Williamson: The World at the Manger; Agnus Dei

Malcolm Williamson became Master of the Queen’s Musick in 1975, but this disc represents his first new recording in 19 years. These religious works, largely conceived for amateurs, are suitably direct and approachable. The performances are confident, the sound atmospheric. Terry Barfoot
