Featuring ENO Music Director Edward Gardner!\nAn all-British program sung by Susan Gritton, the lyric soprano of whom Britain is proud! “Dies Natalis” (Nativity), a masterpiece woven from Finzi’s music—with its pastoral yet somehow sombre, profound beauty—and Gritton’s voice. The complete “Four French Songs” and “Illuminations”—works composed by Britten at the age of 14—performed by one of today’s foremost “Britten singers.” All four works performed by Gritton—including Delius’s “The Departing Lark,” edited by Thomas Beecham and Eric Fenby and currently the only soprano version in existence—are masterpieces that represent 20th-century British vocal music!\nJoining Gratton is Edward Gardner, Music Director of the English National Opera (ENO), making his second appearance since signing an exclusive contract! The fact that Chandos has paired Gritton with this young maestro—who has proven his prowess at ENO—shows just how seriously the label takes this song collection. Finzi, Britten, and D’Liás. Prepare to be moved by this magnificent music—\nTokyo M Plus\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Dies natalis, cantata for high voice and string orchestra, Op. 8: 1.
