Sing, Choirs! is a library in miniature. It contains many of the Christian church's popular traditional anthems, including at least one example that will be suitable for each of the major services of the year. A number of Anglican chants (Psalms, Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis) are included, set out in a way that should enable those who are unfamiliar with the style to perform them easily. The selection of movements from the Mass can be used to enrich the music of the liturgy in services. Many of the works in Sing, Choirs! are presented in their original form, such as Bruckner's Locus Iste and Mozart's Laudate Dominum . Others are arrangements, adaptations or longer pieces, abridged to bring them into the scope of a useable anthem, including choral arrangements of Handel's Largo , the Ave Marias by Schubert and by Bach and Gounod, and Franck's Panis Angelicus amongst many others. This collection has practicability as a priority. The Organ parts can be played on either the Piano or the Keyboard. Much of the music in Sing, Choirs! will be suitable for special occasions, making this an indispensable volume for choirs singing at weekly church services, weddings, funerals and in the concert hall. / Choeur Mixte (SATB) Et Orgue

Schubert’s masterful Litanei a strophic artsong that marks the Feast of All Souls while somehow communicating both loss and comfort appears to be relatively simple. But the long melodic lines never rising above mezzoPiano make real demands on focus and breath as well as on the performers’ artistic expression.This arrangement for Voices SATB with Piano or Organ is sensitively done.

This setting of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis is large in scale and features compelling melodies and harmonies moments of high drama and at the same time sensitive handling of the words. This is Wesley at his most masterful.Composer and Organist Samuel Sebastian Wesley is the grandson of Charles Wesley founder of Methodism and son of composer Samuel Wesley. He composed music almost entirely for the Anglican church and his works are frequently performed there.By most accounts Wesley was a difficult man who in his determination to improve the quality of country cathedral music often won enemies and lost support. After two unhappy appointments as cathedralOrganist Wesley accepted a position at the Leeds Parish Church which had a new building a new Organ and a vicar determined to create a choir for full Choral services. It was in these congenial circumstances that Wesley first presented this significant and influential Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis.

This anthem The Peace That Surpasseth Understanding by John Tavener was commissioned jointly by the Dean and Chapter of Westminster and the Ministry of Defence. It was first performed at a Service in Honourof the Passing of the World War One Generation in Westminster Abbey on Wednesday 11th November 2009 in the presence of Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh by the Choir of Westminster Abbeyconducted by James O’Donnell. COMPOSER’S NOTEIn this setting of Saint Paul’s great statement I have tried in a simple and primordial manner to suggest majesty solemnity and a radiance of peace andbliss. I have also given the music a ceremonial nature by inserting ‘Allelouias’ sounding from ‘Heaven’ (semi-chorus) gradually rising in pitch until they are answered by ‘Allelouias’ from‘The World’ (main choir). The music forms a gradual crescendo reflecting the meaning of the words. At the musical and spiritual climax the full organ sounds four chords which represent The Four Angels beforethe Throne of God. The final chord then transforms into the sacred monosyllable OM which hums around the building representing the Peace and Beatitude of God’s Presence. Duration: c. 4 minutes

Bridges was an outstanding humanitarian and writer, whose poetry has inspired me before in The Voice of Desire, a song-cycle for mezzo-soprano and piano. This short, fast-tempo setting aims to emulate the swift, fleet-footed rhyme and metre of the two-verse poem, with its unobtrusive but telling reference to 'man in his hasty days'. J.W. Commissioned by the Chapter of St Paul's Cathedral to mark the 90th birthday of HM The Queen, generously supported by the Boltini Trust. Performed at the National Service of Thanksgiving for HM The Queen's birthday at St Paul's Cathedral, London, on Friday 10th June 2016 in the presence of HM The Queen and HRH The Duke of Edinburgh.

(I love all beauteous things, etc…)/ Feuillet / Choeur Mixte (SATB) et Orgue

This joyful piece for SATB and Organ alternates spritely and brassy Organ fanfares with bold Choral assertions with the core pulse often offset by intricate rhythmic dialogue between Organ and Choir. It uses varied Choral textures to paint the text culminating in the bold homophonic statement ‘Omnis spiritus laudet Dominim!’ (All creatures praise the Lord) before an ecstatic Alleluia.
