Su questo libro

Recensione:

John Rutter . . . always produces very beautiful works. This is no exception. From beginning to end it floats serenely on a gentle accompaniment. All intervals are singable. The organist can set the instrument up easily for the whole work with very few additions. No choir should be without this lovely work. (The Organ)

Here is a jolly piece, based on I Corinthians 14 v.15, which consistently remains restrained and never becomes extrovert, uses highly understandable harmony and modulations, does not try to be intellectually far-fetched (its cleverness is in its comparative simplicity) and has a straightforward organ part with lots of simple rhythmic interest largely centred on a syncopated motif. A particularly magic touch is the very soft ending on the word 'Alleluia'. This is a wonderful anthem in all respects, and I strongly recommend it to all choirs looking for something new without being difficult - it is also available in a two-part version. (Organists' Review)

L'autore:

John Rutter was born in London in 1945 and studied music at Clare College, Cambridge. His compositions embrace choral, orchestral, and instrumental music, and he has edited or co-edited various choral anthologies, including four Carols for Choirs volumes with Sir David Willcocks and the Oxford Choral Classics series. From 1975 to 1979 he was Director of Music at Clare College, and in 1981 he formed his own choir, the Cambridge Singers. He now divides his time between composition and conducting and is sought after as a guest conductor for the world's leading choirs and orchestras.
