By Voces8. By Barton. Edited by Rumi. Choral Works (Sacred) - Mixed Voices. Edition Peters. Choral Octavo. 12 pages. Duration 00:04:00. Edition Peters #98-EP68740. Published by Edition Peters (PE.EP68740).ISBN 9790300762111. 190 x 272 mm inches. English.
An exquisite 4-minute unaccompanied double choir (SATB-SATB) piece with text by the 13th-century Persian mystic Jalal ad-Din Muhammad, otherwise known as Rumi.
The piece is very still, pure, and possesses a quiet intensity. Slow moving chords overlap and interweave between the two choirs, building to an ecstatic point before falling away to the serene end.
Stephen Barton is a British composer living in Los Angeles who has written music for films and video games including Watch Dogs: Legion, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Apex Legends. He started his musical life as a chorister at Winchester Cathedral.
