Description
MacMillan: Miserere (CD) – The Sixteen
Composer: James MacMillan
Artists: The Sixteen
Conductor: Harry Christophers
Number of Discs: 1
Label: Coro
CD Release Date: November 8, 2011
In 2011, Harry Christophers and The Sixteen continued their work with Scotland’s most prominent living composer, James MacMillan, and released the premiere recording of his exquisite Miserere, for the CORO label. Based on Psalm 51, the Miserere has been set to music many times over the centuries, but few composers have tackled the complete text. Allegri was one such composer, whose reputation rests on that single work. CORO is delighted to have released the first recording of James MacMillan’s 21st-century take on the text. The disc also includes his O bone Jesu - a piece composed especially for The Sixteen - alongside a selection of The Strathclyde Motets and the Tenebrae Responsories.
