Introducing the forthcoming release of 'Arthur Sullivan: Songs for Tenor' from @davidpwebb @aamorchestra and @jkaconductor . In this debut recording of songs, arias and duets from tenor David Webb, composer Arthur Sullivan emerges as both a figure of Savoy theatre polish, and as a composer of clarity and restraint. Drawing on years of experience with this repertoire, the artists bring an ease that feels instinctive and assured. With the Academy of Ancient Music, this is the first recording of Gilbert and Sullivan on period instruments, offering a sound closer to that heard in Victorian drawing rooms, concert halls and band stands than the modern pit.

Coming soon... Marking 400 years since Orlando Gibbons’s death, harpsichordist @friederikechylek presents a programme of English keyboard music from Orlando Gibbons, William Byrd, and John Bull. The recital shows how Byrd’s vocal-inspired counterpoint, Bull’s virtuosic keyboard style, and Gibbons’s synthesis of both contributed to the development of English keyboard music. This recording presents Gibbons not simply as the ‘end of an era,’ but as a composer who brought together the ideas of his predecessors while exploring new possibilities for the keyboard. An accessible introduction for listeners discovering English keyboard music and a solid overview for those familiar with the repertoire.

Performed by the choir under Will Dawes, the album presents both a cappella and piano accompanied pieces—from music for Advent to works celebrating queer identity, and secular settings reflecting on light and the passing of day. It is an intimate and assured collection, moving between moments of contemplative stillness and radiant, lyrical choral writing. Moonrise offers a compelling first introduction to Churcher’s developing voice, alive with clarity, warmth, and immediacy of expression. @cfchurcher @somervillechoir

⭐New Albums out now⭐ Listen on @spotify or wherever you get your music👇 Martin🎶https://orcd.co/egy77a7 Goossens, Bliss & Howells🎧https://orcd.co/m5oqq9p Matthew Martin stands among Britain’s leading composers for choir and organ. Performed by The Choir of Canterbury Cathedral under David Newsholme, with Jamie Rogers at the organ recently rebuilt by Harrison & Harrison, this programme reflects Martin’s close association with Canterbury. The album spans the jubilant Psalm 150, first heard in Manchester, and the direct, concentrated writing of the Coventry Missa brevis, to the stillness of Ave verum and the dramatic narrative of When David heard. An Evensong sequence reveals Martin’s instinct for liturgical form, while the organ work concludes the collection with clarity and purpose. Several pieces are recorded here for the first time, offering a focused survey of a distinctive contemporary voice. In the years immediately leading up to the First World War the Royal College of Music in London welcomed three of the most brilliant young musicians of their generation as students: Eugene Goossens, Arthur Bliss, and Herbert Howells. Close friends as they became, their musical personalities nevertheless evolved over the following years as notably distinct from one another. This disc brings something of their individual characteristics to the fore through a selection of their rarely performed solo songs, including four first recordings and three unpublished works. The songs are performed by tenor James Geer and pianist Ronald Woodley in this continuation of their long-standing partnership. @cburycathedral @ronald__woodley

Today we celebrate #EarthDay 2026 by looking back on our recording of composer Eleanor Alberga's Symphony No. 1 'Strata'. This symphony is a portrait of our planet Earth, with each movement inspired by a different stratum of the planet’s geological make-up.
