Magnificat in B flat and in A Major - Stanford

Ever timeless and musically meritorious, as the Canticle of Praise for Evensong or Evening Prayer. We bring two renderings of the Magnificat by Stanford. For 25 Aug 2010, we rejoice over the (Archbishop Prophet) Jeremiah's release from Nebuchadnezzar in Jeremiah 39, the lection this day from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. The judgments of His Majesty were executed on Jerusalem, Judah, Zedekiah the King, Zedekiah's sons, and the entire court of nobles, advisors, and military men. It was the "shakedown," the "getting rolled over," by the Sovereign LORD of Israel.
