LEIGHTON CD: Kenneth Leighton's distinctive compositional voice is characterized by rich, lush harmonies, subtle dissonance, rhythmic energy & a lilting, angular lyricism. Pithy thematic ideas & syncopated rhythms are allied to a brilliant mastery of counterpoint & unique sense of melody borne of a lifelong love of hymns, chorale & chant. This collection features the two contrasting Canticle Settings, the Easter Sequence & more.
