Will Todd’s Jazz Missa Brevis gives new life to the sung Latin Mass texts in an accessible short setting which embraces a variety of jazz styles from the swinging jazz waltz Kyrie to the up-beat Latin-groove Gloria. The smooth jazz ballad Sanctus 7/8 Benedictus and soulful Agnus Dei complete this inspiring Mass setting. Underpinned by Todd’s characteristic jazz harmonies and melodic craftsmanship it is suitable for performance both liturgically and as part of a concert by Mixed Choirs of all abilities. The work can be accompanied by Piano alone (as written or extemporised) Jazz Trio (Piano Bass and Drums)or jazz ensemble (Alto Saxophone 2 Trumpets and jazz trio – parts available separately).

Volume 2-A second tremendous volume featuring a trio of Part-songs by Percy Turnbull. These songs are all set for SATB mixed chorus.

This interesting new take on the classic carol O Little Town Of Bethlehem by Swiss composer Carl Rütti formed one-third of a trio of carols that reinvigorated the old favourites with fresh and interesting musical elements. The Three Carols medley was initiated in 1996 with O Little Town Of Bethlehem forming the Adagio section. Carl Rütti's work blends the English choral tradition with other genres such as jazz and blues. His work defies expectations and as such this would make a great piece to perform for choirs who are perhaps tired of the traditional Christmas choral works. In theSeptember 2015 issue of Organists' Review Michael Overbury wrote that this piece is '[w]ell crafter and emotionally engaging...the painfully bittersweet clashes convey the poignancy of the Incarnation superbly well.'

This interesting new take on the classic carol Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day by Swiss composer Carl Rütti formed one-third of a trio of carols that reinvigorated the old favourites with fresh and interesting musical elements. The Three Carols medley was initiated in 1996 with My Dancing Day?forming the Presto section. Carl Rütti's work blends the English choral tradition with other genres such as jazz and blues. His work defies expectations and as such this would make a great piece to perform for choirs who are perhaps tired of the traditional Christmas choral works and want to inject some freshmusical vigour into their festive repertoire. In the September 2015 issue of Organists' Review Michael Overbury writes that this piece is 'immediately accessible with typically spicy chromatic inflections.'

(Novello New Choral Series)-There is no rose of such virtue is an anonymous mediaeval text already well known through beautiful settings by Britten (in his Ceremony of Carols) John Joubert and others. The poem is ‘macaronic’ (it presents a verse in English followed by a varying Latin refrain). This new version follows the illustrious examples above by remaining strophic and presenting broadly the same music in a succession of slightly different guises. The first verse is a straightforward four-part setting the second gives the melody to the tenors and surrounds them with hushed wordless writing for the other parts and the third explores a freely canonic relationshipbetween the tenor and soprano lines before carrying the previous verse-endings to a higher more exalted pitch and mood. The fourth verse then expands its texture in a free climactic passage evoking the songs of praise sung by the angels. This subsides towards the final verse where the texture of the music attenuates again to four parts and canonic writing (based on the first four notes of the original melody) permeates all of them. This slightly extended statement leads to a hushed final cadence.Francis Pott (b. 1957) began musical life as a chorister at New College Oxford. He held open music scholarships at Winchester College and at Magdalene College Cambridge where he studied composition with Robin Holloway and Hugh Wood while pursuing piano studies privately in London with the distinguished British artist Hamish Milne.

In 2001 he became Head of London College of Music University of West London later leading research across the University’s Faculty of Arts and acceding in 2007 to its first Chair in Composition. Francis Pott has become recognised particularly for his sacred choral and organ music. This has been performed in concert and on radio in

C,M, 14/18 est une commande de l'ensemble vocal 20/21 dirigé par Cyrille Colombier pour être une des créations du projet VoCE (Voix et Chemins d'Europe), Ce projet est un ensemble de créations artistiques et d'échanges humains européens faisant pendant aux commémorations de la Grande Guerre,La pièce est la superposition de deux mondes sonores :D'un côté, le chant du départ, chant guerrier et triomphal, composé à la Révolution Française et repris à la guerre de 14/18, Il est réharmonisé et étiré, comme un souvenir lancinant, toujours présent, mais qui aurait perdu de sa vigueur originelle, De l'autre, des paroles de poilus dont la prosodie se calque sur la langue parlée, évocation d'un quotidien de misère, de peur et de non-sens,Les mots des deux textes s'influencent les uns les autres troublant leur sens dans un contrepoint amer et les deux mondes musicaux s'altèrent l'un l'autre, mais ne se rencontrent vraiment que dans la décomposition de la sonnerie aux morts finale, / Choeur Mixte
