Gifts for the ears and eyes


CD: A New Joy


 


Paul Hillier must be counted in the ranks of the world’s top choral conductors. Here, he leads the Theatre of Voices and Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir in performances of eight centuries of orthodox church music. Selections range from a 12th-century chant to Rachmaninoff’s Vespers, a towering 20th-century choral creation.
