Great choral settings of the psalms
Celebrate the ancient words of the psalms with us, and two birthdays! Sir John Rutter is 80 this year, Orlando Gibbons a little older, dying 400 years ago this year.

Orlando Gibbons O clap your hands
Handel Lift up your heads (from Messiah)
Herbert Howells Like as the hart
Felix Mendelssohn I waited for the Lord
Claudio Monteverdi Beatus vir, Cantate Domino
