An eclectic mix of five modern songs on an EP

My heart is a holy place
Patricia Van Ness has rearranged and extended the beautiful ‘Cor meum est templum sacrum’ for The
King’s Singers to become ‘My heart is a holy place’.

A haunting piece written for The King’s Singers in 2009 by Graham Lack with text by writer/poet Mervyn

British classical radio presenter and former rock guitarist, John Brunning, wrote a simple setting of ‘Pie Jesu’
three years ago, and it became an instant hit in the UK.

Bluegrass band Nickel Creek’s song. 'Out of the Woods' has great harmonies, a wonderful folksy melody
and a mesmeric improvisation section. Arranged by Philip Lawson.
 
Hallelujah
One of a huge number of hit songs from the Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen, arranged here by
Philip Lawson.
