VESPERS (2016) SATURDAY 20th MAY 2017
5.30pm BRISTOL CATHEDRAL
Further to the residency and recording of "Gustate et Videte" in Bristol earlier this year I was commissioned to write a larger scale choral work based on the Old Hispanic Office liturgy. This will consist of three short anthems, a Vespertinus, Sono and Alleluiaticum and also a set of Preces and Responses. Whilst the pieces are conceived a set the intention is very much that they can stand alone for use within the Anglican Liturgy. The first performance will take place at 5pm on Saturday 4th February 2017 in Bristol Cathedral alongside two other new commissions by the fabulous Euchar Gravina and Francisco Carbonell. I may be biased (!) but I think this will be an exceptional hour of new music......

Click here for tickets.
Click here for more information about the concert.
A suite of three pieces based on Baroque forms but with a distinctly modern twist!
The tune on which they are based comes from the "Kitty Bridges Pocket Book" (Reiver Music), a previously uncatalogued book of tunes discovered in a shoe box at RVW Library, Cecil Sharp House. These handwritten tunes were prefaced by a poem with the first letter of each line spelling out the name "Kitty Bridges".
Whilst we never found out who she was, we thoroughly enjoyed researching and recreating tunes that were a window into the "Pop Music" of the Baroque era.
