John Tavener's Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis 'Collegium Regale' were composed in 1986, commissioned by Stephen Cleobury for the choir of King's College, Cambridge.
The standard text of the Magnificat (Song of Mary, Luke 1: 46-55) is augmented by words of the Orthodox troparion (Byzantine hymn) to the Mother of God. less
