Customer Reviews

Another great English Choral Music CD
Elgar's choral music is some of his most exquisite, and the latest in this excellent Naxos series of English Choral Music does much to showcase it.

The two anthems that stand out are the dramatic "Give unto the Lord" and the more solemn but wonderfully profound "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me". The Choir of St. John's College, Cambridge and the conductor Christopher Robinson are perfectly suited to performing this kind of music and the wonderful treble sound really brings the music to like, especially in more tuneful pieces like "Ave verum corpus". The organ playing is also brilliant, even the most difficult and dramatic passages performed to perfection.

An excellent addition to a series of fantastic music, and one which any admirer of the English music tradition would do well to buy!
