More about this title

For St Cecilia op. 30 - Ceremonial Ode

For St Cecilia, Ceremonial Ode for tenor solo, chorus & orchestra; words by Edmund Blunden. The original work was commissioned by the St Cecilia s Day Festival Committee for the 1947 celebration of music s patron saint. The ceremonial mood is established with fanfares, and the sonorous sweep of the choral writing reflects Finzi s admiration for Parry and Elgar. The catalogue of saints, shared between the soloist and chorus, are deftly delineated: St Valentine, St George, St Dunstan, St Swithin and St Cecilia herself. In rapt stillness, the English composers of the past Merbecke, Byrd, Dowland and Purcell are summoned. To close, Finzi creates a festal summation with exultant counterpoint and the saint s name pealing around the chorus.060030277 | Finzi Gerald | Finzi Gerald | Finzi Gerald | Finzi Gerald
