The Protecting Veil : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Protecting Veil ''The Protecting Veil'' is a late 20th-century classical composition for cello and strings by British composer John Tavener. It was on the short list of nominees for the 1992 Mercury Prize. ==Composition history== Completed in 1988, the work was begun in response to a request from cellist Steven Isserlis for a short (10-minute) piece.〔BBC Radio 3's ''(Radio 3 Live in Concert )'' program (broadcast 18 April 2014)〕 It soon developed into a more substantial work, and was subsequently commissioned by the BBC for the 1989 Proms season. Like many of Tavener's compositions, this work reflects the composer's Russian Orthodox religious faith. The inspiration for the piece comes from the Orthodox feast of the Protecting Veil of the Mother of God, which commemorates the apparition of Mary the Theotokos in the early 10th Century at the Blachernae Palace church in Constantinople.
