I hadn't heard this version before, I'm not sure which version we've been singing, but this arrangement was incredibly touching. The version we sing is much faster, uptempo, and more powerful, but I could clearly feel the words and their meaning when listening to this piece. It made me feel like crying, it's beautiful.
A standard, good setting; we are performing this this very evening and will start practicing in the afternoon... about 3 hrs from now (a combined choir- we are joining the choir at St George's in Johannesburg; we are Christ Church Arcadia, Pretoria).
morphthing1, this is pure bliss...I sang it at Lichfield Cathedral a few years ago when my choir, The Walbrook Singers did a residential trip there and I love it SO much - thanks for posting!!
Is thisalso sung by St. John´s Cambridge morphthing1? Whoever it is, it´s a wonderful example of all that is good about church music in England. Please keep posting!!!!!!
I happen to be working on creating the video for that very piece at the moment along with the Magnificat in B flat, should be all up over the next day or two.

Pity the organ part is not shown. But one of my favi=ourites as a tenor in a very good church choir.

Thank you, Morphthing, for putting this up as I have been looking for a decent version of this for a long, long time. It is a brilliant version.
Do you happen to have a version of Stanford's Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis in G?

Thank you very much, that's fantastic.
These are beautiful pieces that I am singing with my cathedral youth choir at the moment. I'm falling in love with spiritual music.
Thanks again.
