The second album from the Choir of St John’s with their new music director – Christopher Gray.

At the centre of the programme are the atmospheric Quatre Motets pour le temps de Noël by Francis Poulenc, and the heartfelt Three Carol-An-thems by Herbert Howells who directed the Choir here at St John’s during the Second World War. Other items include the beautiful carol John Rutter wrote for the Choir in 1985, There is a flower, and the haunting Peace on earth by Master of the King’s Music, Errollyn Wallen.

“My aim with this album has not been to break new ground with repertoire, but to ensure that classics remain fresh for the current generation” – Christopher Gray
