Spanning 500 years from the exquisite simplicity of Thomas Tallis’ perfect miniature O nata lux through Britten’s jubilant Festival Te Deum to Cheryl Frances-Hoad’s majestic O come let us sing unto the lord, this album celebrates the hope and anticipation that comes with the beginning of a new day. Arise my love perfectly complements Magdalen’s first album on CORO, Peace I leave with you, which celebrates music written for the end of the day.
