Beschreibung:

In the centenary anniversary year of the end of the First World War and on the eve of the 80th anniversary of the beginning of the Second World War, SOMM Recordings pays tribute to those who fought and fell in battle with In Remembrance. A moving compendium of music spanning 130 years, it features the Chapel Choir of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, the Choir of Chelsea Pensioners, Staff and Volunteers, sopranos Katy Hill and Leah Jackson, baritone Gareth John and organists James Orford and Hugh Rowlands under the direction of William Vann. Founded in 1682 by King Charles II, the Royal Hospital is home to the world-famous Chelsea Pensioners - retired veterans of the British army - whose contributions on three tracks adds it's own special poignancy to In Remembrance. Moving choral works commemorating courage and offering comfort by Hubert Parry, Gustav Holst, and Edward Elgar are heard alongside equally affecting pieces by their contemporaries and successors, Charles Villiers Stanford, John Ireland, Douglas Guest and Charles Harris. Fauré's Requiem, arranged for choir and organ by Iain Farrington, and Ian Venable's newly-composed Requiem aeternam (in it's first recording) both offer succor and solace in their conviction that death is not the end but, as Fauré thought of it: "a happy deliverance, an aspiration towards happiness above, rather than as a painful experience.", Runningtime: 00:00:00, Baritone Vocals: Gareth Brynmor John, Booklet Editor: Michael Quinn (8), Chorus: Chapel Choir Of The Royal Hospital, Chelsea, Chorus: Chelsea Pensioners' Choir, Conductor [Director]: William Vann, Cover: John Nash (5), Design, Layout: Andrew Giles (3), Engineer [Recording]: Adaq Khan, Organ: Hugh Rowlands, Organ: James Orford, Producer: Siva Oke, Soprano Vocals: Katy Hill, Soprano Vocals: Leah Jackson, Composed By: John Ireland, Composed By: Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, Composed By: Douglas Guest, Composed By: Sir Edward Elgar, Composed By: Charles Harris (26), Composed By: Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, Composed By: Gustav Holst, Composed By: Charles Villiers Stanford, Arranged By: Iain Farrington, Composed By: Gustav Holst, Arranged By: Iain Farrington, Composed By: Gabriel Fauré, Composed By: Ian Venables, Labelcode SOMM187.2 (SOMMCD 0187), Copyright (c) Somm Recordings, Phonographic Copyright (p) Somm Recordings, Recorded At Temple Church, London
