?O Lux Beata? (?O Blessed Light?) was commissioned by The Fotheringhay Singers (Marius Carney conductor). The work a setting of a 4th-century hymn text ascribed to St Ambrose of Milan contrasts a plainsong style melody over the organ pedals with the rich and lyrical outpouring of larger choral sections. Although challenging in places the subtle chromaticism and occasional lush close-harmonies create a very powerful and impressive anthem for general sacred use (the text is particularly fitting for evening use or on Trinity Sunday) but also as a striking addition to a concert programme.?O Lux Beata? is featured on Tenebrae?s album ?Lux et Veritas?.
