Our Take

If Pitchfork had a time machine and transported themselves back to the 19th century, they might just stumble upon the latest release from The Sixteen and Harry Christophers, featuring Charles Villiers Stanford's Partsongs, Pastorals, and Folksongs.

This album is like a musical time capsule, bringing the lush harmonies and intricate melodies of Stanford's compositions to the forefront. And let me tell you, this ain't your grandma's choir music. The Sixteen's impeccable vocal performances bring a fresh, modern energy to these timeless pieces, breathing new life into Stanford's work.

From the haunting beauty of "The Blue Bird" to the rollicking fun of "Quick, We Have But a Second," each track on this album is a journey through the diverse landscapes of Stanford's musical genius. The pastoral settings and folk influences add depth and intrigue to the overall listening experience, making this album a must-have for any classical music aficionado.

So, grab your top hat and monocle, sit back, and enjoy the elegant splendor of Charles Villiers Stanford's Partsongs, Pastorals, and Folksongs with The Sixteen and Harry Christophers. This album is a shining example of the timeless beauty of choral music and is sure to leave you humming these melodies long after the final track fades away.
