Iain Farrington: Magnificat and Nunc dimittis: Mixed Choir And Piano/Organ

New settings of the two evening canticles which incorporate jazz elements, including harmony in voice parts and organ and many ‘blue’ notes. Despite these jazz elements, the music is very approachable, with natural syncopation and mostly homophonic writing. It is also available for upper or lower unison voices, with occasional optional divisi (ISMN 979-0-060-13012-0). Either version would be enjoyable and rewarding additions to a church choir’s modern liturgical repertoire, or indeed concert repertoire of all choirs.
