Antiphonary (score)

The Berkeley Family antiphonary is a beautiful book of texts and chants dating back to 1457, and this piece traces an historical timeline of Berkeley Castle's history, incorporating Vivaldi arias from an opera discovered at the castle in 2002. The music has moments of hymn-like reflection as well as great triumph and features the flugel horn.
