Original release with no significant reissues listed in the Discography

Whereas little is known of Fordham University Glee Club’s first recording of the Miserere, by contrast this recording at the Glee Club’s 50th Annual Concert in 1973 is well documented, and has been preserved and made available by the present Glee Club. The Miserere is presented in a section of sacred music alongside works by Perotin, and a rousing performance of Hassler’s ‘Cantate Domino’. Later pieces in the concert include some fine close harmony singing – especially ‘Mr Sandman’ by the “Ramblers of Rose Hill”
