Prelude on a Hymn of Praise - James Curnow

Prelude on an Irish Folk Tune - Philip Sparke

The Irish folk tune, which appears towards the end of the piece, is Slane, a hymn tune version of the much older folk melody The Banks of the Bann. In Prelude on an Irish Folk Tune, fragments of the folk tune hint at what is to come later in the piece, but another folk-like tune is predominant. This later acts as a descant to Slane when it finally appears. Add a little Sparke sparkle to any concert with this lovely interlude.

Prelude on Laudes Domini - Douglas Court

The opening bars of this piece seek to portray the dawning of each new day, as it continues to flower and unfold before us. Drawing inspiration from the hymn of Joseph Barnby, the composer musically illustrates the text:'When morning gilds the skies,my heart awaking criesmy Jesus Christ is praised'
