Description

The new Choir of Merton College, Oxford is rapidly emerging as a major force in collegiate choral music. It's debut recording - bookended by Gabriel Jackson's ravishing version of the rarely set Johannine Prologue and Copland's glowing account of the first seven days of creation - makes inventive play with the theme of 'beginnings', in a sequence of Renaissance and modern classics that reflects the range and reach of the choir's daily repertoire. All is captured in sumptuous sound in the radiant acoustic of Merton's famous chapel.
