From the regal opulence of Great is the Lord, first performed in Westminster Abbey in 1912, to the quiet devotion of the opus 2 Ave verum and Ave Maria, this varied programme is the perfect guide through Elgar\\u2019s rich choral output.\\r\u003cbr\u003ePerformances on this new recording are astounding, as James O\\u2019Donnell guides the men and boys of Westminster Abbey through the grandiloquence and tenderness of this seminal music. The full gamut of Elgar\\u2019s career\\u2014from son of provincial instrument dealer to \\u2018composer laureate\\u2019\\u2014is represented and at every turn these performers offer new insights into the performing possibilities of these all-too-often-hackneyed works. There is also a rare performance of the long-forgotten Queen Alexandra Memorial Ode\\u2014a fitting tribute by Poet Laureate (John Masefield) and Master of the King\\u2019s Musick (Elgar) to Edward VII\\u2019s much-lamented consort.\\r\u003cbr\u003ePerformances by The Choir of Westminster Abbey, under the direction of James O\\u2019Donnell and with the sympathetic organ accompaniment of Robert Quinney, are every bit as good as their previous Hyperion recordings would lead us to expect.\u003cp\u003eGreat Is The Lord\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Are At Rest\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eQueen Alexandra Memorial Ode\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAve Maria\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Spirit Of The Lord\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTe Deum\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBenedictus\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO Salutaris Hostia\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAve Verum\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEce Sacerdos Magnus\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eO Hearken Thou\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive Unto The Lord\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55149724729729,"sku":"751540","price":17.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61kGN7Of6XL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767847798","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/751540","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
