St Margaret’s Westminster Singers, Richard Hickox Richard Hickox writes, ‘This recording has so many special memories for me. Not only was the choir of St Margaret’s Westminster in a particularly golden era, but I adored the music, and, above all, I knew what it meant to the composer himself. I had met Edmund Rubbra at the age of seven at a Guy Fawkes party. I remember him celebrating the fact that he had just completed a symphony that very day. Little did I think that three or four decades down the track I would have recorded his entire symphonic output for Chandos. The masses, and particularly the two carols, are perhaps the most personal music in Rubbra’s output. After I had not seen him for many years, he came to the recording sessions. As the last carol at the last session was completed, I went down to the recording room to find Edmund in the corner with tears running down his cheeks. The most humble of men, he said he was just so grateful that we had done the project at all, and I like to think too that he’d been moved by the performances we gave.’ | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Jacqueline du Pré
Jacqueline du Pré (cello) BBC Symphony Orchestra The CD showcases Jacqueline du Pré whose recordings, notably of the Elgar Cello Concerto, are still major sellers in every market around the world. This BBC Legends release features one of her live performances of the Elgar at the 1964 London 'Proms' made six months prior to her commercial studio recording. The release also comprises two Du Pré performances which are totally new to her discography - the world premiere of the South African born Priaulx Rainier's Cello Concerto (from the same concert as the Elgar) and Edmund Rubbra's Cello Sonata in G minor from the Cheltenham Festival in 1962. Rubbra dedicated his cello sonata to William Pleeth, Du Pré's cello teacher. This CD recorded in excellent stereo (the Rubbra is mono) is a 'must have' purchase for the many Jacqueline du Pré fans in addition to hearing her in English music as well as in two works she never recorded before. Du Pré's BBC Legends's recording of the Dvorak Cello and Ibert Cello Concertos (BBCL41562) has been a best seller since its release. |
