African Sanctus is Fanshawe's most successful piece and the subject of an award-winning BBC documentary. It is a thirteen movement composition, blending elements of the Latin Mass and Anglican Liturgy with traditional African music based on recordings that he collected during his expedition down the River Nile in the early 70s.
This is a vocal score for soprano solo, mixed chorus and instrumental ensemble.
