Britten's delightful Rejoice in the Lamb reflects
Christopher Smart's joyous and playful text.
American composer Morten Lauriden's luminous Lux Aeterna is rapidly becoming a classic in
the choral repertoire and is complemented and
contrasted on this program by the brilliant dazzle
of Tarik O'Regan's Dorchester Canticles for
chorus, virtuoso organ, harp and percussion.
