To purchase the album: iTunes: http://bit.ly/M1QDHi Amazon: http://amzn.to/LRjwZo Resonus: http://bit.ly/Ls8IN8 IN THE Dark includes James MacMillan's stunning Miserere and specially commissioned works by Richard Bates, Platinum's composer in residence. These contemporary works are juxtaposed -- yet inextricably linked -- with choral music by Lassus, Victoria, Purcell and Lotti. The title work, Bates' In The Dark, encapsulates the poignancy of Holy Week, with a new setting of the Tudor poem 'You that have spent the silent night' by George Gascoigne (1525-1577).

In Darkness, and secure, by the secret ladder, disguised, —ah, the sheer grace!— in Darkness and concealment, my house being now all stilled. On that glad night, in secret, for no one saw me, nor did I look at anything, with no other light or guide than the one that burned in my heart. - St. John of the Cross (1542-1592) ABOUT THE WORK: “Dark Night of the Soul was written in 2010, and premiered that year by the Phoenix Chorale. The text, three stanzas from St. John of the Cross’ magical poem Dark Night of the Soul, was suggested to me by Joel Rinsema, Executive Director of the Phoenix Chorale, and I fell in love with its passio...    less

II Sing to us, cedars; the night-wind is sighing, Is wooing, is pleading, to hear you reply; And here in your arms we are restfully lying, And longing to dream to your soft lullaby; While we swing, swing, And your branches sing, And we drowse to your dreamy whispering. III Sing to us, cedars; your voice is so lowly, Your breathing so fragrant, your branches so strong; Our little nest-cradles are swaying so slowly, While zephyrs are breathing their slumberous song. And we swing, swing, While your branches sing, And we drowse to your dreamy whispering. http://www.choirplace.com...    less
