Awake, my soul!

Awake, my soul! from St Mary’s Runwell was livestreamed and can be watched at https://www.facebook.com/WickfordandRunwellCofE/videos/141883318872982.

Awake, my soul! is a unique event combining performances of new sacred music with discussion. Performed by acclaimed violinist Emma-Marie Kabanova, this interactive event features new psalm-inspired works written by an international collection of Jewish and Christian composers. It was curated and produced by Deus Ex Musica with Delvyn Case presenting.

PROGRAMME
  • Introduction Delvyn Case
  • *My heart within me is desolate (Psalm 143:4) Judith Lang Zaimont
  • Why do you bury your face in the pillow? (Psalm 44) Ng Yu Hng
  • *Psalm 133 Delvyn Case
  • *Ura (Psalm 57) Michel Klein
The performance of each piece was followed by an informal discussion moderated by Delvyn Case.

*These three works appear on SEARCH ME, O GOD, a unique recording that brings together over a dozen world-class composers and performers to explore the psalms through contemporary music. This interfaith and ecumenical project is a collaboration among artists representing Jewish, Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox traditions. Available on all streaming platforms, or listen for free at www.deus-ex-musica.com/search-me-o-god.
