|||||
For an Unknown Soldier is a cantata of remembrance to mark the centenary of the First World War. Commissioned by the London Mozart Players, Jonathan Dove’s poignant work combines the words of war poets such as Wilfred Owen, William Noel Hodgson and Isaac Rosenberg with choral performances from tenor Nicky Spence, the Oxford Bach Choir and the Portsmouth Grammar School Chamber Choir. It is paired on this album with Dove’s An Airmail Letter from Mozart, directed from the piano by Melvyn Tan.
