Jonathan Dove 'Seek Him that Maketh the Seven Stars'

[@mkbullock01]

Stunning. Ethereal. What beautiful music for this text.

This has to be the best recording of this piece I've heard. Simply SUBLIME!!! Thanks, organist, for not being scared to play!!!

[@timheavner6293]

First I read your comment, then I listened to/watched the performance and thought, "wow! -- that organist IS really good." THEN I noticed who was playing the organ. Thomas Trotter is the man! I'll be playing this in a couple of weeks. So glad I came across this performance.

[@pacificodelnorte6628]

@@timheavner6293 Agreed that the organist was stellar.

Absolutely beautiful!!! These babies are blessed by God.

This choir these days is like the trunk of a mighty oak: it has a mass to give rise to the greatest heights, filigree into hosts of swaying boughs and branches, or dissolve in the trembling of leaves. It does all of those things here. The phrasing is pulses organically, and the fortissimo tone clusters couldn't be more powerful. Marvelous, bravo.

This is a wonderful piece of music.

Can't believe their Indy concert got cancelled. This is miles ahead of anything we have around here.

Such sublime music! Thanks to the composer, and all the musicians involved in this recording. Here are the lyrics: Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion and turneth the shadow of death into the morning. Alleluia, yea, the darkness shineth as the day, and the night is light about me. Amen. This anthem is also so appropriate for the season of Eastertide.

Great diction. Which is what you'd expect from such a choir, but still gratifying to hear.

[@trevorstammers4737]

My first hearing of any recording of this piece and I agree it's sublime. Dove is without doubt my favourite living composer. Yet another reason for thinking so.

Gracias por compartir esta impresionante interpretación.

The right hand organ part has FeuxFollets-like figures... I tried playing this on piano and it felt like playing a Liszt Transcendental Étude.
