After managing to lose sight of the score, I have recently rediscovered this, I Vespri di Santa Cecilia. It was written to celebrate London Concord Singers' 30th Anniversary in 1995, and naturally is for 30-part unaccompanied chorus. We never performed it alas, though the choir did premiere my 'cut down' version in a mere 14 parts.
