Yet another piece from Robert Hebble's collection titled "For the Masses" (a play on words to indicate it is a collection of works based on melodies used during Catholic Masses).
This piece is incredibly beautiful and contemplative; someone once described one of my recordings as "The sort of music you would feel priviliged to hear all alone late at night in a darkened Cathedral". This piece, to me, deserves the exact same accolade.
This piece really shines on the Billerbeck (dry and even slightly truncated, if you can believe it). The acoustic is so luscious and the 32' so soft that it all just really pulls together.
A fun little quirk about this piece is that for the last few bars he splits the music across three staves for the manuals and your right hand is required to play on the choir and the great simultaneously. You hear a nice little dialogue between the mutation and the HW 8' bourdon.
