"John Rutter's profound understanding of choral writing shines through, in this broad range of sacred and secular works, showcasing Australian and English choirs."

This compilation from ABC Classics showcases the choral music of John Rutter, featuring both Australian and English choirs.

Rutter is much loved internationally, with a prolific choral output. His compositional foundations lie firmly in the English choral tradition. Just occasionally his music can sound twee, but there is exquisite beauty and idiomatic craft to be found in much of his writing, which should see his vocal music performed in perpetuity.
