Ausgesprochen stimmungsvoll setzt der neuseeländische Komponist die Klangkörper Chor, einzelne Stimmgruppen, Orgel und Trompete ad lib. miteinander in Beziehung. Ein bewegendes Konzertstück, welches das Publikum unmittelbar in seinen Bann zieht. Broad melodic arches and an enchanting sensuousness of sound characterize Chris Artley's setting of Psalm 121. He sets the Choir, the individual groups of voices as well as organ and trumpet ad lib in relationship to each other in an impressively atmospheric manner. It is a moving concert piece that will immediately fascinate the audience.  less
