The Te Deum, with its expansive, leaping opening melody, ranges widely in key, plunging off unexpectedly into A flat halfway through without ever losing its thread. Wesley's characteristic suspensions and swooping melodies give the music an emotional impetus, whether that be of elation or penitence.
Matthew Greenall, The Singer, May 2011
for S solo, SSATB & organ
This edition celebrates the 200th anniversary of the composer's birth. The distinguished Wesley scholar, Peter Horton, has worked from the original folio edition of 1844. It displays Wesley's adventurous harmony and use of wide-ranging keys in a similar way to the Evening Canticles in E (CMSR53).
