Church Music - introduction
Welcome to the Church music Welcome page. You can access some of David's church music compositions through this page. Where singing is involved, I am delighted by the contributions of friends who have been brave enough to record in my garden shed.
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
This is sung by Kayleigh Conway-Jarrett, a student at Southampton University.
The words are from the Liturgy of St. James (Fourth century A.D.) It was translated by Gerald Moultrie (1829-85)
The piece is for sopranos, altos and men but just the soprano line is sung here.
Lords Prayer
A unison setting of the Lord's Prayer for soloist or congregation. The opening melody is the introduction for the Cantor - Let us pray with confidence as our Saviour has taught us.
The singer is Vera Giblin.
Very sadly, Vera died on 25th November 2010. She had a beautiful voice. She will be greatly missed not only by her immediate family but also by the community in which she lived and which she served unstintingly.
