for SATB unaccompanied Let nothing trouble you is a striking and
atmospheric setting of a prayer by the Spanish mystic, St Teresa of
Avila. This work is both comforting and meditative, reflecting the
mood of the text, and the music adds a beautifully haunting
quality, through the use of a murmuring two-note motif, widely
arching melodies, and reflective imitation. Commissioned by The
Genesis Foundation for Harry Christophers and The Sixteen, this
piece has been recorded by them on the disc 'O Guiding Night'
(COR16090).
for SATB and piano O Guiding Night is a colourful and evocative
setting of the text 'The Dark Night' by 16th-century Spanish
mystic/poet St John of the Cross. Williams's setting really gets to
the heart of the words, conveying a range of emotions from hushed
excitement to joyous rapture. Sumptuous harmonies and a strong
sense of narrative are combined with charming piano interludes in
an almost rhapsodic work, which would stand out in any concert.
for SATB (with divisions) unaccompanied Originally published in the
New Horizons collection Cantica Nova, this expansive Advent motet
creates a unique sound world through unusual harmonic inflections,
striking spatial effects, unmeasured notation, and haunting soprano
and tenor solos. Featured on CDs by Ex Cathedra (Christmas Music by
Candlelight) and The Sixteen (O Guiding Night), O Adonai, et Dux
domus Israel is quickly becoming a popular choice for choirs
looking to develop their contemporary repertoire.
Suitable for SATB and piano, This up-tempo arrangement combines a
funky piano part with walking pizzicato bass, a strong tune, scat
vocal lines, and swing-band style vocal harmonies to make a
show-stopper.
