John Scott: St Paul's Cathedral Choir - Hear my prayer

This recording features St Paul�s Cathedral Choir at the peak of their power, performing a yearning sequence of liturgical works that includes some of the best-loved choral works of all time: Mendelssohn�s Hear my prayer (�O for the wings of a dove�), an excerpt from Brahms�s Ein deutsches Requiem, and Allegri�s Miserere. Twentieth-century �mystics� Jonathan Harvey and Sir John Tavener are both represented, and the album reaches a crescendo through the expansive writing of Stanford in G and the joyously declamatory Te Deum by Benjamin Britten.
