for SATB and organ
Francis Jackson's anthem 'Most glorious Lord of life' for SATB choir and organ was commissioned by the Edington Music Festival in 2009. The composer, aged 103, has now revised the score for its publication. His typically colourful harmonic style is combined with elegant vocal lines to produce a highly sympathetic rendering of Edmund Spencer's text.
