Trailer – Splashes of Ink

Music

Launching this Autumn…

Surveying choral compositions throughout the history of the world, I have never encountered music that starts with Genesis and ends with Revelation. This is 2025 AD, and over the next ten weeks I will be posting on Splashes of Ink the ten movements that are:

The Choral Ne Plus Ultras, Opus 10

Be prepared for

No. 1: ALMIGHTY GOD SAID… The creation of Heaven and Earth
No. 2: He is the Image of the Invisible God An exposition on the second person of the Trinity
No. 3: The Separating Veil is Torn! One aspect of Good Friday
No. 4: Christ the Rising Star a.k.a. Blink to the Moon! The brightness, and freshness, of Easter Sunday
No. 5: The Shulammite Woman The centre pages of the Bible finds ‘Songs of Solomon,’ and the halfway point of this composition is his favourite wife ‘The Shulammite Woman’
No. 6: My Eternal Peace After a night with one’s bride, there is peace in the morning
No. 7: The Alternative Three Magi! Would one expect smiles, laughter and joy on the morning of one’s honeymoon – even the jocular? You will not be disappointed, here!
No. 8: Jauchzet Frohlocket – After J. S. Bach If one’s plans for married bliss were thwarted, declare a holy war
