Let All the World

Let all the world by Roxanna Panufnik is a 4-minute choral work for AATTBB which sets George Herbert's Antiphon (I) Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing. It was written during the Covid-19 pandemic for the Choral Scholars of the South West of England for performance in a virtual evensong, due to lockdown conditions. The work includes solos for the choir and the words "we sing" in 12 different languages, including from those parts of the world that were worst hit by the pandemic.

The anthem was commissioned by Esmée Loughlin-Dickenson and her fellow Choral Scholars at Truro Cathedral and dedicated to Choral Scholars Everywhere and was premiered on-line on 28 July 2020.
