect for the timeless texts that have been used for centuries and centuries.' - Mårten JanssonMårten Jansson (b. 1965) elected member of the Föreningen svenska tonsättare (the Societyof Swedish Composers) graduated from the Royal College of Music Stockholm (KHM) with an MFA degree in Music Education Dalcroze Eurhythmics and Voice.
