She weepeth sore, by William Lawes, sung by Quire Cleveland, dir. Ross W. Duffin, at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Akron OH, on Oct. 29, 2017.
“She weepeth sore” is based on texts from the Lamentations of Jeremiah, but it is thought that Lawes may have been inspired by the citation of this particular passage during an outbreak of the plague in London in 1626. Highly chromatic like Ramsey’s “With humble voice” (also in this playlist), “She weepeth sore” was published by composer Henry Lawes during the English Civil War, after his brother William’s death in that conflict. The solo singers at the beginning at Malina Rauschenfels and Nathan Longnecker.
