CORO
Disc No: COR 16015
Price: Sek. 160 Despite the mystic beauty of his music, John Tavener's place in Western music is a controversial one. His desire to create musical ikons for a time in which he believes 'man has lost his belief not only in God, but also in himself' is provocative. Yet part of the attraction of his music must surely arise from its symbolic nature, a reflection of his deeply-held Orthodox faith.
This collection celebrates a wide range of Tavener's choral output and includes his immediately popular setting of William Blake's The Lamb, and the luminously spiritual Ikon of Light.
