A Perfect Friend
The Norwich Service
If music be the food of love
Cana's Guest
The Magi's Gifts
The Beloved
Welcome, all wonders
O Day-spring
Videte miraculum
A Prayer of St Richard of Chichester
Don't you weep when I am gone
God be in my head
The Lord reigns

Celebrating ten years since the inception of Merton College’s choral foundation, the choir’s seventh Delphian recording follows the themed anthologies which brought it such immediate critical acclaim with what will be the first in a series of close collaborations between the choir and individual living composers. Richard Allain writes music across a wide spectrum of genres; he and Benjamin Nicholas have put together a programme showcasing his oeuvre – from a setting of the Evening Canticles, animated then impassioned, to a sumptuous reimagining of the spiritual Don’t you weep when I am gone and Allain’s most performed work, the wedding anthem Cana’s Guest.
