VOCES8 SCHOLARS 12 October 2022, 7:30pm Recorded Live at St Bride's, Fleet Street London, UK This concert is part of the JAM MASTERCLASS SERIES in COMPOSITION in collaboration with the VOCES8 Foundation featuring 6 world premieres. To find out more about JAM enabling, promoting and supporting emerging composers, please visit: www.jamconcert.org Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum. Benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus. Sancta Maria, Mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and in the hour of our death. Amen. The Ave Maria or “Hail Mary” is a traditional Christian prayer addressing Mary, the mother of Christ. Jack Ledger-Dowse’s Ave Maria is a rich and meditative setting of the text for choir. It seeks to convey the mystical and other-worldly qualities of the text through its rich harmonic language, with moments of real intensity and others of tranquil spaciousness. The piece was originally conceived in early 2021, with a previous version for male voices being premiered by Portsmouth Cathedral Choir in June 2021. Since, it has been revitalised, in places reworked and scaled up to a full SATB choir.

An arrangement of 'The Spring' - originally for female vocal quartet for four clarinets.

This piece depicts the sadness, stress and overwhelming loneliness endured by Pascoe as he faces two 􏰁res at once. Not only is he at the centre of a media storm surrounding alleged dubiousness about his indigenous heritage, but he is trying to defend his come against wildfires which engulfed his home province of East Gippsland in 2019. He is alone, against the fire. This piece was premiered on December 3rd, 2020 by Jerome Ness at the Royal College of Music, London as part of the Head On! Photo Festival Project.

A vocal quartet for two sopranos and two mezzo sopranos based on 'A Spring Morning' by John Clare. Sop.1: Alex Cooper Sop. 2: Amy Heptinstall Mezzo 1: Saffron Doherty Mezzo 2: Esmée D The work was premiered at the Royal College of Music in November 2022. Recording made on 13th March 2022. The Spring comes in with all her hues and smells, In freshness breathing over hills and dells; O’er woods where May her gorgeous drapery flings, And meads washed fragrant by their laughing springs. Fresh are new opened flowers, untouched and free From the bold rifling of the amorous bee. The happy time of singing birds is come, And Love’s lone pilgrimage now finds a home; Among the mossy oaks now coos the dove, And the hoarse crow finds softer notes for love. The foxes play around their dens, and bark In joy’s excess, ’mid woodland shadows dark. The flowers join lips below; the leaves above; And every sound that meets the ear is Love. John Clare - 1793-1864
