This is techically very easy to learn but it is quite exhausting, especially for sopranos. I am not really a fan of such simple music though.

I meant to also comment on the choir -- incredible job, Tenebrae and Nigel. I'm a fan!! Keep making music like this and I'll be a happy man forever. :-)

STUNNING! Those low Bb's (I think) are absolutely divine! Thank you John for this masterpiece. Does anyone know if this is in print yet? Would love to get my hands on a copy of the score.

My deepest respect for Tenebrae Choir and Nigel Short.

This is making me think of my trip to the Cave of the Apocalypse on Patmos. I swear I could here this type of music in the background lol!

I wasn't expecting the pipe organ to come in!  And the choir is really awesome! This is awesome!

I've heard that John Taverner is Orthodox. It comes out in his amazig music too. I'd love to hear a musical setting for the Divine Liturgy composed by John Taverner!
