Description

This recording features St Paul?s Cathedral Choir at the peak of their power, performing a yearning sequence of liturgical works that includes some of the best-loved choral works of all time: Mendelssohn?s Hear my prayer (?O for the wings of a dove?), an excerpt from Brahms?s Ein deutsches Requiem, and Allegri?s Miserere. Twentieth-century ?mystics? Jonathan Harvey and Sir John Tavener are both represented, and the album reaches a crescendo through the expansive writing of Stanford in G and the joyously declamatory Te Deum by Benjamin Britten.
