About
for SATB, with organ and unaccompanied Cantica Nova is an outstanding collection of motets by contemporary British composers. The pieces present a kaleidoscope of different styles and sonorities, united in their ability to communicate fresh ideas and the skill of their vocal writing. Encompassing a wide range of texts, with settings of some of the great hymns of the Church alongside little known, rarely set texts, the collection will be welcomed by concert and church choirs seeking innovative and exciting contemporary repertoire.

Awards and reviews
Oxford University Press, one of the world's major publishers of choral music, has done it again . . . both Blackwell and OUP are to be congratulated for such an innovative and comprehensive addition to choral publishing. The collection bears the OUP hallmark: the clearly laid-out scores with keyboard reductions . . . It should be emphasised that all the pieces are worthy of thorough examination and it is to be hoped that choral directors and singers alike will explore this vast treasure-trove for themselves . . . Cantica Nova not only provides singers and choral directors with an outstanding resource but is a fascinating insight into choral composing in the UK today
