Sixteen- Lead Kindly Light (CD)
Spain's Siglo de Oro, the Age of Gold, gave rise to some of the greatest sacred choral music of the Renaissance. Lead, Kindly Light is devoted to the music of two outstanding Spanish composers exploring majestic works by Cristobal de Morales, famed throughout Europe and in the New World, and the exquisite polyphony of Sebastian de Vivanco, whose intricately crafted counterpoint adorned services at the cathedrals of avila and Salamanca during the late 1500s. Contrasting and complementing these 16th-century masterpieces are spellbinding settings of words by Saint John Henry Newman: Sir James MacMillan's Nothing in Vain for soloists and double choir and the world premiere of Kerensa Briggs' Lead, kindly light, specially commissioned for this album.
