The London Choral Sinfonia presents a captivating blend of French choral music under the direction of Michael Waldron, with soloists Nick Pritchard and Miriam Allan. Their new album includes Jean Langlais’ monumental masterpiece “Messe Solennelle,” accompanied by staples of the choral repertoire: Gabriel Fauré’s “Cantique de Jean Racine” and César Franck’s “Psalm 150”. The album also features hidden gems such as Marcel Dupré’s “Quatre Motets,” as well as fresh arrangements of Franck’s “Panis Angelicus” and Gounod’s “Ave Verum” by Composer-in-Residence, Owain Park. These reimagined pieces breathe new life into beloved favourites. Under Michael Waldron’s direction, the LCS continues its tradition of excellence, blending celebrated works with lesser-known treasures, and winning new audiences with its rich romantic colours and innovative interpretations.
