Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum / Benjamin Nicholas (director)
For their fourth recording for Delphian, the boys and men of Tewkesbury Abbey Schola Cantorum turn their attention to that doyen of Anglican church music, Charles Villiers Stanford. Alongside familiar gems from the Evensong repertoire, sung with characteristic vigour and freshness, the programme includes the six little known Bible Songs, each followed by its associated hymn. Amongst the soloists - all members of the choir
- is Laurence Kilsby, 2009 BBC Chorister of the Year, making his solo debut on disc.
“Under Benjamin Nicholas, director of the abbey's Schola Cantorum, the choir has developed a strong style, remarkable for its sense of personal (or corporate) commitment as for the sonority of its
tone and the assurance of its delivery. The trebles splendidly vindicate the tradition that places them at the heart of English cathedral music. The men's voices are also powerful and resonant and the
total effect is rich and forthright.” Gramophone, April 2009
