Christopher GrayAbout
Since the first ‘Nine Lessons’ took place at Truro Cathedral on 24th December 1880, the service has been an annual highlight, with people coming from far and wide to experience the Christmas story told in words and music. The previous director of music, Robert Sharpe, instigated the now-firmly-established tradition that the choir premieres a newly-commissioned carol at this special service each year. Over the years, this has included some of the UK’s most gifted composers. There are several Truro commissions featured here, and seven first recordings in a refreshingly-different collection of music for Christmas.
Some reviews of previous Truro Cathedral choir releases:
‘...perfectly blended and balanced... a deeply impressive disc expertly steered by Christopher Gray. Bravo Truro! ’ – Gramophone
‘It is hard to imagine these works performed better.’ – American Record Guide
‘...uniformly excellent performances.’ – BBC Music Magazine
