I was honoured to be in the choir that sang this first performance in Canterbury Cathedral in 1986 and I also introduced them to St Michael's Cornhill, where we sang them in the 1990s.
Priest. O Lord, open thou our lips.
Answer. And our mouth shall show forth thy praise.
Priest. O God, make speed to save us.
Answer. O Lord, make haste to help us.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Priest. Praise ye the Lord.
Answer. The Lord's Name be praised.
Priest. The Lord be with you.
Answer. And with thy spirit.
Minister. Let us pray. Lord, have mercy upon us. Christ, have mercy upon us. Lord, have mercy upon us.

From the composer, Gordon Hamilton: during my piano studies, one of my favourite pieces was Michael Tippett's Second Piano Sonata, which uses his disjunct mosaic form: instead of music flowing, through a logical sequence of harmony, melody and tempo, he (and other composers, including Stravinsky, Messiaen and my own teacher Butterley) created tiny fragments of music -- totally contrasting in character -- which cascade into each other: an aural mosaic.
Tra$h Ma$h is a piece made up entirely of musical quotes lifted directly from modern pop songs and mashed together using the Tippet technique (perfect for our 21st century attention spans!)
Deep down, I love trashy pop, and the singers in The Australian Voices are mostly under 21.
