( Commenti inglesi all' uscita del CD nel 2011 )
NEW ALBUM, LIVING VOICES, OUT NOW
"A superb recording" (Gramophone)
"A truly original communicator in modern British choral music" (The Observer)
"Breathtaking ... piercing intensity" (Christianity Today)
‘‘This album is extraordinary. It expands the experience of classical music beyond the edges of the traditional map of classical styles. The word "luminosity" describes the nature of celestial light, and the music of composer James Whitbourn is a celebration of that light -- peaceful, radiant and clear. ’’
Tom Manoff on Luminosity for NPR's All things considered
‘‘A dazzling collection of unashamedly tonal new music from James Whitbourn, the extravagantly talented composer, conductor, clinician, writer... Luminosity, his seven-movement celebration of the power of creative love, glows with hypnotic brilliance, fusing powerful vocal writing with seductive eastern influences, while his Evening Canticles for King's and his setting of a prayer by Desmond Tutu illustrate the boundless breadth of Whitbourn's choral imagination.’’
