John Tavener's Coplas composed in 1970 for unaccompanied SATB Choir.'Coplas is a short anthem for voices and tape. It belongs to a much larger work called 'Last Rites' which I have beenthinking about for about a year. It is based on the mystical idea of St. John of the Cross which obsesses me - 'the more I live the more I must die.' Hence the deliberately static nature of Coplas.In once sense Coplas is aprolonged decoration of the 'et sepultus est' cadence from the Crucifixus in Bach's Mass in B minor. In another sense I think of it not so much as my music but a way of listening to Bach's music.' - JohnTavener

The world première of A New Commandment a piece by the late Sir John Tavener specially commissioned for Summer Fields was in February 2014 at the Sheldonian Theatre Oxford.This work waspossibly one of his very last commissions before his sudden and untimely death in November 2013. COMPOSER’S NOTE'I have set these words from St John’s Gospel many times because I feel them to beamong the most profound and therefore key texts in the Christian faith.This setting falls into three sections with an ABA structure.A New Commandment is dedicated to my mother-in-law Mary but it is also an unspokentribute to the Spanish master Victoria who has inspired me throughout my life.'
