In 1997, The Holst Singers and Stephen Layton produced a disc that immediately became a cult classic and a best-seller. ‘Ikon’, a selection of great Russian choral music from the 19th century, dazzled with its grand, opulent beauty. Now the same forces return with Ikon II. Many of the works recorded here are by composers whose names will not be familiar – but the extraordinary quality of the music is unmistakable and immediately enthralling. “Performing with insight and commendable Russian sonority, the Holst Singers have cast their net wide in this survey of Orthodox Church music.” The Telegraph, 5th October 2010 **** “Those wary of an English choir's sensibilities in music almost from another planet should head stright to Tolstiakov's Blagoslovi and Rimsky-Korsakov's Our Father for blissful reassurance of authenticity” Classic FM Magazine, December 2010 ***** “for those not drawn to this disc by their own Orthodox faith there is still plenty to value in documentary terms...the programme is scrupulously prepared, with excellent pronunciation, idiomatic timbres and a fine fusion of ardent communication and sensitive shaping.” Gramophone Magazine, December 2010 “Layton's preparation of his singers has obviously been extraordinarily thorough: the intonation is faultless across all the registers here, diction is clear and the choral sound is beautifully homogenized - there doesn't seem to be a weak voice anywhere. Nor is there a weak piece: all 22 items blaze with devout passion.” International Record Review, November 2010 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Once again it is the human voice that allows us to express ourselves in ways that affect us deeply. Ikon gives us the power to remember, to reflect, to hope and ultimately to rejoice. The composers featured here are from differing traditions but all speak with the same passion and conviction. All let the language create the music and thus allow the music to enter our hearts.- Harry Christophers “A dark gold Orthodox light permeates all the performances, which lends a consistency to the whole programme. It is music in a continuous state of exaltation - from open-mouthed awe to ecstatic joy. …70 minutes of tranquil, wistful beauty.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2006 **** “This rich collection demonstrates yet again the superb quality of this justly celebrated choir.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2006 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
