The Tonus Peregrinus octet exists to perform ancient and modern works interspersed with music written by its director. The two-way influence between consort and composer is palpable. The resulting compositions are as much theological statements as stand-alone pieces of music and as such they bear comparison with some of the monuments of, for instance, the music of the English Reformation. Specific musical germs such as false relations and the use of carefully controlled dissonances to create suspensions provide obvious aural connections with the music of the sixteenth century. But there are other musical devices such as medieval hocket, psalmodic chanting, jazz-infused rhythmic cells, and close-harmony effects which combine to create a simultaneously antiquated yet modern musical style.\\r\u003cbr\u003eBuilding on the success of their first Hyperion release Seven Letters, this disc contains contains further dazzling, ecstatic, arresting, thought-provoking works, sung with limpid beauty by Tonus Peregrinus.\u003cp\u003eThe Peace of Jerusalem - Antony Pitts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSanctus - Antony Pitts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBenedictus - Antony Pitts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA day is like a thousand years\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e...and a thousand years like one day\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy Dove - Antony Pitts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore Abraham was, I AM\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI AM the Bread of Life\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI am the resurrection and the life\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Am The Light Of The World\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Am the True Vine\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI AM the Door - I AM the Good Shepherd\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI AM Alpha and Omega\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55148256395649,"sku":"764321","price":13.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61Sc2MiWTnL._SL1500_971c7241-e8c3-4eab-aa4f-d3beaa351002.jpg?v=1767820789","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/764321-1","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
