Joby Talbot Path of Miracles
Brett Weymark conductor
Chamber Singers
‘The ultimate message of this music and music generally: hope for humanity and love for this beautiful world in which we live.’ - Joby Talbot
Joby Talbot’s Path of Miracles is a sixty minute a capella choral masterwork that portrays the
experience of a pilgrim traveling the famous Camino de Santiago. Landmarks along the Camino include the church of Roncesvalles and the
cathedrals of Burgos, Leon and Santiago de Compostela. In Path of Miracles, these landmarks correspond
with the titles of the four movements.
