Choirs of Type: Cathedral Choir
1963 – Regensburger Domspatzen
A particularly fine rendition of the Miserere without abbellimenti, although this early pressing is far less acceptable than the later releases of the same recording.
1965 – Regensburger Domspatzen
A particularly fine rendition of the Miserere without abbellimenti. Reissued by RCA Victor Canada.
1967 – Guildford Cathedral Choir
A fabulous parallel to the King’s College ‘Evensong for Ash Wednesday’ – ‘Music for Passiontide’ also ends with the Miserere in English, a refreshing performance of equal merit which is further enhanced by its placement as the last item in this Passiontide collection.
1971 – Guildford Cathedral Choir
Guildford Cathedral Choir toured the north-west of England during the summer of 1971, and this private recording was made at the final concert of the series on 30th July 1971 at the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. The music was sung from different locations within the building. The Miserere is sung in English.
1976 – St Paul’s Cathedral Choir
A private recording made during Evensong at St Paul’s Cathedral in March 1976, with the cathedral choir, directed by Barry Rose. The solo quartet sang from the Whispering Gallery. [ARCM]
1976 – The Choir of Winchester Cathedral
This second Golden Hour from Winchester again draws on the inexhaustible riches of the church music repertory to present a sample of some of the different types and styles heard in the course of the cathedral’s day to day life. [from the cover notes]
1977 – Regensburger Domspatzen
A particularly fine rendition of the Miserere without abbellimenti, this pressing is much more acceptable in terms of audio characteristics than the earlier pressing in the Archive.
1991 – St Paul’s Cathedral Choir
The first published recording by the Choir of St Paul’s Cathedral to include Allegri’s Miserere.
2000 – St Paul’s Cathedral Choir
