(Revelation 21) Sung at Canterbury Cathedral during our Royal School Of Church Music Summer Course in 1986, under Martin How. I (David W Solomons) was one Of the altos. John Huntley - a fellow alto - recorded this performance.  less

The Odes Of Solomon are believed to have been written around the year 100 A.D., and include strong parallels to the Dead Sea Scrolls. Scholars have debated whether the Odes should be considered Jewish, Christian or Gnostic, and whether they were first written in Greek, Hebrew or Syriac. Early Christian writings refer to and quote from them. A Syriac manuscript containing the text Of most Of the Odes was discovered in 1909 by the English scholar J. Rendel Harris, and other partial texts in various languages have also been found. There are 42 Odes. Some fragments are still missing from Odes I and III, and no part Of Ode II has yet been found. For these choral settings, I selected text from four Of the Odes Of Solomon which I found particularly compelling. The anonymous translation I have used comes from The Gnostic Society Library.  less
