Four Passion Meditations

This short collection presents the complete set of meditations from Chilcott's stunning St John Passion. Setting English poems from the 13th to the early 17th centuries, the meditations provide a very personal reflection on the dramatic story of the passion - at times anguished, adoring, and humbling. The beautiful soprano solo soars over the SATB voices and organ accompaniment in 'Christ, my Beloved' and 'Jesus, my Leman', while the unaccompanied choir take centre stage for 'Miserere, my Maker' and 'Away vain world'.
