Description:
New 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. This emotive motet sets a combination of verses from Psalms 31, 48, and 71. Essentially a prayer for God's protection and guidance, the piece is characterized by pungent and mesmerizing shifts of harmony which underpin the tensions inherent in the text. It is suitable for both concert and liturgical use.
