HERBERT HOWELLS (1892-1983): Jubilate Deo, Thee will I love, The Winchester Service, Come, my soul, Te Deum, Coventry Antiphon, Antiphon, The fear of the Lord, Exultate Deo, Solo organ: Rhapsody No. 4, A Flourish for a Bidding.

Description: Although almost all of Howell's best-known and most-performed church music comes from the 1940s and 50s, he kept right on providing it almost until his death. The works recorded here date from 1961 to 1976 and, while a bit more difficult to perform, it still has the composer's ability to transcend mere liturgy to produce his characteristic mystical power which attracts believer and non-believer alike with its depth and beauty. Texts included. Simon Bell (organ), Winchester Cathedral Choir; Andrew Lumsden.
