About

Those who know the Albany Records catalogue know that we have the highest regard for George Lloyd and his music. If only listeners would give his music a chance, they would find it like a breath of fresh air. This recording of The Vigil of Venus is indeed the same one that was available for a short time on Argo in 1990. The music is stunningly beautiful and immediately appealing, full of George Lloyd "tunes". If you know the Symphonic Mass (TROY100) then you know what to expect from The Vigil of Venus. Lloyd writes so beautifully for chorus and orchestra.

"This is an absolute delight – a vast kaleidoscopic choral work. The choral and orchestral forces perform with genuine conviction. An extremely impressive release." – Fanfare
