Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra & Chorus English Choral Premieres & Rarities CD

Not to distract you from the excellence of the orchestral playing, but the accomplishments and inspiration displayed here represent English choral singing at it's best. The smoothness, unanimity of enunciation, and ear-endearing luminosity of the singing resonates long after... not to be missed by fans of lyrical British choral music. Those who appreciate their Vaughan Williams and Delius will be richly rewarded. (MusicWeb)
