Evensong Live 2016

The Choir of King’s College, Cambridge Douglas Tang & Tom Etheridge organ Directed by Stephen Cleobury Released 8 July 2016 1CD

The tracks on this album were recorded live during Evensong services in the 2014-2015 academic year, as part of the College’s regular Chapel webcasts. This second collection of treasures provides a snapshot of the ensemble during a fleeting moment in its five-century history, and a glimpse of the daily music making that is so integral to life at King’s. “Afficionados of often challenging Anglican Church music should not hesitate” – Classic FM **** – BBC Music Magazine
