Description

Ross writes: These five unaccompanied motets for a choir of female (originally children’s) voices were extracted from my nativity play Quem Quaeritis (text devised by Graham Williams), which I composed in 1967 while still a student in the Music Department of The University of Adelaide.

The settings are of mediæval English texts, and the influence of Peter Maxwell Davies, who had been my teacher in the previous year, is often evident. (The Youtube videos are for No.2 Hail, Quene of Heven, No.3 The Lorde that lay in Asse Stalle and No.5 Nowell in Bethlehem.)
