Ilian Lundberg (b. 1993, Sweden) almost exclusively composes sacred choral music, often inspired by models from the Renaissance and Baroque. He won the Summer Singers Composers Competition (Minneapolis) in 2018. His music has been performed in his native Sweden, Norway, France, the UK, and the US.
Thank You God for Grace (SATTBB, 2018) is an homage to Palestrina, particularly the Missa Papae Marcelli. Strict imitation is used in the six parts at first, then more subtle forms of imitation are used. The purity of the music is echoed in the simplicity of the text, which is limited to the five words of the title. |
