Nolo mortem peccatoris
Nolo mortem peccatoris; haec sunt verba Salvatoris.[I desire not the death of a sinner; these are the words of the Saviour.]
Father, I am thine only Son, sent down from heav’n mankind to save.Father, all things fulfilled and done according to thy will, I have.Father, my will now all is this: Nolo mortem peccatoris.Father, behold my painful smart, taken for man on ev’ry side;Ev'n from my birth to death most tart, no kind of pain I have denied,but suffered all, and all for this: Nolo mortem peccatoris.

Galaxias by Santiago Veros
The work narrates the idea that each person is a light that is part of the galaxy. The text describes an eternal being that receives the ancestral light to form part of the stellar mantle. It provides support and guidance to those who are looking for a path.
Lyrics
And the shadow of twilight fades
when the light of the ancestors
forms a mantle that protects and guides us.
A being illuminating the galaxies
The certainty on the shipwrecked path
The glint of existence, time and distance.
The ancient aurora of golden light
at the awakening of the dawn
the eyes radiant with certainties
condensed into rays of light.
The eternal radiance of the soul:
an instant of infinite distances
and the birth of a million dawns. less

This performance was recorded on 5th December 2010 in the Harvey Nichols Espresso Bar in Leeds' magnificent Victoria Quarter in the first of St Peter's Singers' now-traditional annual series of Sunday evening carol concerts there.
The choir is directed by Dr Simon Lindley, its Music Director since the Singers' formation in June 1977.

Creating a choral adaptation of a piano piece has its challenges. I tried to keep faithful to Satie's original musical inspiration and created lyrics to go with my arrangement that evoke an early summer morning, one of my favourite times of the year.
Several months later, I applied to be a participant at one of the Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by the SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted.
"As dawn breaks" was one of the pieces that this amazing choir sight read for me on the spot. VCC director Jon Washburn and choir members then provided me with valuable feedback, for which I am very grateful.
NB: One day I woke up to the realization that I had independently written four choral works, each of which had evoked a different season, and so it seemed natural to group ... less
