Patrick Lee E-mail Patrick Lee
 Patrick is prolific composer with a particular interest in choral music. He is offering the opportunity for a choir to perform a complete or even a small movement from his works.
He has written a secular oratorio-type work for soloist, chorus and orchestra. It's called "Sacrifices" and it's designed to be performed for and to focus peoples' attention on the forthcoming centenary of the outbreak of World War 1. The libretto utilises well-known poems by the so-called War Poets.
Click here to read (right-click to download) the pdf of the background to this work as well as the full libretto. There is a copy of the vocal parts with piano accompaniment (only to be used in rehearsal as it's an approximate transcription of the orchestral score) available on the Score Exchange
www.scoreexchange.com/scores/119290.html
The MP3 sound sample which is also available on the same page is a virtual performance of the full score by Sibelius software.

Anne Braley - Contralto/mezzo-soprano www.annebraley.co.uk
 “I’m a mezzo/contralto soloist who loves to work as a soloist with choral societies. My USP as a soloist seems to be where people want a real traditional contralto sound although that's not the limit of my range.
I sing 19th/20th Century music like Mendelssohn, Dvorak, Rossini, Elgar etc.
I love singing Bach and Handel where I might be preferred to a counter-tenor.
