Recent Highlights
St Martin’s Voices under director Andrew Earis brings together eighteen Christmas choral works by a wide range of contemporary composers to tell the story of the nativity. Music by Cecilia McDowall, Gabriel Jackson and James Whitbourn is featured alongside pieces from the next generation of choral composers including Grace-Evangeline Mason, Kerensa Briggs and Emily Hazrati. Thoughtfully curated and stylishly performed, these premiere recordings narrate the Christmas story from prophecy to birth, adding fresh material to the festive repertoire and highlighting the ongoing creativity of British choral music.
This landmark recording is the first album devoted entirely to the music of Avril Coleridge-Taylor (1903–1998). A composer, conductor, pianist and singer of remarkable versatility, she long remained in the shadow of her father, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Here, at last, her artistry takes centre stage. Featuring world-premiere recordings of some of her most significant orchestral works, the album reveals a distinctive musical voice – eloquent, assured, and deeply personal. Together, these performances stand as a powerful testament to her creativity and resilience, illuminating the experiences of a woman of colour in twentieth-century Britain.
Commemorating the quatercentenary of Chapel Royal composer Orlando Gibbons’s death in 1625, The Choir of HM Chapel Royal, Hampton Court and The English Cornett & Sackbut Ensemble join forces to present a programme that surveys the wide range of Gibbons’s output. Featuring the entire Second Service, plus verse & full anthems alongside hymns, fantasias and dance tunes, this recording celebrates not only the composer’s legacy but also the continuing historical unity in performance of voices and instruments at the Chapel Royal over several hundred years.
