Our Take

Westminster Abbey may be steeped in history, but Westminster Choir/Holder's latest album is a breath of fresh air in the world of choral music. With compositions from the likes of Sir Edward Cuthbert Bairstow, Sir William Harris, and Sir Charles Villiers Stanford, this album is a true homage to the British choral tradition.

Bairstow's pieces showcase the depth and complexity of choral music, with intricate harmonies and soaring melodies that transport the listener to another world. Harris's compositions offer a more playful and light-hearted approach, with whimsical arrangements that are sure to put a smile on your face.

But it's Stanford's work that truly steals the show on this album. His choral pieces are a masterclass in emotional storytelling, with each note and phrase carefully crafted to tug at the heartstrings. From the haunting beauty of "The Blue Bird" to the uplifting power of "For Lo, I Raise Up," Stanford's music is sure to leave a lasting impression on any listener.

Overall, Westminster Choir/Holder's album is a must-listen for any fan of choral music. With exquisite performances and stunning compositions, this album is a true testament to the enduring power of the human voice. So grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let yourself be transported to a world of beauty and wonder with Westminster Choir/Holder.
