Composer of the Week: Samuel Wesley

on BBC Radio 3

"I am sorry I cannot trace the 'whereabout' of my poor Confitebor, because it is (altogether) the least incorrect of my scrolls and might have had a chance of becoming profitable (if published) to some of my unfortunate progeny." David Byers introduces
Wesley's setting of Psalm 111. With Anthony Finigan as the composer.
Confitebor tibi,
Domine Alison Hargan (soprano) Anne Collins (contralto) Justin Lavender (tenor) Michael George (bass) BBC Singers
