Die gefeierte musikalische Stimme von Francis Pott ist eine von ungewöhnlicher Beredsamkeit und Ernsthaftigkeit geprägte. Diese Einspielung präsentiert Weltersteinspielungen von zwei bedeutenden Stücken. At First Light ist ein Gedächtniswerk in Form einer Reihe langsamer Meditationen, die eine überbordende Motette umgeben, mit wortlosen Kommentaren eines klagenden Cellos. Word, mit seiner bedeutenden Rolle für die Orgel und der Einbeziehung von Texten des walisischen Priesters und Dichters R. S. Thomas, offenbart die Betrachtung des Evangeliums in einer postmodernen Welt.
Francis Pott’s acclaimed musical voice is one of uncommon eloquence and seriousness of purpose. This recording presents world premiere recordings of two major pieces. At First Light is a memorial work which takes the form of a series of slow meditations surrounding an exuberant motet, with wordless commentary from a lamenting cello. Word, with its significant role for the organ and the inclusion of texts by the Welsh priest and poet R. S. Thomas, reveals Gospel contemplation in a postmodern world.
