From established favourites by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Sir John Tavener, to recent works (including two premiere recordings) by Sir James MacMillan.

This is an outstanding programme of choral works with strong musical and historical connections to Westminster Abbey and its celebrated choir.

"'This, apparently his last recording at the Abbey, sustains the remarkably high standards he and his choir consistently achieved during his tenure. A special sense of intimate devotion suffuses the opening Kyrie of Vaughan Williams's Mass, the singing restrained but immaculately controlled technically.'" BBC Music Choral & Song Choice *5 Stars) Sept 2023
