Instrumentation
For SATB choir and piano. Credo is a contemporary choral setting of The Creed in Latin. The music contemplates the rich mysteries professed within the Creed, with a powerful, recurring 'Credo' (I believe) as the cornerstone of the work. The piece can be sung as part of a liturgical service or in programmes featuring contemporary sacred repertoire.
The work also forms part of Helen's full Mass - Mass for the Spirit - which is available for purchase.
