O sacrum convivium was written in Spring 2023 as one of two commissions by Leeds St Anne's Cathedral Choral Programme. It received its first performance at their Girl and Boy Chorister Festivals in June of the same year. It was requested that I made the piece as flexible as possible, so it is available in versions for both unison upper voices and organ (see this version here), and for SATB and Organ. I hope the interchangeable formats allow for a wide range of possible performances.The soprano part takes the main melody throughout but there are intermittent organ and ATB interludes to accommodate younger singers in terms of stamina and range.

There are some crossovers between the alto and tenor parts because I love the timbre of those voices at different registers. I hope that this creates interesting textures from the traditional SATB voicing.

Difficulty | Easy-Medium

An approachable and adaptable work which sets both the Latin and English versions of the text. The soprano line is written with younger voices in mind, and the lyrical choral parts are well supported by the organ.

A Video of the piece will be uploaded soon
