In celebration of John Joubertâ??s 90th birthday, Wells Cathedral Choir with its director, Matthew Owens, presents a new recording of recent choral works from this prolific veteran composer. Featuring works commissioned for and first performed by the cathedral choir at Wells, this programme has at its heart the extended St Mark Passion, a profound and heartfelt retelling of the well-known passion story. Completing the album are the expansive Missa Wellensis and Joubertâ??s vivid and powerful setting of Locus iste. - WELLS CATHEDRAL CHOIR/MATTHEW OWENS
