The choir of Westminster Cathedral, directed by George Malcolm, recorded on six 78rpm 13-inch discs by the BBC for use in a radio programme entitled Liturgy and Redemption broadcast on 6 April 1950.
A recording believed made during the annual Choral Concert in 1967 which featured the Caltech Glee Club, the UCLA Women’s Choir, and the Caltech Chamber Singers.
Founded in 1973 by Gavin Turner, the William Byrd Choir was the first outside choir (apart from the Sistine Chapel Choir itself) to record in the Sistine Chapel, with the BBC in June 1980. Their recording, which included Allegri’s Miserere alongside works by Palestrina was broadcast on BBC Radio 3 a month later. The recording was produced by Miserere scholar Hugh Keyte.
