  From Captivity to the Holy City

Opus 7 - Loren W Pontén, Director

LRCD1032




£12.99 inc VAT

With a nice tonal quality, the male and female voices are ideally weighted to produce a precise balance. At the appropriate points they can bring a nice cutting edge to their singing, and entries have razor-sharp precision…I particularly enjoy the choir in the British works, their bold tone perfectly matched to the nature of the music. That is particularly evident in the bold colors of Finzi’s God is Gone Up, where you can feel the sheer pomp and ceremony of the some British state occasion. The choir’s excellent principal singers take solo sections, and the Cathedral organist, Joseph Adam is involved in three of the tracks, most importantly in bringing impact to the Finzi.
