Gabriel Jackson: Sacred Choral Works
Genre: Choral
Catalogue Number: DCD34027
Label: Delphian
The culmination of a four-year association between the choir of St Mary’s Cathedral and British Composer Award winner Gabriel Jackson, this disc presents eight world premiere recordings. Whether gentle and meditative, brilliantly exuberant, or soaring in ecstatic contemplation, Jackson’s vividly communicative music is brought thrillingly to life by a choir at the peak of its powers.
'Owens fully understands the character of an Anglican cathedral choir while, for their part, the Edinburgh choristers respond with superlative performances, full of spirit but always secure and sensitive. Owens has trained this choir to an exceptionally high level and the sound can only be described as luxurious.' - Gramophone
