  • Reflections on Chilcott's Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir
    Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem y b Members of the ChancelReflections Choir on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Reflections on Chilcott’s Requiem by Members of the Chancel Choir Requiem Bob Chilcott Robert “Bob” Chilcott, born in 1955, is a British choral composer, conductor, and singer. He sang in the Choir of King’s College, Cambridge, both as a boy and as a university student. In 1985 he joined the King’s Singers, singing tenor for 12 years. Chilcott began composing in 1997, and has had remarkable success since that time. TheRequiem was premiered on March 13, 2010, at the Sheldonian in Oxford, England, by the Oxford Bach Choir and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It was first performed in the United States at Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church, Dallas, Texas. Requiem is dedicated to Chilcott’s niece, who died at age 23, while he was composing the piece. It is beautifully reflective, and at the same time is given focus and direction by the composer’s keen sense of melody and innate feeling for rhythm, be it in the lyrical, rolling tenor solo in the Angus Dei, or the crystal simplicity of the Pie Jesu; the gently pulsing first few bars of the Introit, or the driving irregular beats of the Sanctus. The work’s components develop at different paces—it is hard to put a finger on one particular moment of arrival. The Sanctus, with its dance-like patterns, provides the dynamic peak of Requiem; the Pie Jesu perhaps offers the emotional center of the work; and Thou Knowest, Lord presents a central point for the text.

  • Order of Service for the Commonwealth Service 2020
    The Commonwealth Service A Celebration of the Commonwealth Monday, 9th March 2020, 3.00 pm Commonwealth Day Message 2020 On Commonwealth occasions, it is always inspiring to be reminded of the diversity of the people and countries that make up our worldwide family. We are made aware of the many associations and influences that combine through Commonwealth connection, helping us to imagine and deliver a common future. This is particularly striking when we see people from nations, large and small, gathering for the Commonwealth Games, for meetings of Commonwealth governments, and on Commonwealth Day. Such a blend of traditions serves to make us stronger, individually and collectively, by providing the ingredients needed for social, political and economic resilience. Throughout my life, I have had the opportunity to see and hear how membership of the Commonwealth family means so much to those living in all parts of the world, often in places that are quite remote. Advances in technology and modern media have now enabled many more people to witness and enjoy - with remarkable immediacy - this experience of Commonwealth connection, in areas such as education, medicine and conservation. Looking to the future, this connectivity means we are also aware, perhaps as never before, that wherever we live, our choices and actions affect the well-being of people and communities living far away, and in very different circumstances. For many, this awareness awakens a desire to employ our planet’s natural resources with greater care, and it is encouraging to see how the countries of the Commonwealth continue to devise new ways of working together to achieve prosperity, whilst protecting our planet.

    Westminster Abbey Service of Commemoration and Thanksgiving to mark ANZAC Day Saturday 25 April 2009 Noon HISTORICAL NOTE T is now over 90 years since the landings on the Gallipoli I Peninsula on 25 April 1915. In the heroic campaign that followed, the casualties on both sides were heavy. Of the Allied Forces – from the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, France, Newfoundland, and India – some 50,000 lost their lives. The total number of casualties on the Allied side at Gallipoli, including those wounded or evacuated for sickness, was some 250,000. The Turkish forces lost over 86,000 and also sustained a high number of wounded. Australian and New Zealand forces fought for the first time under a united command as the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, or more famously the ANZACs. In both countries, ANZAC Day, 25 April, not only commemorates those first landings at Gallipoli but also all the Australians and New Zealanders who have given their lives in the service of their countries. The whole of the church, with the exception of the North Transept, is served by a hearing loop. Users should turn their hearing aid to the setting marked T. The New Zealand flag is borne by Sub Lieutenant Kulhushan Bhosale, RNZN. The Australian flag is borne by Warrant Officer II James Quinn. The Turkish flag is borne by Mr Eilfon Irfan Cinpir, Military Admin Attaché, UK. The flag of the United Kingdom is borne by a Representative of Her Majesty’s Armed Forces. 2 The service is sung by the Westminster Abbey Special Service Choir, conducted by James O’Donnell, Organist and Master of the Choristers.
