Wherever You Are, The surprise disc of early 2012. This is NOT to be missed for fans of choral music!
“This is certainly not a recording of Ubi Caritas spin-offs...Tenebrae directed by Nigel Short pull out all the vocal stops at the right moments...Mealor has finally found his true compositional voice here - one that manages to avoid the mawkishness of much that characterises recent tonally imbued choral music.” - Gramophone March 2012
“[Ubi Caritas's] mixture of expressive lyricisim with occasional unexpected harmonic shadings [is] beautifully rendered in Tenebrae's impeccable performance. The same penchant for peppering his writing with sudden twists of harmony and modulation characterises the four settings of Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal” - BBC Music March 2012 |
