O lux beata caelitum
Sicut cervus
Missa Vidi speciosam
Versa est in luctum
O sacrum convivium
Credo quod redemptor
In spiritu humilitatis
Dignare me laudare te
Ave Maria
Magnificat septimi toni
Nunc dimittis
Ave Maria
Beati quorum via

In 1975, the original Bevan Family Choir released their debut album on vinyl, featuring an eclectic programme of sacred choral works, Welsh folk songs, and piano music. The Choir consisted of 11 of the 14 Bevan siblings and was conducted by their father, Roger. Later on the Choir was taken over by the second eldest son, David, who was to go on to become Assistant Director of Music at Westminster Cathedral. The musical tradition continued to flourish within the family until, in 2013, some of the second generation of cousins decided to create their own version of the family choir, naming themselves the Bevan Family Consort so as to distinguish them from their parents’ generation. The Consort has since ranged in size from 15-22 of the 53 first cousins. To honour David and the influence he had over us all as musicians, this disc consists of music that was introduced to us by him during his years at the Holy Redeemer Church and that have since become beloved by us as a choir. This disc is dedicated to his memory (he died 27th November 2021) and that of his close sister Rachel (who died 9th October 2022).
