Product Description
From Amazon.com
It is interesting to compare this Howells Requiem with that on Hyperion, where the Corydon Singers convey convincing but abstract grief with cool white tone and precise tuning. Here, the Finzi's warm tone and dynamic range seem more empathetic, pulling you into the agonized suspensions of the Requiem ernam and the comforting light of the final movement. The shorter works are all worthwhile, but two by Vaughan Williams stand out. A Vision of Aeroplanes sets an uncanny prophecy of Ezekiel; the whirling organ pedals sound like an old Sopwith Camel. "Lord, thou hast been our refuge" intersperses Psalm 90 (to a beautiful melody) with the hymn "O God, our help in ages past"--it opens with hushed tenderness and closes powerfully as a trumpet blazes through the hymn. --Matthew Westphal
