Product description ERA 398421659; ERATO - Francia; desertcart.co.uk Building on the enormous success of the first Agnus Dei disc, its successor offers more of the same musical mood but with a few surprises too. One of the hits of the first album was John Cameron's arrangement of Elgar's "Nimrod", using the words of the Lux Aeterna. Here he really rolls his sleeves up, and similarly tackles the Albinoni/Giazzoto Adagio (using the words of The Beatitudes) and the Intermezzo from Bizet's second L'Arlésienne Suite (using the text of the Agnus Dei). The role of the orchestra (the excellent ensemble Capricorn) has been expanded, and Edward Higginbottom himself has arranged a delicious string septet accompaniment to Brahms' Geistliches Lied. Much of the music is of the kind that the choir obviously eats for breakfast--which is not to say that they ever sound bland or tired, just at home. The one weak track is Monteverdi's Beatus Vir, which needs voices of more sophistication and agility than the boys can provide. That aside, this is another album which should do their reputation no harm. --Warwick Thompson Review: choral - a treat for chorale lovers. Review: The New College choir have beautiful voices which can't be faulted - Lovely music, and very relaxing to listen to.. The New College choir have beautiful voices which can't be faulted.

E' il sendo cd Agnus dei che non ha niente da invidiare al primo. E' bello anche questo ha un ritmo un po' piu' movimentato.

Part II of a set, which I ordered separately. As I said about the first one, this is what I think the music in heaven must sound like. Very soothing and uplifting, not at all busy or irritating like some choral music can be. Five stars!
