Rachmaninov's Vespers has kept me company for many an hour' - 2.05.05
A wholehearted recommendation from Classic FM’s John Brunning
John Brunning, Classic FM presenter of ‘Smooth Classics’ and ‘Classic Newsnight’ chooses Tenebrae’s ‘Vespers’ record as one of his recent favourites.
“We are already nearly halfway through 2005, and so far, it has been a good one for new releases”.
“A live recording of Rachmaninov’s Vespers has kept me company for many an hour.”
“It is performed here by the choir Tenebrae, directed by it’s founder and former member of the King’s Singers, Nigel Short. I know that ‘disc of the month’ makes the case for Russian-speaking singers performing this music, but I wholeheartedly recommend this CD.”
