Text Let not your heart be troubled: Ye believe in God, Believe also in me. I will not leave your comfortless: I will come to you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give you. I don’t give you as the world gives. Don’t let your heart be troubled And don’t be afraid. John, 14: 1, 18, 27.
Performance Time: c. 6:15
About the Work For this composition, I have chosen three phrases from Jesus' speech to his disciples in the Last Supper, collected in the Gospel of John. In the work there is a struggle between two scales, B aeolian mode, which represents uncertainty and fear but also closeness and intimacy, and D major, which symbolizes peace, serenity and sweetness. The writing combines the syllabic style –reserved for the biblical story, with clusters in the words ‘comfortless’, ‘troubled’ and ‘afraid’– with the melismatic style –which appears enhancing the words ‘peace’ and ‘you’–. Structured in two large sections, the second contains the same elements as the first, but expressed in a more emphatic way. Peace I leave with you was premiered by NEOVOCALIS, conducted by myself, on 21th July 2019 within the MERCY & LOVE project. Rafael Sánchez Mombiedro
About me I am an active choral composer, arranger, director, and a professor of Improvisation based in Valencia, Spain. Choral music has been my passion since my childhood. I started my musical training in my hometown as a chorister at the “Escolanía de la Virgen”. The training of those years still influences my compositions (which are mostly sacred) and arrangements for choir and piano. In 2003, I founded the all-professional chamber choir, NEOVOCALIS, which specializes in contemporary choral music. The ensemble has premiered most of my compositions under my direction.
