Music for contemplative worship-Since 1986 the world-class opera singer broadcaster and choral conductor Margaret Rizza has dedicated herself to the world of spirituality and to the wider aspect of music in the community. She composes hauntinglybeautiful melodies and is now recognised around the world as an icon of all that is holy and best in Christian composition. Her music is wonderfully melodic often with simple repetitive melodies carrying short usuallyscriptural texts. Fire of Love is in Margaret's own words 'a way to still the mind so that our hearts may be open to the transforming work of the living loving life-giving eternal spirit'.The 14songs included: The Lord Is My Light Christus Natus Est A blessing Calm me Lord Enfold me in your love Exaudi nos Domine Fire of love In the Lord is my joy Jesus is our joy Prayer of St Patrick Sanctum nomen Take my life Lord The Grail prayer and Thou art all things.

Kevin Volans' String Quartet No. 9: Shiva Dances was commissioned by BBC Radio 3 and first performed by the Smith Quartet at the 2004 Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival.Kevin Volans (the composer) notes on the piece:In the past I have been interested in trying to go beyond historicism (1970s) beyond style(1980s) and beyond form (1990s) in my work. Looking back over the music of the twentiethcentury I was struck by the fact the nearlyall of it is extremely 'busy' almost cluttered. Italmost seemed that composers felt compelled to look industrious. In the new millennium Ithought it would be interesting to try and eliminate content. I also aspired to movingfrommusic (sound as art) to art (art as sound). This of course has already been done by a numberof composers (many from New York Phil Niblock and La Monte Young to name but two) butit was something I had never tried.AlthoughI found it annoying that the label 'minimalist' was given to my African-based work and fearing this would make the label stick I set out to write a piece which reflected my loveof minimal painting and architecture. The Japanesehave a term 'wabi' meaning 'voluntarypoverty' or 'emptiness' to describe their restrained minimal aesthetic an aesthetic which however pays greatest attention to the quality of material and fine detail. I like to think thatthelack of excessive pitch material in this piece reflects a kind of voluntary poverty.When Shiva is portrayed dancing (as Nataraj) He is depicted in a circle of flames crushing asmall figure the ego underfoot.You get theimpression He dances on the spot not movingaround at all. I like that.The piece is dedicated to Pablo Pascual Cilleruelo.
