Ely Cathedral Girls’ Choir & Members of the Cambridge University Baroque Ensemble, Sarah MacDonald (director)

A powerful and moving selection of Lent and Passiontide music for upper voices, including new works and arrangements written especially for the Ely Cathedral Girls’ Choir.

Concludes with Pergolesi’s perennial favourite setting for two-part upper voices of the Stabat Mater, here performed with intimate accompaniment of period-instrument string quartet and organ continuo, and with solo movements sung by members of the choir.

Ely Cathedral Girls' Choir was founded in September 2006. The 18 girls are in years 9 to 13 at the King's School Ely.

Since 2010, the choir has been directed by Sarah MacDonald, who is also Director of Music at Selwyn College, Cambridge.

Sumsion:

Magnificat & Nunc Dimittis in G

O Lord thou hast searched me out

The Lord ascendeth up on high

Fear not O land

I was glad

One thing have I desired of the Lord
