for double SATB choir unaccompanied My prayer is a technical ’tour de force’, meticulously sculpted from the distilled essence of Purcell’s original and yet always recognizably Chilcott. The music is involved, passionate, and frequently contrapuntal. This is a beautiful and convincing work imbued with an unsettling melancholy.

This heartfelt setting is built upon a haunting melody of folk-like simplicity, underpinned throughout by a lyrical and independent accompaniment. An orchestral accompaniment is available on hire.

for SSS and keyboard This is a beautiful, simple, and memorable tune supported by a distinctive organ ostinato in 5/8 time. It combines all the immediacy and freshness of a folksong with the deep spiritual sincerity of an anthem. The vocal writing is both imaginative and easy.
