The Feast of St. Edward, King and Confessor, at Westminster Abbey Robert Quinney - organ The Choir of Westminster Abbey James O'Donnell - conductor Recorded in Westminster Abbey on 6, 7, 14, 15 February 2006 Composers: Anonymous, William Smith, William Crotch, Charles Villiers Stanford, Henry Purcell, Jonathan Harvey, Anton Bruckner, William Morley, Philip Moore, Jeanne Demessieux This new recording from Westminster Abbey presents Matins, Eucharist and Evensong as they might be heard on the Feast of St Edward (13 October). The Saint, whose death in 1066 sparked the Norman Conquest, remains buried in the Abbey to this day and his shrine is a point of global pilgrimage. The Service of Matins is centred around the Morning Canticles from Stanford’s epic Service in C, Op 115, while Evensong takes is cue from Purcell’s masterful Evening Service in G minor, Z231. The Evensong anthem is the first recording of The King and the Robin, composed for the millennial celebrations of St Edward’s birth in 1005 with music by Philip Moore and words by the Poet Laureate, Andrew Motion. The Eucharist setting is Jonathan Harvey’s adventurous Missa brevis, composed for the Abbey in 1995 and here receiving its first recording. This striking, but assuredly liturgical, work combines shouted text and chaotic choral passages into a whole of unusual impact. --- Matins --- 01. Laudes Regiae plainsong 02.
