King's College Choir - Cambridge

Glorious!!
An earlier LP from King's in the 70's under the then Conductor Sir David Willcocks touched upon some of these choral'gems'. The present conductor Stephen Cleobury continues this tradition with some of the same and several 20th century anthems. Glorious singing of the ...

Beautiful Harmonies and Vocalizations
Like another reviewer, I am thrilled at Lo! He Comes, as well as with the unfamiliar setting for Hark the Herald Angels Sing and the beautiful Sing We the Virgin Mary. If you love beautiful vocalizations, especially rare soprano-alto harmonizations, this is the album ...

Continuum, 1993
Appropriately heaven bound
This is heavenly. Not only 'tis the music -- some of which has been recorded many times -- but mostly the choral texture (sounding always towards the white-voice of those performing) and the perfect acoustic of the recording: open and spacious, as choral music from ...

An interesting compilation
Don't know how you got here, but good digging. This album is a sampler from United records, a company out of the UK. It contains a fairly good cross section of 20th century composers. Many pieces stand out - Keiko Abe's, the Shostakovich piece, the Schnittke sonata. ...

a late twentieth century operatic jewel
This opera had a brilliantly successful initial run of performances in the UK in 1987, and came to Santa Fe shortly after, where its detached irony, musical economy and theatrical sleight of hand did not seem to go down so well. This CD from a single live concert ...
