Lumina

Description

Debut solo recording from Westminster Kantorei, an ensemble dedicated to the study and performance of early music at the renowned Westminster Choir College.From a stunning single line of chant to the explosive polyphony of William Byrd and J.S. Bach, each of the works on LUMINA is in some way related to light s presence in our life journey: exploring faith, death, love and transcendence.Repertoire spans the mystical 12th-century chant of Hildegard von Bingen through the Renaissance and Baroque eras, plus two Romantic-period gems based on the compositional styles of those earlier composers.
