T.S. Eliot "O Light Invisible" based on chant
-
Here is my setting of the Gregorian chant 'Decora Lux aeternitatis' to the final chorus in T.S. Eliot's pageant 'The Rock' of 1934. Martin Shaw (of 'All things bright and beautiful') wrote a choral+solo anthem 'The Greater Light' on the same chorus. Note: TSE works will not be out of copyright until 2035.
Edit 25 July: score updated, mp3 mechanical realisation by Cantamus.app
