Safety

Safety description

Pleas for protection in classic High Renaissance style (from Gesualdo, Croce and others), then refracted through a modern prism (Paul Schoenfield’s Psalm 86 in Hebrew). Features the beautiful anthem One thing I have desired by great and underrated British composer Herbert Howells and a serene Psalm 23 from Denmark's Carl Nielsen.
