About

The choral director, composer and musicologist, Clytus Gottwald (b. 1925) who founded Schola Cantorum Stuttgart, has, in the last 25 years, turned his attention to complex and masterly choral arrangements of works from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His approach to the choral medium is a highly symphonic one. In most of the arrangements performed here the choir is divided up into no less than sixteen parts, spread across the spectrum of voices, and Gottwald's careful blending and balancing of the different voice-types result in a highly subtle, yet varied palate.
 
The Rodolfus Choir was founded in 1983 by Ralph Allwood, Precentor and Director of Music at Eton College. Its members, aged up to 25, are chosen from students of the Eton Choral Courses. Each year these six summer courses attract some 350 young singers, and of these only a dozen of the best are invited to join the Rodolfus Choir.
