Women's Choir (SSA) | 2'45" | This setting of a poem by Linda Marcus is entirely pentatonic (i.e. uses only 5 notes – C, D, F, G and A) apart from the very last measure. The pentatonic setting is intended to create a naive effect, recalling childhood. (The very opening is based on a universal 3-note ‘song of childhood’.) The points […] | ||||

for Chorus, Soprano Solo, Chamber Orchestra & Organ | 33' | Mr. Ramsey’s Requiem sets the traditional Latin mass for the dead. It is intended to be a liturgical work, but is also at home in a sacred concert setting. The music stands in the traditions of Duruflé and Fauré, but is different from both.

Keeping as they do to the style of the period, they […] | ||||

for SATB Choir (with optional children's part) | 4'50" | This light-hearted holiday song was commissioned by a local community chorus, one of whose members wrote the words. I was asked to include a part for children’s choir, and I understand everyone enjoyed taking part. It has a simple message – to chase away the gloom, and spread light and happiness to all at Christmas […] | ||||
for mixed choir and keyboard | 4' | This simple Christmas setting resulted from an international collaboration between Brian Holmes of California and Gordon Thornett from the UK.
