The a cappella motet Alleluja (2018) is a song of longing which resonates existential need as well as the hope of a profound connection to God. In the beginning, which is delicate and motivically very concentrated but metrically deliberately uncoordinated, more and more voices gather to sing together, until suddenly, starting from the bass, a violent and rhythmically exalted incantation breaks out. The following fortissimo unison in a high register is the climax of the entire work piece. In the Abgesang, the beginning is taken up, but now in a polyphonic and harmonically intensified setting. The end in A major seems like a salvation. The work has been released on the CD Rejoice. Vocal Music by Kay Johannsen (Carus 83.496/00).

For SSAATTBB unaccompanied I sing of a Maiden combines flowing lines with rhythmic irregularity, and ends with an airy weightlessness which, in the words of the composer, echoes the vernal flavour of the words. Although rhythmically challenging, this beautiful carol is hugely rewarding and perfect for any experienced choir.

Heavenly Father was commissioned by Sydney Chamber Choir for a concert in 2022 which featured Heinrich Schütz’s Musikalische Exequien. Melodic lines from Schütz’s work are used throughout Heavenly Father: the first soprano melody in the opening chorus at ‘Herr Gott Vater in Himmel’ is featured at the beginning and repeated throughout, as are the melodies, for example, at ‘Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt’, and at ‘seinem verklärten Leibe’, among other places.

In a conversation about what this commission would be, it was agreed that the sense of the work would be about the circle of life expressed in Musikalische Exequien rather than about death itself. It is because of this ‘sense’ that the end of Heavenly Father is reversed, illustrating a musical circle: the lower voices sing the ‘Herr Gott Vater in Himmel’ phrase backwards, and the upper voices sing the melodies backwards that were sung by the lower voices at the beginning.

SSAATTBB choir and semi-chorus, a cappella - Medium/Medium Difficult

SKU: PL.9834

Composed by Bruce Neswick. Cathedral. Choral, General, Hymn, Lent. Octavo. Paraclete Press #9834. Published by Paraclete Press (PL.9834).

This anthem is set for a divided choir and also includes a brief solo for soprano. While Mr. Neswick is well-known for his exuberant personality in his anthems, this piece demonstrates a lyrical side that is most appealing. The vocal ranges are moderate in scope and that is achieved here. The harmonies are slightly challenging to the ear, yet they support the text in a most convincing manner. This work should find its way into the repertories of accomplished choirs, particularly for the Lenten season.

Shelley's setting of the Matins Responsory for Lent 1 was written for a group of singer-friends. It is based on Pierre de Manchicourt’s setting of the same text, and though taking its stylistic lead from Manchicourt, Shelley very cleverly infuses her own harmonic and rhythmic language into a new and brilliant creation.
