Romaria - Choral Music from Brazil on CD

Romaria - a word suggesting pilgrimage, crowds, and processions - evokes much of what is distinctive about modern Brazil - it's mix of people, it's vibrancy, it's faith. This survey of modern Brazilian choral music reflects these qualities, as well as the natural wonders of this amazing land. Geoffrey Webber and his ever-adventurous choir sing both sacred and secular works dating from the 1950s to the present, in a program developed in conjunction with the University of São Paulo's music department. Founded in 1348, Caius College Choir is one of Britain's leading collegiate choirs and this is their eighth recording on Delphian.
