I think I remember these markings... |
This week was a lovely introit featuring George Herbert's Easter in the motet by Skellern called Easter Song, Smith's responses, Stanford in Bb, and the verse anthem by Gibbons, If ye be risen again, and the Voluntary:Howells Saraband for the morning of Easter.
Sopranos were in especially fine form. But I would also note the clear sound of the men in the unison Nunc Dimittus. All was well done by the choristers of St John the Divine, Quadra Street.
Next month, make a point of getting to evensong. (The fair daffodils are finished already but there is still more music.) Watch for the music list here.
