Drawn from across the composer's lengthy career, this collection of Part-Songs and Choral-Works explores the great variety and range within Elgar's work for choir and voices. Along with more well-known works such as 'Love' and 'Deep in my Soul' there are early pieces such as 'O Salutaris hostia' (composed for small amateur choirs) that give hints of his later mature style, through to the 1928 piece 'I sing the Birth' – a work that shows Elgar's ability to adapt to more contemporary styles of 20th-century choral composition. The Rodolfus Choir have established themselves as one of the leading youth choirs in Britain, made up of singers aged from 16 to 25 who have been chosen from past and present members of the Eton Choral Courses for prospective choral scholars. Many members of the Choir are choral scholars, some are at music college, and most hope to make a career in music. The Rodolfus Choir and Ralph Allwood are well-known for imaginative programming, and for presenting new music. The Rodolfus Choir’s recent CD recordings with Signum include music as diverse as Howells, Monteverdi, Grier, Tallis and the German Romantics. “The combination of Ralph Allwood and the Rodolfus Choir usually means quality. It does again here in this excellently sung recital of Elgar choral pieces. It's hard, in fact, to imagine 'Go, song of mine', the opening item, done better...When simplicity of utterance is necessary, the Rodolfus deliver it unfussily.” BBC Music Magazine, May 2013 **** “The delicacy (and occasional fragility) of the Rodolfus's young voices make the effect [in 'Owls'] even more poignant...[Give unto the Lord] rounds off this hugely enjoyable disc with aplomb.” Gramophone Magazine, April 2013 “The strength and major appeal of this disc will surely be the opportunity it presents to discover just how much Elgar could be an explorer … Elgarians and others tempted by the works assembled in this new collection can be assured that it is on a par with the best of them” International Record Review, March 2013 “The Rodolfus Choir shine strongly in these well-loved Elgar part-songs choral works.” MusicWeb International, April 2013 |
