Each year a small group of the Royal Academy of Music's most accomplished performers of song repertoire are selected to form Song Circle. Since its inception in 2004, Song Circle has given more than 20 concerts, including thematic programmes on Spring, Spain, Seduction and Farewell. Song Circle's annual Schubertiade has become a much anticipated feature of the Academy's events calendar. As well as regular performances at the Academy, Song Circle has twice given concerts at Wigmore Hall. This is Song Circle's third CD.

"A showcase for outstanding vocal talent at the Royal Academy of Music, this well-planned disc also offers an attractive programme" London Evening Standard

The Choir of St. George’s Chapel, Windsor, Timothy Byram-Wigfield

The Choir of St George's Chapel,Windsor Castle offers a sumptuous programme of jewels from the anthem tradition whose repertoire spans five centuries. Under the luminous direction of Timothy Byram-Wigfield, and in the luxurious resonance of St George's Chapel, the choir resounds with exhilarating energy.

This recording is dedicated to all those who lost their lives on 11 September, 2001.The proceeds from this track will be donated to the British Memorial Garden Trust Inc. www.britishmemorialgarden.org

“demonstrates the choir's versatility …their freshness is an asset, and the extremes of expression … are beautifully caught” Gramophone Magazine

“…the choir, most atmospherically recorded in the Chapel, demonstrates its current health, with the trebles in particular wonderfully bright.” Gramophone Magazine, September 2006

“There are many choral groups performing cathedral music on CD and in the concert hall, but no matter how polished their singing nothing quite matches the experience of hearing our greatest church choirs singing their own repertoire on their own territory. So it is with this splendid CD: surely the next best thing to being present in the sumptuous surroundings of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.” Organists Review
