Julian Anderson Alleluia
Beethoven Symphony No. 9 in D minor
"Here the choir was on expressive form, hitting their notes fairly and squarely, with all sections working in perfectly balanced coordination."
"It shared the programme with Beethoven’s Ninth, in which the choir’s articulation was equally pristine, with the sopranos in particular hurling themselves fearlessly at some distinctly awkward writing."
