Medley of familiar hymns Evensong portrays the calmness of an approaching evening with this reflective setting utilizing three familiar hymn tunes.

Hailstork walks a softer side with Evensong. This piece began with a desire to write simple, lyrical pieces in a tranquil style, says Hailstork. Evensong is a suite of seven movements, at times one leading into the next. For advanced performers.

This is a complete Evensong setting which ranges from unison and two part singing (Preces and Responses) to three part voices (Nunc Dimittis, which calls for a soloist.) The organ accompaniment is sometimes merely supportive and at other times solidly featured (in the Phos Hilaron, for one example). Despite the fact that this was written for children's choir, we think it is a useful package for anyone who wants Evensong material that will carry you through the entire service from start to finish.

From the composer: Evensong was composed at the request of my friend David Wick, principal hornist of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra. He asked that I compose a recital piece for him to play with the orchestra's music director, JoAnn Falletta, who is also a virtuoso guitarist. The only stipulation he made was that the work include fragments of one of his favorite melodies, “Lasst mich alleâ€, from Four Songs, Op. 82, by AntonÃn Dvorák. The melody is also quoted in the Adagio movement of DvorákÂ’s Cello Concerto in B Minor, Op. 104, B. 191. The music is absolute in nature and cast in the form of a single movement fantasy based loosely on DvorákÂ’s melody, which is stated at the outset and at the conclusion.

This moving cantata is a worship service of contemplation and reflection. Based on the classic Evensong service, the work is appropriate for choirs looking for a something that is both traditional and yet very innovative. A profound blending of message and music, the writers have provided a moving invitation to quietly consider the advent moment from an ancient yet relevant perspective, while the narration for multiple readers and congregation poignantly weaves everything together. Though brief, this powerful work will be an inspiring moment as your church prepares for the Christmas event. Truly inspired!Songs include: 'Tis the Winter of Our Longing; O Come, Thou Wisdom; O Come, Thou Branch of Jesse's Tree; O Come, Thou Key of David; O Savior, Open Heaven Wide; Come, Thou Long-Expected Jesus; Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying; O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.

This stately and sonorous grace was written for a celebration held at Oundle School of the civil partnership of two friends of the composer, who points out that as one studied at Oxford and the other at Cambridge, he chose a text with no association to any particular college! Though appropriate in purpose to any occasion where a communal meal is shared with a sense of thankfulness, the words, relating to God's gifts in all kinds and degrees, make it equally suitable as an introit before a service such as Evensong. The rich sound of five parts, with its prominent alto duet, reflects the parts usually sung by the dedicatees.

Suitable to be sung as an Evensong anthem, this is a very simple and practical setting for keyboard and voice - which might be a solo soprano or treble, or unison - of a Victorian children's hymn that can still be found in numerous contemporary collections. Its flowing, unforced melody is an ideal counterpart to Sabine Baring-Gould's words which, like the poems of Robert Louis Stevenson's A Child's Garden of Verses, owe their enduring appeal to the sincere expression of a youthful innocence that rings no less true to the sensibility of adults. The Lullaby was written to celebrate the birth of the composer's godson, at the request of his grandparents.
