Stopford: Sacred Choral Music

Grace Davidson (soprano), Choir of St Luke's, Chelsea, Chelsea Camerata and Jeremy Summerly

Philip Stopford is admired in Britain and America for his beautifully crafted music, rooted in the Anglican tradition. His works are memorable and colourful, as these world premiere recordings demonstrate. The biggest piece on this album is the Missa Deus nobiscum, a sacred concert work with a scintillating role for soprano soloist that displays Stopford’s compositional skill, creating a journey rather than a sequence of set piece movements. Elsewhere, in pieces for a variety of locations and occasions, his music is evocative, filmic and vividly celebratory.

Missa Deus vobiscum

+Canticle of Christening; He is risen; O sing unto the Lord a new song; The Lord is sheperd; O clap your hands; Locus iste; Psalm 150; I hear the voice of Jesus say; God is our hope and strength
