The exuberant chorus from Messiah. The orchestral material is available on hire.

Ave Maria was joint winner of the Concours Europ'een pour Choeurs et Matres de Cath'edrales 1999. Its double choir forces belie its sensitive scoring and taut motivic construction, which is well withi...

These two motets were written at the request of the Park Lane Group. They are both settings of contemplative, religious (but non-liturgical) texts and both are cast in a repetitive, rondeau-like form,...

Christ the Lord Is Risen Today is an arrangement of the Easter hymn tune 'Lyra Davidica'. Not to be confused with Rutter's own composition, Christ the Lord is risen again, published as part of the Joh...
