Henschel's There were Shepherds is a gorgeously intimate setting of the well-known text of Luke 2: 8-14 and would equally be at home in a carol service or Christmas concert.

Guts and Grace considers courage and determination as essentially private qualities, mothered by dark necessity, but on occasion needing to step up publicly, especially in the sporting arena, and roar. This movement is intense and charged with emotion and gives opportunity for sections of the choir to shine individually, as well as a beautiful, soaring soprano solo section in the middle.

Stacey Gibbs captures the soul of each Spiritual he arranges. The essense of the song is unchanged, yet something new and fresh appears. It is the spiritual we know and love, yet it glistens like never before. This 8-part setting continues that tradition and is an excellent choice for college or community choirs. Medium in difficulty.

Another movement from Titration, this piece explores the connection that we all have to one another. Although there is significant divisi, the piece is rewarding to advanced choirs.

Commissioned by Christopher and Nicola Lock for the St James's Church, King Street Organ Replacement & Restoration Appeal in November 2019, this is a beautifully radiant introit, with text taken from a liturgical book of processions, dating from about 1526.Shelly explains: The format for the plainchant is such that there is a response, a verse, and repetitions of the response. I haven't replicated the format in my work, instead setting it as one 'run-through' of the text in a full choral setting. I've also set it in a way that the ending doesn't sound final. This is deliberate because as an Introit, it is an introduction to the liturgy, and I want the piece to 'lead in' to the rest of the liturgy..
