MacMillan: Veni, Veni Emmanuel
more music like this
performed by
Evelyn Glennie (percussion) , James MacMillan (piano) , Ruth Crouch (violin) , Scottish Chamber Orchestra (chamber ensemble) , Scottish Chamber Orchestra , Jukka-Pekka Saraste (conductor)
composed by
James MacMillan
Much of James MacMillan's orchestral music is concerned with matters of Christian theology, and his concerto for percussion and orchestra, Veni, Veni, Emmanuel, may be counted among his most religiously inspired pieces. Outwardly, though, it is ambiguous and difficult to distinguish from purely secular music. Since all of MacMillan's motives and ...

Britannia
(2007)
more music like this
performed by
Atlanta Symphony Orchestra , Donald Runnicles (conductor)
composed by
Benjamin Britten , Edward Elgar , James MacMillan , Mark-Anthony Turnage , Peter Maxwell Davies
You might expect that a disc called Britannia with a photograph of the white cliffs of Dover on the cover would start with a Pomp and Circumstance March by Elgar. And so it does on this 2007 Telarc release with Donald Runnicles leading the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. But while the disc starts with a Pomp and Circumstance March, it's not No. 1 but ...

(2006)
more music like this
performed by
Wayne Marshall (organ) , Wayne Marshall (piano) , BBC Philharmonic Orchestra , James MacMillan (conductor)
composed by
James MacMillan
Listeners familiar with Scottish composer James MacMillan through such acclaimed works as The Confession of Isobel Gowdie (1990) or the Seven Last Words from the Cross (1993) may suspect that his music is usually somber and more than a little dour; indeed, his religious and politically themed pieces are quite earnest, and have given some the ...

composed by
James MacMillan
Inspired by his Catholic faith, James MacMillan often composes intense works on religious themes. Yet unlike his older contemporaries, Sir John Tavener and Arvo Pärt, whose calm meditations and ecstatic paeans reflect their composers' certitude in Christian redemption, MacMillan frequently considers darker subjects and creates a dramatic tension ...

more music like this
performed by
Cecilia Osmond , Mark Dobell , Rebecca Outram , Robert Evans , The Sixteen (choir, chorus)
composed by
James MacMillan , Robert Carver , Robert Ramsey , William Cornysh
British mixed vocal ensemble the Sixteen specializes in a cappella sacred music from the Tudor period, but on this CD the group included a new work, "O bone Jesu," which it commissioned from Scottish composer James MacMillan. MacMillan's piece fits well into the program of early sixteenth century English and Scottish choral music; its tone matches ...

Macmillan: Symphony No. 3 'Silence'; The Confession of Isobel Gowdie
more music like this
performed by
BBC Philharmonic Orchestra , James MacMillan (conductor)
composed by
James MacMillan
Religious matters underlie James MacMillan's works on this 2005 Chandos release, and to greater or lesser extents, the composer has created orchestral requiems that may provoke thoughts of human suffering and final things. The Confession of Isabel Gowdie (1990) draws on the 1662 witchcraft trial of a Scottish woman; in MacMillan's account, she ...
