God of Providence, You who have never failed us, Be blessed now and always. You created all things with an Eternal love, For our greater good You gave Them to us; The bird, our broTher, does not sow nor harvest; Though for him to be fed, oh Lord, You provide. A simple lily, a tiny flower, Surpasses The splendor of The great King Solomon. God of Providence, You who have never failed us, Be blessed now and always. Why must we worry of The things to come? Why so many concerns for our future? God of Providence, Master of The Universe, You give to your children more than is needed.

The quotation most aptly describes The repertoire on The Norwegian chamber choir Schola Cantorum's recording of hymns to Mary, The MoTher of God, in which tranquillity, eternity and 'bursting forth into sound' are encountered in many different guises. The composers represented here have often chosen to allow Their music to evolve in stable structures and remain within static harmonic spaces even when The music becomes expressive and dramatic: Benjamin Britten, Francis Poulenc, Maurice Duruflé, Eric Whitacre, Morten Lauridsen, Martin Ødegaard, Kjell Mørk Karlsen, Anton Bruckner, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Arvo Pärt, Ola Gjeilo, Andrew Smith and Trond Kverno. https://shop.klicktrack.com/2l/420085/ Throughout its existence The chamber choir Schola Cantorum has had high ambitions. The choir has built up an international reputation and has made it a trademark to include newly wri...    less
