Lent Concert · Apr 01, 2008
On Tuesday 11th March Simon’s latest piece had its first performance in Exeter College Chapel, Oxford. ‘Sacrifice’ sets a text by George Herbert alongside the J. S. Bach chorale that starts the Second Part of the Saint John Passion. The instrumental accompaniment was provided by period instrumentalists on violins and oboe d’amore. Owen Rees conducted the choir. Simon is hoping to undertake a longer Passiontide work for Lent 2009.
