Description
Could the definitive recording of the
best-loved Orthodox choral music of all
come from an Anglican chapel choir?
Delphian's Paul Baxter thinks so.
The young King's College London voices
are bright, responsive and clear, and the
recording is intentionally designed to
bring out the bell-like phrases that ring
through the whole piece.
From the first second the sound grabs
you and holds you close: it's punchy,
and bold – a new presentation of music
we all thought we knew. In a recording
to honour Rachmaninov's 150th
anniversary, Joseph Fort and The Choir
of King's College London stake their
claim to be among the finest choirs in
the business.
