Various - The Essential John Tavener

John Tavener is a master of sonic masonry, constructing vast cathedrals of both solemnity and exultation within the head and heart. Religious proclivity is not a prerequisite to uncovering the ecstasies in these scores, and the magnetism of each infuses even the most vexed of minds with hope and tranquillity. - DOYLE ARMBRUST TIME OUT CHICAGO Box Set includes:Song for Athene | Svyati and other choral works (8.555256)Lament for Jerusalem (8.557826)Ex Maria Virgine (8.572168)The Protecting Veil | In Alium (8.554388)Piano Music | Pratir?pa | Ypako� | Palin | Mandoodles (8.570442)
