Dá niel Dobos (* 1994) studied with Gyula Fekete and Máté Bella at the Department of Composition of the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music. In his violin concerto Sylvanus, he uses the technical repertoire of Transylvanian folk violinists. His piano piece, Drumul dracului, which won the first prize in 2018 at the Béla Bartók World Competition, also focuses on a new interpretation of Transylvanian folk music roots. In Callis stellarum, Dobos set one of the apocalyptic visions by the prophet Isaiah: “For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.” At the end of the composition, the Hungarian folk song “Csillagok, csillagok” (Stars and Stars) is heard as a kind of hopeful association. Commissioned by the municipality of Debrecen, this piece won the first prize in the youth mixed choir category of the HangKELTO Youth Composition Competition held in 2021.

Coventry Carol was arranged for the Choir of Trinity College, Melbourne as part of their 2015 carols services on December 4, 5 and 6. It has since been recorded for CD (Beneath the Incense Tree, APL17427) as part of the College's centenary celebrations for the consecration of the Horsfall Chapel in 2017, with current Director of Music Chris Watson conducting.

The well-known text is sourced from mystery plays celebrating the Feast of Corpus Christi, for which the traditional melody and harmonisation can be found in a 1591 edition published by Thomas Mawdycke. Here, the source material becomes increasingly unstable as the Massacre of the Innocents approaches, resulting in an apocalyptic climax. A barren and desolate epilogue follows, as foretold by Jeremiah 31:15. (She refuses to be comforted, for they are no more.).
