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.

La noche de mil noches y una noche,
la sombra de mil sombras y un latido,
el agua de mil aguas que cayeron,
el fuego destapando sus embudos,
la ceniza vestida de medusa,
la tierra dando un grito.
Hombre soy, por qué nací en la tierra?
Dónde está mi mortaja?
Ésta es la muerte?
The night of a thousand and one nights
the shadow of a thousand shadows and a heartbeat,
the water of a thousand waters falling,
fire uncovering funnels,
ashes dressed up like Medusa,
the Earth's lamentation.
I am a man. Why was I born to earth?
Where is the shroud?
Is this death? less
