An interview with Jonathan Dove

15 July 2024

Magnificat 4 includes two commissions written specially for the Choir of St John's College; Jonathan Dove's 2022 canticle setting St John's Service, and Judith Weir's 2011 service of the same name.

Winner of the 2008 Ivor Novello Award for classical music, Jonathan Dove CBE has composed a broad range of works and is one of the most successful British composers today.

Jonathan was kind enough to share insights into his St John's Service, the compositional process, and what we can look forward to in the future.
