Recorded in the splendidly lush acoustic of Winchester Cathedral, this popular Decca/Argo release is now restored to circulation at super-budget price, with such popular favourites as Parry's I was glad and Elgar's orchestration of Jerusalem. But there are also many other pieces for choir and orchestra here to be discovered. “Finally Jerusalem itself comes as the culminating tableau, with the solidity of massed unison voices and the flaming chariots and swirling arrows of desire set ablaze in the orchestral score which Elgar wrote for it four years after Parry's death. [...] This is a sumptuous programme, and David Hill's by no means meagre forces present it with a fine sense of style and occasion, vividly recorded too. There is not only the splendour of sheer amplitude but also a spring in the rhythm (as in Stanford's Magnificat) and beauty of tone in the quieter passages such as the hymn from Parry's Judith” Gramophone Magazine | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | CelebrationFavourite Music for British Royal Family Occasions from Westminster Abbey
The splendour of royal music for grand ceremonies and celebrations. No English church is more associated with Royal pomp and pageantry than Westminster Abbey. Since 1066, every sovereign save two has been crowned there. Until the relative privacy of Windsor was preferred, most were buried there. And it has become the favoured venue for members of the Royal family to marry. Martin Neary leads choral and brass forces in a program of music by Arthur Bliss, Ralph Vaughan Williams, William Walton, Hubert Parry, and others for grand ceremonial occasions. | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |
