lyrics

Sing a new song to the Lord for he has worked wonders. His right hand and his holy arm have brought salvation. 2. The Lord has made known his salvation; has shown his justice to the nations, He has remembered his truth and love for the house of Israel. 3. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Shout to the Lord all the earth, ring out your joy.

about

This setting of the 98th Psalm (Sing a new song to the Lord for he has worked wonders.) comes originally from my cantata “The Manchester Magnificat”, based on Audrey Vaughan’s poems about the religious and social history of the city.
The oratorio was first performed in Manchester Cathedral in 1994.
This psalm forms the climax of the whole cantata and provides an expression of optimism after the tragedies of the previous sections.
In this “extracted” version, the tragic surroundings of the history remain
in the background and the pure bubbling joy of the psalm itself shines forth.
Enjoy the complex rhythms and let your hair down!
This performance by Daniel Shaw's Composer's Choir (based in Connecticut) is a brilliant rendition of the piece and will, I hope,
encourage other church choirs and concert choirs to consider including it in their repertoire.
