Karl Jenkins: Te Deum and Sacred Songs premieres in Liverpool
(October 2008)
Following the premiere of Karl Jenkins’s Stabat Mater in March, Liverpool also plays host to the launch of the composer’s new Te Deum on 30 November at Philharmonic Hall. The 15-minute canticle setting, scored for chorus and a small orchestra of two trumpets, strings and five percussionists, will be premiered under the baton of the composer. Jenkins is the Patron of the Liverpool Welsh Choral, who commissioned the new work to celebrate the city's European Capital of Culture year. The Liverpool concert also includes the first performances of Sacred Songs, a new seven-movement choral suite drawn from Jenkins’s most popular works including The Armed Man, Requiem and Stabat Mater. The composer’s preferred scoring for the accompaniment of Sacred Songs is flute, cor anglais, horn, strings and organ, though alternatives for organ and strings, and for organ only are also available.
A new vocal score of Sacred Songs is now on sale and Te Deum will be published in early 2009.
The US premiere of the Te Deum is already scheduled for Lincoln Center in New York on 19 January 2009.
Stabat Mater continues to travel widely, and can currently be heard on an eight-venue UK tour conducted by the composer and John Gibbons, running through to 15 November. The work’s US premiere is scheduled for Lincoln Center in New York on 19 January and the German premiere takes place in Augsburg on 29 March.
