Guild	Charles Villiers Stanford was a prolific composer of much instrumental music and opera, but his reputation rests principally with his songs and church music. His services, anthems and motets enriched cathedral music and have maintained their place in the repertory. The three motets were written in 1905 for Alan Gray and the choir of Trinity College, Cambridge. Together they illustrate the essence of his style, with the use of counterpoint, the dramatic and melodic qualities all stemming from his feeling for the words.
