See Terms & Conditions for p&p rates. | |  | John Rutter -The Gift of MusicThe Choral Collection
“This 60th-birthday tribute brings together a selection of John Rutter's short anthems and folksong arrangements, plus a couple of extracts from his Requiem. Impeccably crafted, they're invariably neatly and effectively composed, and not too difficult for amateur choirs. These performances given under the composer's baton by a choir he founded are faultless and presumably definitive. The sound is warm and lucid.” BBC Music Magazine, October 2005 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Rutter - Christmas Music
“You either love or hate Rutter's Christmas music, but for me, Christmas is John Rutter. Complete with sublime melodies, choir-friendly textures and just the right amount of frivolity, this disc is as good as it gets.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2007 “Rutter's writing is notable not only for its tunefulness and winning use of choral textures, but also for his always engaging orchestrations.” Penguin Guide, 2011 edition | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

| |  | Christmas Spectacular
John Wells & Nicholas Forbes (organ) & APO (brass & percussion) Musica Sacra Choir, Indra Hughes This wonderful Christmas CD balances a number of different elements – choral showcases from Musica Sacra, an organ solo, the splendour of the brass both by itself and in combination with the choir and organ. There is some ‘serious’ classical music as well as lighter, more popular repetoire, which overall, has something for everyone and should be a welcome addition to the musical joys of Christmas. | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | Noël Nouvelet
Noel Nouvelet is a typically vibrant Vasari mix of traditional carols and exciting arrangements of familiar tunes, reflecting the choir’s ongoing desire to dress up the traditional in new clothes, to blend tradition with innovation. So, for example, alongside Kenneth Leighton's beautiful Coventry Carol, Naji Hakim’s exuberant version of Ding dong! Merrily on high and Morten Lauridsen’s powerful O magnum mysterium sits Ward Swingle’s arrangement of Mel Tormé's Christmas Song, Jonathan Rathbone's sumptuous arrangement of Silent Night and Nigel Short's equally lush adaptation of Away in a manger. The CD also includes several world premiere recordings, including Love came down at Christmas by Humphrey Clucas and Andrew Carter's firmly tongue-in-cheek showpiece arrangement of The Twelve Days of Christmas. “The singing certainly has the freshness and clarity that one associates with this fine choir and unique elements are provided by such tracks as Naji Hakim’s virtuosic arrangement of Ding Dong! Merrily on High...The stylistic breadth of the Vasari Singers is dazzlingly demonstrated on this recording...A very fine disc. Essential listening.” Church Music Quarterly, 23rd December 2008 “There are few traditional carols here, but my attention was fully held throughout – not least because of the superb singing...I was consistently impressed by the sheer quality of their artistry here – intonation, phrasing and enunciation are all of an exceptional standard...This is a fabulous CD, brilliantly recorded.” International Record Review, December 2007 “musical standards in terms of both the music and the performance are extremely high...performances [are] committed and sensitive without any of the self-conscious exactitude to which some choirs are prone, and a clear but atmospheric recording” MusicWeb International, 28th November 2007 “this disc, as well as housing five world premiere CD recordings, boasts a fine collection of arrangements and unusual interpretations of familiar numbers.The whole is conducted thoughtfully by Jeremy Backhouse, while Jeremy Filsell accompanies clearly and responsibly on the organ.” musicOHM, 13th November 2007 “the joy and vigour with which they sing and the innovativeness of these arrangement make this a welcome addition to any Christmas CD list.” Muso Magazine, December 2007 | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |
