For your listening pleasure

Along with the rest of the Choir of the Queen's College Oxford, I shall be appearing on BBC Radio 3's Choral Evensong program later this month.

The initial broadcast in the UK will be on BBC Radio 3 at 4pm GMT on Wednesday 23rd December 2009 and the program will be repeated at 4pm GMT on Sunday 27th December 2009. As well as listening on the radio in the UK, for those both in and outside the UK you can also listen to BBC Radio 3 live online via the BBC website and individual programs (such as the one featuring the choir) are available on demand via the website for -- I think -- up until a week after the repeat broadcast. This last option is particularly convenient for those located in a time zone not conducive to listening to the live broadcast.

The music will be mainly Iberian renaissance polyphony:

Versicle and Response: Deus in adjutorium (Padilla)
Rorate caeli desuper (Guerrero)
Psalms: 110, 147 - Dixit Dominus (Padilla), Lauda Jerusalem (Patiño)
First Lesson: Isaiah 55
Office Hymn: The Angel Gabriel (Basque trad., arr. Pettman)
Magnificat (Morales)
Second Lesson: Matthew 1:18-23
Nunc Dimittis (Coelho)
Homily: Prof. Christopher Rowland
Anthems: (1) Ave Maria (de Cristo); (2) Pastores, si nos queréis (Guerrero); (3) O magnum mysterium (Victoria)
Alma redemptoris mater (Fernandez)
Verbum caro factum est (Lobo)
Organ Voluntary: Tiento y discurso de segundo tono (Correa de Araujo)
