About "Parratt: Psalm 82 "Deus stetit"" by St Paul's Cathedral Choir
Parratt's Psalm 82 sets a scene of divine council, the choir's voices stark and unadorned as a courtroom. The music's austere harmonies and measured pacing convey the gravity of judgment, while a subtle harmonic shift hints at the vulnerability of earthly powers under the gaze of the Most High.
