About

Sir Karl Jenkins continues his 75th birthday year celebrations with a brand-new album, Miserere: Songs of Mercy and Redemption, released on 11th October. The new work, released on Decca Records, is dedicated to all who have suffered or perished during the conflicts in the Middle East over the last 70 years. Jenkins was motivated by the desperate situation for the millions of people displaced and impacted by the cruel effects of war and hoped the healing and uniting powers of music could be used to bring together people from different religions.

Conducted by Stephen Layton directing his twice Grammy-nominated choir Polyphony, Miserere features Gramophone award-winning countertenor Iestyn Davies and ‘rising star’ South African cellist Abel Selaocoe, a recent recipient of the Sir Karl Jenkins Music Award in association with Classic FM.

Reviews

December 2019

This is music of consolation, set in a popular idiom, that is surprisingly upbeat in tone given its dedication. The sounds of the casbah fill the air in the opening movement as the singer Belinda Sykes calls for mercy in ancient tongues, accompanied by instruments particular to the region. The blend of the old and the new is ingeniously woven together in many instances.
