Path of Miracles
[Review : City of London Festival] Nick Breckenfield 2005 - Joby Talbot's new Tenebrae commission heralded as a major new hit
From it’s opening eerie rising vocal glissando (a Taiwanese singing effect called pasiputput) for the gentlemen of Nigel Short’s Tenebrae, to the final distribution of the pilgrims having reached Finisterre, west of Santiago – when the singers disappear from the audience’s view, singing and chanting into the distance until all that is left is silence, Joby Talbot’s ambitious a cappella Path of Miracles is little short of a musical miracle itself. Postponed from its original première date of 7 July because of the bomb atrocities that hit London earlier that day, it was heartening that both the City of London Festival, Tenebrae and the church authorities of St Bartholomew the Great were able to re-schedule the première so quickly, and for two performances as originally planned. While this meant that Evensong was cancelled to hold the first performance, the fact that the performances were on a Sunday rather than the original Thursday seemed perfectly apt. Audiences remembered the fatalities of 7/7 beforehand in silent contemplation and then in prayer before each performance.

The Dying Swan
Reviewed: Gramophone 2/2003, Barry Witherden
Commendable restraint pays dividends in music that is often moving and beautiful What immediately impressed me about these pieces was his control, the economy and restraint of his writing. The materials and processes he uses are generally simple and transparent, but effective. The results are frequently moving, and often beautiful. similarities…, an elegy for Fred Hodder, a violinist who died last year at the age of 20, features particularly sensitive, tonally expressive playing from Everton Nelson and Chris Worsey. In Blue Cell, Talbot avoids the tediously virtuosic shtick commonly associated with writing for all-saxophone groups, producing one of the most credible saxophone quartet pieces I’ve heard. If anything can be called typical of Talbot’s writing it is what might paradoxically be described as this virtuoso reserve: although there are occasional examples of instrumental athleticism, as in the First String Quartet, the bulk of the music develops slowly and slightly, stretching song forms across ostinati or repeated chord-patterns, permitting close and leisurely scrutiny of each event. This puts a different kind of pressure on the performers, and the players on this album meet the challenge admirably. Barry Witherden - Gramphone Magazine 2/2003
