St George's Chapel Choir - Hymns And Anthems From Windsor Castle
STYLE: Choral RATING OUR PRODUCT CODE: 4359-4514 LABEL: Word WMD028 FORMAT: CD Album RRP: £2.50
Reviewed by Simon Carpenter
A delightful selection of 20 hymns, short anthems and the odd worship song performed by Windsor Castle's resident professional choir. There is some excellent singing here from the 26 strong mixed voice choir, including 15 boy trebles. Most of the tracks are taken from the pages of Hymns Ancient And Modern, ("For The Beauty Of The Earth", "Thy Hand O Lord Has Guided", etc), but there are also fresh arrangements of the worship songs, "There Is A Redeemer" and "Jesus, Name Above All Names". A Cathedral-type choir singing Melody Green's classic? It grows on you, I assure you.
