Recording Sessions at Douai Abbey

15/7/2011

 
After three days of singing Duruflé's Requiem in the wonderful acoustics of Douai Abbey, we have now recorded all the tracks for our new CD.

The recording will feature internationally acclaimed soloists Christine Rice (mezzo-soprano) and Mark Stone (baritone).  The choir was conducted by David Crown and accompanied by organ scholar Tristan Mitchard. Watch this space for further details about the CD release and the launch concert.

Recording Sessions at Somerville

After two days of recording sessions at Somerville Chapel, we have now completed the first ever recording of Robin Milford's Mass for Five Voices. The CD, produced by former choir member James Percival, will be released by Stone Records next year.

We are now off to Douai Abbey, where we will spend three days recording Duruflé's Requiem, the second work to be featured on our debut album.
