S S Wesley: Cast me not away from Thy presence, sung by St Peter's Singers of Leeds
Written in 1848 for the Choir of what was then Leeds Parish Church, 'Cast me not away' is a masterpiece in miniature.

Owing much to the polyphonic Work of the Renaissance, the motet is a deeply-felt Work written during Wesley's period of recuperation from a fall whilst out fishing in the North Yorkshire countryside at Helmsley. The chromatic clashes at the words "the bones which Thou hast broken" are almost certainly reflective of the pain the composer had suffered, for his leg was badly broken and he walked ever after with a noticeable limp.
This performance was recorded in Leeds Minster on Sunday 28th April 2013 during the recital of 'Music with Minster connections' sung by St Peter's Singers of Leeds, directed by Dr Simon Lindley.
Leeds Minster, formerly Leeds Parish Church, has a long and distinguished musical history. The list of organists and past organists of the Parish Church of St Peter-at-Leeds is outstanding. 'Music with Minster connections' celebrated both this heritage and the status of Leed... less

The Virtual choir of “When Neruda Dreamed” singing "Cuando Neruda Soñó", a Work written by Santiago Veros.
The history of the Work:
Cuando Neruda Soñó is dedicated to people who want to find inner peace in order to share the best version of oneself with the people around them.
This piece is an adventure of someone who is disconnected from himself and his environment, and undertakes a journey in total solitude, into an immense space carrying all of his uncertainties. It is that space that teaches him to find himself, to ask questions and reflect. In the process, he may get lost, but he knows that he will struggle to find the way, and ends up revealing to himself a truth that transcends him. A truth so powerful that it dazzles him. It makes him see life where he once saw loneliness.
Finally, feeling at peace and harmony with himself, he finds the help of great guides who sail at his side. This piece leaves us with the teaching that we will never be completely alone. Only... less
