{"product_id":"requiem","title":"Requiem","description":"Product Description\n\nWhile the unifying thread which links these works is that of loss, the underlying focus is an uplifting celebration of life and love. Gabriel Jackson's Requiem combines traditional solemnity with poems which embrace wide-ranging spirituality, resulting in images of light and radiant optimism. Contrasting poignancy of expression is heard in personal tributes from John Tavener and Francis Pott, while Bob Chilcott uses Pachelbel's famous Canon to set Oscar Wilde's Requiescat. Vasari Singers' Great British Anthems (8.572504) was described as 'essential listening' by Gramophone. Founded in 1980, Vasari Singers is among the leading chamber choirs in Britain, performing music ranging from Renaissance to contemporary. The choir performs regularly in London as well as visiting many of England's cathedrals to sing services, with recent trips to Canterbury, Salisbury, Bath and Ripon. The choir and Jeremy Backhouse are deeply committed to contemporary music and have commissioned over twenty works since 2000, including works by Francis Pott and Gabriel Jackson.\n\nReview\n\nAn extraordinarily powerful account of When David Heard...the Vasaris prove to be most eloquent interpreters of and advocates for Francis Potts' music, and one hopes that they continue to champion this brilliant British composer. --Philip Barnes, ACDA Choral Journal\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00925TB5O\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00925TB5O.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gabriel Jackson|Jeremy Backhouse|Vasari Singers|Carl Herring\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
