HAVPCD270 – Cantata for a New Era Dom Sebastian Wolff O.S.B.
The Cantata is Father Sebastian Wolff’s most recent choral work and it marks the Millennium celebrations of the year 2000. Concerned with the extensive plans for country-wide secular celebrations, Father Sebastian became interested in creating something which reflected the true significance of the Millennium year. The text of the Cantata thus focuses on the prophecy, birth, and fulfilment of Christ in a succession of movements for soloists, chorus, organ, and narrator.
