Tenebrae (Nigel Short): Gaudete: Faure, Tavener, Pachelbel, Reich

Be the first to review this product

Arranged by Classic FM's Hall of Fame 2004 'top-ten-composer' Karl Jenkins, and sung by crack professional choir, Tenebrae,Gaudete is released this October on Signum U.K., both with percussion and as a pure, unadulterated, a cappella version. Also on this disc is Alexander L'Estrange's arrangement of Pachelbel's Canon, and his spine-tingling version of Fauré's romantic Après un rêve which will surely become an all-time favorite. Sir John Tavener's haunting, mesmeric The Lamb is included, with an excerpt of a piece written especially for Tenebrae, Mother and Child. And to close the recording, a special kind of 'applause' from Steve Reich. Tenebrae has been nominated for a prestigious Gramophone Award in 2004. (Notes from the distributor's website)
