I’m thrilled to have received a new organ work by Phillip Cooke, Professor of Composition at Aberdeen University. Here it is (from a quick live run-through yesterday)…

Composer’s Note…

Dialogue takes the ‘Sanctus’ of my 2017 work Missa Sancti Albanus as the source for a spirited exploration of the material and its possibilities on the organ. It largely follows the shape of the original but expands on each section aiming to realise the inherent potential of the music therein. The main deviation is at the end of the work, where the affirming ending of the Sanctus is replaced with a quiet dissipation of the dialogue between voices and musical material.
