Contemporary American composer Nico Muhly is a prolific writer and arranger who, at 32, is the youngest composer ever to have been commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera in New York. His oeuvre includes two operas and many solo pieces and works for small ensemble, Orchestra and Chorus. Muhly has collaborated widely. This Choral work manifests some influences of Phillip Glass, for whom he has previously worked. Like As The Hart is Muhly's response to Herbert Howells's setting of the psalm, though in this version elongated harmonies 'drag' melodic fragments behind them.

Stars is one of the most popular of all contemporary choral works by Latvian composer Eriks Ešenvalds. The music begins with water-tuned glasses playing a sequence of chord clusters, which are heard throughout the whole piece. It creates an evocative effect, which is both imaginative and inventive prodcing an ethereal shimmering beauty. Phillip Littlemore's expert arrangement for brass band will bring a moment of enthralling stillness to any concert programme.
