POD Vocal Score-St. Mark Passion is a work by John Joubert for two Tenor and three Baritone soloists SATB Chorus Solo Cello and Organ. First performed in Wells Cathedral on Palm Sunday 20th March 2016 by Wells Cathedral Choir it was commissioned by 'Cathedral Commissions' of Wells Cathedral. A full performance lasts around 45 minutes and this is the Vocal Score. 'The work lasts about 45 minutes and rather like the St. Mark Passion by Charles Wood uses various pre-existant hymns to fulfill a similar function to the chorales in Bach's Passions. The scoring of solo Cello and Organ is skillfully handled so that the quasi-recitativenarrations feature both instruments to varying degrees the Cello often taking lead balancing the inevitably greater presence of the Organ in the hymns. Joubert's choice of hymns is impeccable (plainsong Bach Gibbons...) ending with 'When I survey the wondrous cross' and the idiom of the freely composed sections is given consistency through use of a gently undulating motif to accompany Christ's words (reminiscent of the opening of Vaughan William's Symphony no.5) and a chromatic motif in agitated sections (which happens to be the same as Shostakovich's DSCH theme). Although considerable demands are made on the instrumentalists and lead soloists the choral writing is rarely difficult and could be tackled by many choirs; I have no doubt that the work would be extremely effective in performance.' - Geoffrey Webber Choir & Organ Magazine

Henry Purcell (1659-1695) held numerous appointments at the Royal Court and Westminster Abbey and is considered by many to be the greatest ever English-born composer. His prolific work covered all fields: orchestral ecclesiastical operatic theatrical incidental and chamber music were all enriched by his output. The evocative anthem Thou Knowest Lord (Z 58) was written in 1687 and later included in William Croft'ssetting of the Burial Service 'for reasons obvious to every artist'. It has been sung at every British State Funeral since.This arrangement by Vincent Knight is for SAB Choir and Organ.

An anthem of quiet strength and exquisite beauty Great Is Your Name was designed as a trinitarian formula of praise – Creator Redeemer and Sustainer. Carl Freeman's original choral is centered on the love andmajesty of the Almighty. The noble almost folk-like melody and thoughtful text give us a glimpse of the character and scope of our God. For general worship or Trinity Sunday this moving anthem is sure to inspire.

A Capella-Great a cappella writing in the Parker/Shaw tradition comes to mind when hearing this arrangement. The familiar tune Warrenton from Southern Harmony (1835) is always evident as the other vocal parts dance about it. The resulting harmonies are fresh and liberating.
