lo, the full, final sacrifice Cover Picture

Special Offer
St Alban's Abbey Girls' Choir

Two recordings by St Alban's Abbey Girls' Choir:

Lo, the full, final Sacrifice

Music commissioned for St Matthew's Church, Northampton

'This is an extremely well planned and executed programme....The Finzi setting that gives the CD its title is also a substantial 15-minute work.  Again we have a composer inspired by the commission to write individually but with a great tradition in mind. The choir and conductor respond superbly, giving a performance full of vitality and colour.....

'The recording is well judged, with a difficult acoustic suitably tamed by the engineers without losing bloom or detail.'

Stabat Mater - Pergolesi

St Albans Abbey Girls Choir
Emma Kirkby
Catherine Denley
London Baroque

'The Lammas disc opens with Hildegard's 0 Euchari, a perfect introduction to the Pergolesi, which is accompanied by the beguiling sounds of London Baroque. This performance... is flowing but never hurried. The girls sing on five of the tracks, the remainder of the work falling to the mature, vibrant tones of Emma Kirkby that now give her voice added depth, and the rich sounds of Catherine Denley. It's a stunning performance that has the girls delivering the ornamentation like true professionals.'
Choir and Organ - 2007

Both CDs for the special price of £15.

Sounds Baroque Cover Picture

Organ Special Offer
Terence Charlston

Two organ recordings by Terence Charlston:

Sounds Baroque - Terence Charlston plays the IOFS organ in St Saviour's Church, St Albans.

‘The two-manual organ (after the style of Andreas Silbermann) copes well with the varied musical styles of the period and the recorded sound is clean and well-focussed....Right from the opening moment, it is clear that this is stylish playing from a real expert of this period.’
Cathedral Music

Sounds of Bach - Terence Charlston on the organs of Douai Abbey.

‘Charlston is an acknowledged exponent in Great Britain of early keyboard music, and he plays Bach with unusual elegance, assurance, genuine musicality, and of course, stylistic awareness. All this adds up to splendid Bach organ performances; something of an endangered species nowadays.’
American Record Guide

Terence Charlston is a specialist performer of the Early Keyboard repertoire. He has given concerts world-wide and appeared on over 40 commercial CDs on harpsichord, organ, virginals, clavichord and fortepiano.

Sounds Orchestral - Symphonies by Schubert and Mendelssohn transcribed for Organ Duet by David Gibbs played by Greg Morris and David Gibbs on the organ of Blackburn Cathedral Cover Picture

Organ Special Offer
Blackburn Cathedral

Two titles from the "Sounds" series both featuring the organ of Blackburn Cathedral:

Sounds Orchestral - Symphonies by Schubert and Mendelssohn transcribed for Organ Duet by David Gibbs. Played by Greg Morris and David Gibbs on the organ of Blackburn Cathedral

"David Gibbs has arranged the Schubert Symphony No. 5 and the Mendelssohn Symphony No. 4 (Italian) expertly, and the result is simply great fun to hear...The performance here is nothing short of spectacular, both in execution and in imaginative use of organ sounds."
The Journal of the Association of Anglican Musicians

Sounds Thrilling - Stephen Farr plays the organ in Blackburn Cathedral

"Farr performs the seven movements of this creative music with assurance, grace, and grandeur. The instrument is quite easily capable of the "Frenchness" of it. If there is such a thing as a "perfect" match of music and instrument, this may be it."
The American Organist - March 2007

Peace on Earth - sacred and secular music by Orlando Gibbons Cover Picture

Choral & Solo
Special Offer
 

We also have a choral/solo special offer:

Peace on Earth - Sacred and Secular Music by Orlando Gibbons - Truro Cathedral Choir

"I love Gibbons' music and I am certain that any admirer of fine choral music will enjoy this CD. It works on three levels: a good listen to "chill out" and relax to; a fine statement by a splendid choir whom it would be lovely to hear in their own Cathedral; most of all it is a wonderful affirmation of the genius of Orlando Gibbons."

"All three boys have pure tone, exemplary intonation, and clear diction."
