Corydon Singers, Matthew Best Issued to mark the fiftieth anniversary of Vaughan Williams’s death, this collection is tantalizing: it starts with one of
the best-selling discs in the the catalogue, the Serenade to Music, and includes such favourites as the Five Mystical Songs
and The Hundreth Psalm. There are also two intriguing pairings: in Dona nobis pacem, RVW warns of the impending
doom of WWII, in A song of thanksgiving we hear his moving response to its successful conclusion; in The shepherds of the
delectable mountains we hear an early working of Bunyan’s literary masterpiece, later extensively reworked in the
landmark 1942 BBC radio production of The Pilgrim’s Progress featuring Sir John Gielgud and reprised here, this time in
condensed form. “The performances are splendid, graced by such soloists as Thomas Allen (Dona nobis pacem, Five Mystical Songs) and Bryn Terfel (The Shepherds of the Delectable Mountains)..The rapturous Serenade to Music has a cast of 16 singers fit to rival those of the original recording. Anne Dawson’s top note on the word “music” is spine-tingling.” Sunday Times, 1st June 2008 **** “Performances like these don’t come along very often; each one is an absolute winner, and with rich, atmospheric recording quality the satisfaction is of a very special quality” CD Review |
