"Where except in the present can the eternal be met?" - C S Lewis

The Rodolfus Choir return to disc on Signum with a stunning new collection of choral works drawn from composers spanning over 500 years.

Ralph Allwood MBE introduces the programme and the personal inspiration behind it: "The concept of time is so rich that it has inspired a large body of writing and musical setting. This collection is a tribute to my father, because I learnt so much about time from him. Mathematician and philosopher, theologian, musician and physicist, he was fascinated by our perception of time, and he and I had many discussions about its nature. In a trivial sense, music traces the passage of time, but also, as with all events, manipulates it. A watch traces a different pattern of time during events. But who is to say that the watch is ‘right’."
