Parry's Songs of Farewell were composed over the final decade of
his life. The elegiac tone of the Songs may also reflect a sense of
loss caused by the First World War - in which some of Parry's most
promising students at the Royal College of Music lost their lives -
and a decline in national confidence, expressed in a different
manner in Parry's famous Jerusalem of 1916. The motets are among
Parry's most eloquent and concise works, and deservedly form part
of the rich canon of British choral music. This edition, by
Associate Professor Robert Quinney, Director of the Choir of New
College, Oxford, is the first to offer a critical assessment of the
autograph manuscripts, held in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. It
offers a significant earlier version of a section of the fourth
motet, rescored passages from the fifth, helpful notes on
performance, and supporting online materials. A comprehensive and
practical edition, it also provides a clear and elegant
presentation of the text.
