Digital Booklet
|
British vocal ensemble the Carice Singers devotes this album to choral works by contemporary British composers John Ireland and E.J. Moeran. Renowned for his outstanding piano miniatures and solo songs, Ireland is little known today as a composer of partsongs. His deep understanding of choral forces brings a unique polish and artistry to the genre, his early style reflecting a deference to his masters Parry and Stanford and deeply moving post-war masterpieces such as Twilight Night exploiting a more acerbic harmonic vocabulary. Moeran’s inclination towards introspective melancholy blends with his knowledge of Elizabethan madrigal and renaissance dance, resulting in true gems on themes of love such as While she lies sleeping. Pianist David Owen Norris accompanies the singers, who are also joined by guests on several pieces.
