About

for SATB unaccompanied This beautiful and spacious Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis setting of the Canticle of Mary is pure Jackson. Alternating stripped back, plainchant-style sections with homorhythmic passages for full choir, this music possesses an understated emotional intensity. The glorious key changes at the end of both the Magnificat and the Nunc Dimittis are spine-tingling. Appropriate for both Evensong and concert performance, this piece is well within the reach of most choirs.

Reviews

Jackson uses his own version of fauxbourdon with an alternation of decorated chant-like monody and plain-spoken homophony. The decorated chant could not be by anyone else than Jackson, expressive and direct with a lovely quirk to the decorations, and his homophonic passages bring a poignantly expressive dissonance to bear. You can pick up influences, such as Arvo Part and James MacMillan, but all are woven into Jackson's overall style. saxophone and choir
