This Sunday, 22 March 2015, 6pm
Evensong at All Saints Church, Margaret Street, London W1W 8JG, is replaced by a
Passiontide Sequence of Music and Readings. During the service, my motet
Nos autem gloriari will be premiered by the choir of All Saints Church, conducted by their music director Timothy Byram-Wigfield.
Nos autem gloriari
comes from my collection Tempus
per Annum, which contains motets for the church's year setting the
Latin introits - one for each Sunday and major feasts. Though in fact
Nos autem gloriari sets not an introit, but an antiphon for Maundy Thursday.
The
collection is nearing completion, finally, and I am only three motets
off the final one (number 73!); I am currently working on the 33rd
Sunday in Ordinary
Time, and only have All Saints and the Feast of Christ the King to do.
All the finished motets, some sixty or so, are available for free
download from the
CPDL website.
