for STB soli and unaccompanied SATB choir This unaccompanied motet
was first performed at the dedication of the Battle of Britain
Chapel in Westminster Abbey, London, and has an accordingly sombre
tone. It opens with a haunting treble/soprano solo, and this
ethereal atmosphere continues with unexpected harmonic shifts and
hushed vocal writing. The words are taken from The Wisdom of
Solomon (3: 1-5) and convey death as peaceful for those who have
been 'righteous'. This motet would therefore be particularly
well-suited to funeral or memorial services.
