4.0 out of 5 stars English Sacred Choral Music, May 14, 2003

This review is from: Elgar: Sacred Music; Organ Sonata No. 1 (Audio CD)

The close ties of Edward Elgar to Worcester clearly come through in the passionate and caring approach taken by Christopher Robinson and the Worcester Cathedral Choir. A unique selection of choral pieces sung with precision and professionalism, but with the heart of a great choir.
Certainly a worthwhile addition to any collection of choral works.
