Description
For this album, Vlaams Radiokoor has collected, with the help of their audience, a few of the most beautiful works from the rich choral repertoire. The result is like an exhibition in which singers emerge from silence, painting with music, note upon note, colour upon colour, tone upon tone.
This is the first recording on Evil Penguin of Vlaams Radiokoor with new musical director, Bart Van Reyn and features works by Arvo Part, Herbert Howells, Morton Lauridsen, Frank Martin, Francis Poulenc and Samuel Barber.
The Vlaams Radiokoor (Flemish Radio Choir) was founded in 1937 by the Belgian public broadcaster of the day. Today, it is renowned for vocal music in Flanders and Europe, and is counted among the top ensembles both at home and abroad.
