Sinossi

for SSATB unaccompanied
This glorious, heartfelt, and at times agonizing work sets a prescient text by Nicholas Andreas Vrenios, a victim of the Lockerbie bombing in 1988. McDowall employs vocal embellishments, harmonic dissonances, and references to musical material from the final chorale of Bach's Cantata BWV 78 to create a haunting sound-world that serves as a poignant memorial to a tragic event.

Informazioni sull?autore

Cecilia McDowall has been described by the International Record Review as having a 'communicative gift that is very rare in modern music.' An award-winning composer, McDowall is often inspired by extra-musical influences, and her choral writing combines rhythmic vitality with expressive lyricism. Her music has been commissioned, performed, and recorded by leading choirs, among them the BBC Singers, The Sixteen, and Oxford and Cambridge choirs and is regularly programmed at prestigious festivals in Britain and abroad. In 2017 McDowall was selected for an Honorary Fellow award by the Royal School of Church Music.
