Jo Kent & BBC South Today News broadcast “live” from St Peter’s Church, Parkstone with artist, composer & musical director Richard McLester and Rector Father Michael Camp.
The artistic installation, titled Lumin-Essence is a giant advent wreath (measuring 4 metres in diameter) evoking memories of the fallen during the world wars.
Taken from the Album The Road To Golgotha, this is the official music video to “We Have Fallen (Over The Edge Of The World).
Written, produced and performed by Richard McLester, the film features vocalist Alexandra Wehlau, as well as actors Ann Balaam and Hannah Pool.
The Road To Golgotha is a feature length CD with music that accompanies Christ from the Last Supper to the Crucifixion and Resurrection. For more information, click here for the website of Richard McLester – http://www.richardmclester.com!.
For Carols By Candlelight 2013 at St Peter’s Parkstone, Richard McLester created a giant tabernacle that raised up out of the congregation.
The tabernacle, which was built in 5 sections included a centre made out of concentric squares which meant that when the structure was raised up, the cloth fell away and revealed a large wooden crib in the centre of the church.
The aim was to invite the community to actively experience walking into the tabernacle and place their cloth into the manger, which many also said reminded them of the stable in Bethlehem…

To that effect, Richard McLester also designed a huge star that hung above the congregation.
Built by Richard and a dedicated team of members from the church youth group and choir, the star provided a stunning visual of shapes and light.
