He was awarded an honorary Doctorate by the University of Southampton in 2002 in recognition of his Services to Music. 'Noël was a welcome addition to the Christmas list for decent standard choirs - Noël 2 adds even more to the repertoire in a handy volume... The main enticements are some fantastic new arrangements of old favourites, a number of works previously only available in single sheets (Whitacre's Lux Arumque among others) and some fantastic new surprises. Adrian Peacock's Venite, Gaudete is a wonderfully original and vibrant setting, Richard Rodney Bennet's I Wonder as I Wander is both reflective and effective, and there are plenty more. Some of the pieces here will challenge your choir, but there's a vast amount to get the Christmas inspiration flowing.

Par LALANDE MICHEL-RICHARD DE. The grand motets of Michael-Richard de Lalande (1657-1726), principal Chapel Music Director for Louis XIV and Louis XV, marked the high point of sacred music under the ancien régime. De profundis is the best-known of Lalande's motets, and is a justly celebrated work.Edited by distinguished scholar Lionel Sawkins (editor of Charpentier's 'Te Deum', also published by Faber Music), this practical performing edition of 'De profundis Clamavi' brings the work of this still relatively unknown composer to light./ Recueil / Chorale

Par BULLEN RICHARD. As well as traditional genres, Richard Bullen 's music embraces several contemporary ones including video and electronics, and shows a keen interest in location both in its formal possibilities and in its genius loci - its spirit of place. A five-minute stand-alone piece for SATB chorus, The Seven Arches was written for a site-specific project at the Dartington International Summer School: an invocation of the rich cultural and mythic past of the celebrated gardens. In poet Steve Willey 's multi-layered text the remaining seven arches of the medieval courtyard become metaphors for this continuing presence. Bold arched melodiesspringing from resilient, purposeful chords likewise animate the music, a sonic tableau of the sites/sights and sounds of history. The premiere performance was conducted by David Lardi with the Finchley Chamber Choir./ Feuillet / SATB a Cappella
