I Saw Eternity is a choral work for mixed voices with soloists from within the choir. It was first performed by the London Philharmonic Choir in 2003. It is based on a text by Henry Vaughan, ' I saw Eternity the other night Like a great Ring of pure and endless light, All calm , as it was bright......', a text which makes this piece suitable for a variety of contexts, both sacred and secular.
The Faber Choral Signature Series introduces a wealth of new or recently written choral music to choirs in search of fresh repertoire. The series draws in a rich diversity of living composers and includes both lighter and more challenging contemporary works, offering a thrilling array of varied styles.
