Carson Cooman: The Revelations of Divine Love
Jonathan Mark Roberts (bass-baritone), Rebecca Henning (soprano), Buttrick Sinfonia, Royal Holloway Choir, University of London, Rupert Gough
The texts for this magnificent oratorio, The Revelations of Divine Love, are adapted primarily from the writings of Julian of Norwich (c. 1342-1416); an excerpt from the Book of Margery Kempe; two poems by Robert Herrick and one by Elizabeth Kirschner. The primary concept underlying this oratorio is the presence of two distinct discourses. One is a sequence taken from Julian's religious visions and the other is a "sonic geography" of Nantucket Island.
