ROYAL WEDDING MUSIC FROM DIVINE ART RECORDS/BRANDON MUSIC
Brandon, VT -
Royal Wedding Music available online!
It was confirmed only this morning on the official British Royal Blog that as a central part of the Wedding Service for Prince William and Kate Middleton, after the Anthem, the choirs will sing ‘Ubi Caritas' by Welsh composer Paul Mealor. Mr Mealor is Reader in Composition at the University of Aberdeen, but his composing studio is on the Isle of Anglesey, North Wales, close to the home of the royal couple.
For the service, because only religious texts are permitted, Mealor set the words of the ancient hymn Ubi Caritas to a recent composition titled ‘Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal' The original work, in which Mealor set poems on the subject of the Rose, the emblem of love and purity, has been recorded by the Con Anima Chamber Choir, conducted by the composer, and is to appear on an album of choral music (“Madrigali:Fire and Roses”) to be issued in the summer by Divine Art Records.
As part of the wedding celebrations, Divine Art have released a digital-only EP of ‘Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal' which is available from today on iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, Napster, Classics Online and all other good digital music sellers including www.divineartrecords.com/CD/29002info.htm
The catalog number is dds29002.
