Novo profusi gaudio is a vibrant Christmas motet, setting a medieval text that combines English, Latin, and French words. This joyful account of the nativity is combined with colourful, exuberant music featuring memorable motifs, rhythmic phrases, and triumphant climaxes. Topped off with an extra layer of character from the organ part, this piece is sure to add sparkle to any service or concert at Christmas time.
Those in the throes of planning their Christmas services and who are looking for a neo-medieval challenge will enjoy the festive 12/8 of Matthew Martin’s Novo profusi gaudio. This carol was first performed last December by the Choir of Westminster Abbey, which gives an indication of the forces and technical know-how required to do the piece justice. Helpfully, the SATB parts don’t divide, but wilful rhythmic confidence is required throughout.
