James Whibourn: The Wounds (Vocal Score)

The Wounds was expertly composed by British composer James Whitbourn, for SATB chorus, Speaker, Violin, Cello, and Organ. This selection includes the full Vocal score. Whitbourn's international reputation as a composer began very early on as a programme maker at the BBC.

“The Wounds is intended as a devotional work and is best heard in the context of a liturgical event in - or close to - Passiontide.Each section continues from the previous one without pause to create a seamless whole.” James Whitbourn

In the January/February 2015 edition of Choir & Organ, Jeremy Summerly writes that 'the honesty anddirectness of the presentation of music and words...will be seriously appealing.'
