A beautiful collection of choral works celebrating love, hope, and charity through music that consoles and uplifts. Recorded in February 2022, this is the first recording made by the Choir of Bath Abbey, under their director, Huw Williams, since resuming singing after over eighteen months of lockdown, and features music which provides solace for those suffering challenge and loss. The glorious singing of the Abbey’s boys, girls and lay clerks again resonates through the hallowed walls of this historic and beautiful building. In addition to some favourite works intended for Remembrance Sunday in November, there is an inspiring range of comforting pieces for other occasions. The recording includes the first recordings of Judith Bingham’s ‘The sleeping soul’ - commissioned by Bath Abbey - and ‘Lord, you have been my dwelling place’, by Huw Williams. ‘Reverberant acoustics and clear vocal lines’ Choir and Organ (REGCD555)
