Margaret Smith Blackburn

Though my singing voice is not what it used to be, I still have a love of choral music and really enjoy hunting around the internet for interesting new or recently composed choral repertoire that, in the past, I might have enjoyed having a go at. I love the atmosphere created by composers like Eric Whitacre, Morten Lauridsen and, especially,

Judith Bingham in works such as The Spirit of Truth. Just from listening to how Bingham weaves her choral lines, you can tell she used to be a singer herself!
