Cecilia McDowall Crystal Spheres

This energetic sacred anthem sets a verse from John Milton's 1629 ode 'On the Morning of Christ's Nativity' and would be suitable as a celebratory anthem year-round. McDowall has mirrored the imagery of the text with bell-like melodic shapes and ebullient rhythms. Crystal Spheres was first performed by The Sixteen, conducted by Harry Christophers, in April 2022.
