ALL about ME..for now

Heaven

World premiere of Heaven by Roxanna Panufnik at evensong this afternoon; the composer pictured wearing stripes above. 

Evensong Review
It was commissioned by the Choir Association to mark the completion of the chapter house leaves restoration project. Modern in style with wonderful echoing of words amongst the polyphony, and very inclusive with the word "leaves" sung in many different languages. I absolutely loved it. 

The Dean also attended (robed in the foreground) and gave a wonderful  talk (homily) from the east end pulpit; a first for me, as was the choir singing the last piece from the chapter house corridor, which was behind us who were sitting in the quire.
