A new collection of the Sacred Choral works of Alexander L'Estrange, one of the leading lights of modern British composition, performed by BBC Music Magazine award winners Tenebrae, directed by Nigel Short.
„Alexander L'Estrange's (music is) both approachable and highly popular and, at the same time, beautifully crafted and full of integrity“ (Simon Halsey)
„… One gorgeous piece after another, in pristine, dew-fresh performances by the ever-wonderful choir Tenebrae. Alexander L’Estrange is a many-sided composer of prodigious gifts, and this is an album I will return to again and again; I recommend it warmly to all lovers of choral music.” (John Rutter)
