Let your softness be known unto all men: the Lord is at hand. Be careful for nothing: But in all prayer and supplication, let your petitions be manifest unto God with giving of thanks.

He shall feed me in a green pasture : and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort. He shall convert my soul : and shall bring me forth in the paths of righteousness, for his Name's sake. Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil : for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff comfort me. Thou shalt prepare a table before me 'gainst them that trouble me : thou anointedst my head with oil, and my cup shall be full. But thy loving-kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life : and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. For Thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff comfort me. (Psalm 23) Sung at Canterbury Cathedral during our Royal School of Church Music Summer Course in 1986, under Martin How. I (David W Solomons) was one of the altos.

Let your moderation be known unto all men the Lord is at hand! Be careful for nothing But in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests be known unto God And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ our Lord.

This psalm forms the climax of the whole cantata and provides an expression of optimism after the tragedies of the previous sections. In this “extracted” version, the tragic surroundings of the history remain in the background and the purebubbling joy of the psalm itself shines forth. Enjoy the complex rhythms and let your hair down! This performance by Daniel Shaw's Composer's Choir (based in Connecticut) is a brilliant rendition of the piece and will, I hope, encourage other church choirs and concert choirs to consider including it in their repertoire.  less

So I decided to have a go at performing some of his works.they are in a style that I’ve not sung for over 20 years (evangelical church choir), But the old fervour still comes out in the performance: I was transported back to those good old days as I sang.
