Description:

The first edition of the prestigious British choir CORO! Music on the theme of "Evening"! The prestigious British choir, Oxford Maudlin College Choir, makes its first appearance on CORO. The first volume explores the repertoire that has been the foundation of the College's musical life for the past 500 years with the theme of "Evening". While much of the music associated with the evening is serene and soothing, satisfying those who seek transcendent beauty in the form of an unchallenging "sound bath," this album contrasts contemporary and 16th century music. The Oxford Maudlin College Choir was founded in 1480 as the largest choir in late medieval England, and this historical legacy has been maintained for five centuries. Today, the choir, which has gained an international reputation as one of the finest ensembles in England, sings primarily at daily church services in the Maudlin College Chapel and at numerous special events throughout the year, including the famous May Day celebration, a time-honored tradition dating back to the 16th century.In his concert work, he has appeared at the BBC Proms and Cadogan Hall, as well as with many leading orchestras, including the Britten Sinfonia and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. Mark Williams, who has worked with many distinguished orchestras, choirs, and ensembles as a conductor, chamberlain, and organist, including assistant organist at St. Paul's Cathedral in London, has the ability to capture the space between day and night that is characteristic of the evening prayer in these works He will lead the audience into "the peace that surpasses all understanding.
