Glorious CD
Glorious CD
A CD recorded in St George's Chapel by the Lay Clerks and Choristers and conducted by Timothy Byram-Wigfield, has just been re-released following critical acclaim on its original production.
'O How Glorious is the Kingdom' contains 16 favourite anthems and is available from the St George's Chapel shop. One of the anthems is 'The Whirlwind', composed by Sir Walter Parratt, recorded here for the first time ever.
One reviewer wrote: ‘There are many choral groups performing Cathedral music on CD and in the concert hall but no matter how polished their singing nothing quite matches the experience of hearing our greatest Church Choirs singing their own repertoire on their own territory. So it is with this splendid CD – surely the next-best thing to being present in the sumptuous surroundings of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.’

I was glad when they said unto me
For He shall give His angels charge over thee
