for SATB and organ Trevor Weston's setting of the Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis, with English text, is a glorious contribution to the rich tradition of choral Evening Services. Written in the canon of Vaughan Williams and Howells, this piece displays Weston's mastery of modes and pentatonic writing, with the resulting work varied and expressive throughout. An independent organ part stylistically melds sections and modulations together, providing a bedrock upon which the piece is built. This piece is suitable for both liturgical and concert settings. Dr. Trevor Weston is an established American composer and educator. His honors include the Arts and Letters Award in Music and a Goddard Lieberson Fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the George Ladd Prix de Paris from the University of California, Berkeley, and residencies from the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts and MacDowell. Deeply inspired by music that mesmerises and entrances its listeners by creating a sense of suspended reality, Weston creates music that is transformative; through which both performer and audience can retreat from the mundane to reflect more profoundly on existence.
