Listen or buy this album:
A companion piece to Bach’s Magnificat BWV 243, Clive Osgood’s work follows a similar structure and emotional journey, couched in contemporary jazz and Latin-fused tonalities and rhythms. The opening movement sets out the composer’s grand intentions, but the more modest movements, such as the Quia respexit are the most affecting.
