MISSA CANTORIS
by Helen Williams
Setting the Common Worship words of Holy Communion.
For solo voice and organ, this was written during coronavirus choral restrictions, it works when the choir is on leave after a festival. It also permits sharing the solo line between different choir sections.
PSALM CHANTS
by Helen Williams
Four settings, to suit psalms that are joyful, mysterious, searching or serene.


VITIS VERA (THE TRUE VINE)
by Nigel Williams

SATB Motet on the text of John 15, in Latin.
Optional doubling with organ or also suitable for viols.
LOVE IS THE KEY
Music by Helen Williams
Words by Christina Rossetti
SATB with two-bar bass solo.
The poem '
Song for the least of all saints' alludes to Jesus' post-resurrection appearance to St Peter. It is especially appropriate for Easter season and St Peter's day but her concluding words, "I love Thee" let it fit into almost any act of worship.


MELLITUS' CHALLENGE
music by Helen Williams
text by Nigel Williams, after Bede

SATB with mezzo and tenor soli. Accompaniment optional.
Alludes to the story told by Bede, when St Mellitus advocated acceptance of baptism as preparation for the sacrament of communion.
