This is the final motet in a set of three intended for various seasons. It opens with the sopranos alone presenting a soaring musical theme that is developed throughout the piece. The alto divides and needs a rich contralto tone to make its proper affect. The phrases rise and fall in the middle voice, giving the words a lovely setting for expression.

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.

The ST CLEMENT tune, often associated with an evening hymn, is here paired with a fresh morning hymn of praise: Hail, holy light! The world rejoices as morning breaks and shadows fly; all nature blends her myriad voices to greet the dayspring from on high... Break forth, in glory far excelling, O light eternal, love divine! Howard Helvey's choral and piano writing shine exquisitely as always in this anthem.
