Wait for it… #JamesMacMillan Miserere. At the end of a beautiful journey, from the deepest E major chord, the whole choir rises, burning hot and impassioned, for one last outcry, before coming finally, fully to rest. Wonderful memories of special concerts with #SWRVokalensemble.
Thanks for this lovely review!

Poulenc’s music has followed me like no one else’s over the past few years — or is it the other way around? Whichever, I’m so grateful for it. Here part of his miniature cantata, ‘Soir de Neige’. Live from the Domkerk, Utrecht on 23 Dec 2023.

Happy New Year! “Ihr wandelt droben im Licht” Brahms sets amazing words in his Schicksalslied. The opening is held on a thread, everything suspended in serene beauty. I wish us all light and love in this year to come.
@radiofilhorkest, @grootomroepkoor, live from @Concertgebouw.

★★★★★ 'Scored for unaccompanied double choir, Rheinberger's Mass is a glorious affirmation of the composer's faith, radiating joy. It is sung with passion and elegance here, as are the earlier works by Mendelssohn.'
Thank you @MusicMagazine

JS Bach, "Was Gott tut, das ist wohlgetan"
I love the tender sequence in the second half of this chorale, mirroring the text's rhyme: “So wird Gott mich, ganz väterlich, in seinen Armen halten”
