This richly varied collection of meditative sacred music takes its name, Agnus Dei, from the opening item, a setting for voices of Samuel Barber’s celebrated and deeply expressive Adagio for Strings. The hauntingly melodic choral masterpieces that fill these two CDs span five centuries and are the work of composers such as Bach, Mozart, Allegri, Albinoni, Fauré, Rachmaninov, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Elgar and, from nearer our own time, John Tavener and Henryk Górecki. They are performed by the choir of New College Oxford, an exemplar of Britain’s great choral tradition.

Great Choir classics
The first CD that I received had a problem but it was exchanged. Both CDs work great.

Quality Sound
It took quite a while to get to us from England but worth the wait. Good fidelity and pleasant listening.

J'avais acheté ce même double cd il y a 25ans (déjà !) et je l'écoutais très souvent. Comme je l'ai perdu, je suis contente d'avoir pu le racheter.Apaisant, spirituel, inspirant.Pour se reposer l'esprit, méditer...Une musique angélique.Je recommande
