Giles evokes a serene musical aura as he casts the opening statement of Ubi Caritas as an alto and tenor duet in an organum-like setting. The text, taken from the Mandatum, the rite of the washing of the feet traditionally observed on Maundy Thursday, is sensitively expressed by the rhythm of the music. Also, Giles' employment of extended vocal ranges and dynamics helps to express the vastness of the love described in this text. Though particularly appropriate for Maundy Thursday, it will also serve well as a general anthem for Holy Communion.

Taken from the Sarum rite, this text has long been the object of many composers' affection and in this case, is allowed to take shape within a moderately narrow vocal range. The uncomplicated imitation within the music enhances the simplicity of this ancient prayer as each part sings each phrase, rhythmically uniting at the final request: God be at my end..

Alternatim is a practice dating from the early Christian church that utilizes two or more performing groups or contrasting styles of composition in the presentation of a liturgical text. In these two Agnus Dei settings, plainchant is contrasted with polyphony. Richard Proulx has edited these useful settings that seamlessly combine a familiar chant dialogue (Agnus Dei XVI) for cantor and assembly with choral extensions by Renaissance composer William Byrd based on this same melody. These settings from the rich heritage of the Church can easily be integrated into your community's Communion rite.

For cantor or soloist. .

The composer writes: â??I was delighted to be asked by Daniel Hyde and King's College, Cambridge to write this year's commission for the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols. I have chosen to set a familiar text and tune - Angelus ad Virginem - and for it to serve as a tribute to the late great Simon Preston CBE (chorister and later organ scholar at King's). The text suggests something descriptive and exuberant, and this arrangement makes use of the original 13th century carol throughout. A colorful organ part is designed to propel the music forward, sometimes twisting and distorting the melody in unexpected ways, hopefully reflecting something of Simon's wit, vitality and stylish energy.â? - Matthew Martin.
