- Joanna Marsh's Evening Prayer is an atmospheric setting of Lancelot Andrewes' prayer from his Preces Privatae (1555-1626). It is a contemplative piece, written in six vocal parts and inspired by Josef Rheinberger's Abendlied. We're excited to be performing this in concert at St Bartholomew-the-Great in London on 13th June. Book your tickets here: tinyurl.com/4w...
This recording was filmed live at St Mary's Church, Ealing in March 2024.

Lord, The day is gone, and I give Thee thanks, O Lord.
Evening is at hand, make it bright unto us.
As day has its evening, so also has life; make it bright unto us.
Cast me not away in the time of age;
Forsake me not when my strength faileth me.
Abide with me, Lord, for it is toward evening,
And the day is far spent of this fretful life.
Let Thy strength be made perfect in my weakness.

God bless you
Wonderful piece, breathtaking performance. The dissonants must be so hard and you make them appear effortless. Thank you so much!
This is absolutely sublime singing. I’m in awe of the balance as well as the beauty of sound.
Une exception incroyable
Purity. In voice, in composition, in dissonance, a lovely piece well performed.
The Tenebrae Choir + Nigel Short = Perfection! Always impressive, always amazing performances 🔥

Those first 25 seconds.....that is witchcraft! Amazing!!
Have you ever performed Vivaldi's Et In Terra Pax? It is divine
This is John Henry Newman's translation of Andrewes' Greek, correct?
Yes it is :)
Is this the same Nigel Short who is a Chess Grandmaster?
Unfortunately not!
@@thetenebraechoir Thank you for the reply, and for the inspiring music.
Thanks! After this there is no Kings Singers for me.
Ahh, I was slow. Political correctness... Sounds even better.
What a silly comment!
I’m struggling to grasp why they would be mutually exclusive of each other…
Nigel Short was a Kings Singer.
