the album cover for Poston / Mcphee / Vinther - Carols & Anthems

Tom Winpenny conducts this album of choral works by Elizabeth Poston (1905-1987) - an English composer renowned for her great sensitivity of word setting, a profound appreciation of ancient folk-song traditions, and timeless melodic charm. Performed by the Cathedral Girls Choir and Lay Clerks from St Albans Cathedral, located in her native Hertfordshire - this is the first album to be dedicated entirely to Poston's work. Includes many world premiere recordings.
