A collection of sacred music by Arvo Pärt, Julia Wolfe, Caroline Shaw, interspersed with songs from the Laudario di Cortona, Italy. The six pieces by Arvo Pärt can be described as having been composed 'lately'. The six laude sung here are part of an extensive collection that was compiled during the 13th century, nowadays known as the Laudario di Cortona. Its location for nearly five centuries is unclear, and its rediscovery in 1876 was a considerable piece of luck. Caroline Shaw is a New York composer who also regularly performs as singer and violinist. Her Partita for 8 Voices won the Pulitzer Prize in 2013. Ars Nova first performed music by Julia Wolfe when they premiered her Thirst in 2009. This was part of Water, a larger commission from Bang On A Can composer. Guard My Tongue was written around the same time, with text derived from Psalm 34.
