Professionally mastered CD recordings
 |
Alleluia is a fully mastered compilation of Gloriana's live concert recordings from 2002 and 2008, with repertoire spanning five centuries - from the sumptuous Renaissance polyphony of sixteenth-century Palestrina to the interweaving melodies of twentieth-century Frank Martin. Music by Josquin, Gesualdo, Lotti and Rachmaninoff completes the collection. A rich and mellow exploration of some of the most profound sacred texts, Alleluia captures the vibrant and expressive sound of the 28-voice choir. |
