A setting of Padre Pio's “Prayer after Holy Communion” commissioned by the Genesis Foundation and first performed by The Sixteen in June 2008 at Westminster Cathedral, London. Padre Pio (1887-1968) was, in his lifetime, a controversial and holy man, and was canonized St. Piusof Pietrelcina in 2002. He is known unofficially as “the patron s aint of stress relief,” in accord with his most famous dictum, “Pray, hope and don't worry.” Will Todd sets an English versionof the text by Ben Dunwell; by turns gentle and intense, the resulting choral prayer captures the reflective and emotional core of Pio's words.Duration: ca. 6:30.
