And we’re done! What a few days of recording that was! I think we’re all exhausted, but the brilliant music kept us going. Thank you to a wonderful team, for keeping energy and imagination going right to the final take. @BristolChoral @RMoore_ @_JoHarris @phillipamezzo

It was wonderful to hear @bbcsingers performance; we are also delighted that @BristolChoral @HilaryJCampbell are recording the work later this month as part of a special CD. It's so good when amateurs and professionals alike are able to enjoy discovering something 'new'!
