Contemporary Choral Delights with the 蜜芽传媒 Singers

Sofi Jeannin conducts the 蜜芽传媒 Singers, the United Strings of Europe and the National Youth Chamber Choir of Great Britain in a programme of exciting new music.

Sofi Jeannin conducts the 蜜芽传媒 Singers, the National Youth Chamber Choir and the United Strings of Europe in an exhilarating evening of new American and European music for voices and strings.

Featuring Dobrinka Tabakova's celebratory 'Centuries of Meditations', inspired by four stained glass windows in Hereford Cathedral, Caroline Shaw's colourful work for strings 'Entr'acte' and Judith Weir's reflective suite for chorus and string orchestra 'O Sweet Spontaneous Earth'.
At the heart of the concert is the UK premiere of Morten Lauridsen's moving piece for choir and string 'Ave Verum Corpus', and the world premiere of Kim Andr茅 Arnesen's new work: 'Our Living Future'.

Recorded earlier this month at Milton Court, London, and presented by Sarah Walker.
