Synopsis
Product Description
King s College Choir are the most famous choir in the world. This set of the complete Argo recordings celebrates David Willcocks tenure from 1957-1973 and includes some of the most beautiful choral music sung with the choir s trademark richness and purity of sound.
Included are many of the choral greats Bach s St John Passion, Tallis Spem in Alium, Haydn s Nelson Mass, and Roy Goodman in the most famous recording of Allegri s Miserere - all in the glorious acoustics of King s College Chapel.
Six of these albums are released on CD for the first time David Willcocks 1964 Festival of Lessons & Carols and Tye Masses and four albums from Boris Ord, David Willcocks predecessor. Willcocks St John Passion is also released on CD internationally for the first time (was previously released in the UK only).
Notes are by John Rutter (fellow arranger of Christmas Carols with Willcocks), Roy Goodman (treble in Allegri s Miserere), Francis Warner (choral scholar under Boris Ord), Simon Eadon (Decca Engineer) and Ronald Corp (composer, conductor and choral specialist).
