for SATB unaccompanied
Let nothing trouble you is a striking and atmospheric setting of a prayer by the Spanish mystic, St Teresa of Ávila. This work is both comforting and meditative, reflecting the mood of the text, and the music adds a beautifully haunting quality, through the use of a murmuring two-note motif, widely arching melodies, and reflective imitation. Commissioned by The Genesis Foundation for Harry Christophers and The Sixteen, this piece has been recorded by them on the disc 'O Guiding
Night' (COR16090).
