Listen to Dusk Songs

In 2005 The Ebor Singers worked on a piece by Kerry Andrew, at the time studying composition at the University of York with Professor Roger Marsh. The music was a setting of the Latin hymn O lux beata Trinitas and it was so well-received by the choir and audience that the choir felt compelled to perform more of Kerry’s music - and so this commission of Dusk Songs was born.

Choir & Organ
5/5 stars

Church Music Quarterly
A delightful release ...an intoxicatingly relaxed ambience.
