Recenzii

Gabriel Jackson describes his music as essentially contemplative. This is true of both responses, which have a fluid but calm quality throughout. Through voice quality and varying tonalities - not to mention exquisite harmony - Jackson plays with different textures and colours to illustrate his text. These are challenging pieces, not least in respect of the control needed to sustain long lines and true intonation; but for the choir who could cope, they would be aworthwhile alternative to the Matin and Vesper Responsories by Palestrina.
Gabriel Jackson, who has five works in New Horizons opening salvo, has been steadily building a reputation since the early '90s as one of the UK's most accomplished writers of choral music . . . Jackson's assimilation of a range of influences and choral experience has resulted in a highly personal and rewarding idiom that can offer something to choirs of pretty much any ability level. It is good to see OUP making his work more widely available.
