This standalone edition of Nunc dimittis is adapted from a set of Latin canticles which were first sung in Canterbury Cathedral during evensong in 2018.

This edition has a more restrained Gloria Patri for use during compline, which is becoming increasingly popular amongst some university chapel choirs and elsewhere. It would also work well as a Candlemas motet.

Scored for unaccompanied SSATB choir, the setting is both expansive and lyrical.
