About "Ashfield: Psalm 2 "Quare fremuerunt gentes?"" by Andrew Lucas
Ashfield's Psalm 2 setting is a dramatic, almost operatic affair. The choir surges with indignation—'Why do the heathen rage?'—before finding refuge in a tender, trusting close. Lucas shapes the contrast with care: worldly fury against divine calm, a storm breaking over a sanctuary.
