the album cover for Sospiri - Lamentations Through the Ages: Lost City

The Lamentations of Jeremiah may be unremittingly sad, but they have had a deep resonance for composers throughout the ages. This is a collection that reflects that diversity-from John Mundy's setting, which highlights the grave concern over schisms in the Catholic church of the sixteenth century, through to Rudolph Mauersberger's motet, which mourns the destruction of the city of Dresden in 1945. Two new pieces were commissioned especially for this project, and are recorded here for the first time: John Duggan's haunting set of three Lamentations for choir, trumpet and solo soprano; and Cecilia McDowall's exotic and powerful The Lord is Good, which was shortlisted for a BASCA award in 2012.

Tracklist:

  1. The Lord Is Good
  2. O Vos Omnes
  3. Lamentations
  4. Sacred And Profane, Op. 91: Sacred And Profane, Op. 91: No. 7. Ye That Pasen By
  5. Lamentations: Lamentation I
  6. Lamentations: Lamentation II
