For
SATB unaccompanied
Bright, electric, and
charged with energy, this
setting of one of the
seven Advent 'O'
Antiphons features
Jackson's characteristic
flourishes of melodic
ornamentation, tempered
by moments of calm from
the sustained lower
voices and softly spoken
phrases in the upper
voices.

New
Horizons
N
ew Horizons showcases the
wealth of exciting,
innovative, and
occasionally challenging
choral music being
written today. It
encompasses the whole
gamut of small-scale
choral genres, both
secular and sacred, and
includes pieces for
upper-voice and mixed
choirs. With titles by
some of the most
accomplished choral
composers active in Great
Britain and abroad, the
series introduces new
repertoire and fresh
talent to a broad
spectrum of choirs. New
Horizons features
composers with growing
reputations for quality
composition reflecting a
strong individual voice.
The series is continually
expanding and should be
the first place to look
for attractive and
performable contemporary
choral music.
