Worcester Cathedral Chamber Choir, Stephen Shellard

The first commercial release on Regent of the Worcester Cathedral Chamber choir.

Recorded in the historic Worcester Cathedral, this collection of Christmas music draws on some of the best-known composers in 20th century music, including Benjamin Britten and Ralph Vaughan-Williams.

The collection also includes the first recordings of two carols by Bristol composer Steven Kings and is the first choral recording using the recently installed Kenneth Tickell Quire Organ.

“The carilloning accompaniment in David Willcocks’ arrangement showcases Worcester’s new Quire organ. Unaccompanied voices shine for Elizabeth Poston’s folk-tune arrangement, smoothly yet steadily presented” MusicWeb International, November 2012

New York Polyphony

The landscape traversed on this disc is broad, from twelfth-century conductus to a twentyfirst-century carol, though the musical centre is firmly polyphonic and rooted in the late medieval world. From the meditative simplicity of plainsong, Polyphony’s diverse voices burst forth as a resplendent flowering of music itself, in expressions of joy and wonder, in contemplation and exuberance alike.

“The four male members of New York Polyphony… are the core performers, augmented as necessary by a trio of female voices, the crystalline purity of the soprano contribution to Kenneth Leighton's setting of the famous 'Coventry Carol' being particularly affecting. They sing most alluringly, superior technique a given but never flaunted, the focus squarely on communicating the deeply emotional wellsprings of much of this music.” BBC Music Magazine, December 2007 *****
