After almost a decade, Hyperion is delighted to welcome back the world-famous St. Paul's Cathedral Choir under its new director of music, Hyperion artist and director of The Cardinall's Musick, Andrew Carwood. Joined by the St. Paul's Mozart Orchestra and a quartet of renowned soloists, Carwood leads sparkling performances of a selection of Mozart's sacred music. Although they were commissioned to be sung at church services in Salzburg, all these compositions are suffused with Mozart's typically unerring sense of dramatic pacing and a sensuous, operatic treatment of solo lines, as well as crisp and energetic choral writing.
