About

This collection features some of Britten’s more intimate works, written for particular occasions with his great skills and distinction. This performance of Missa Brevis marked the retirement of George Malcolm.

These are superb performances…” - Gramophone (Elizabethan Singers)

This disc contains rare choral music by Britten, much of it on CD for the first time. It also contains the first and much sought-after release on CD of George Malcolm’s recording of the Missa Brevis.
