This week we’ve settled into the wonderful acoustics at All Hallows Church in Gospel Oak to record a new album, ‘Radiant Dawn’.

We’re joined by the fabulous Matilda Lloyd, with C16th repertoire by Tallis & White alongside commissions from Deborah Pritchard & Richard Barnard.

12:45 this Friday! Programme contains some delights from Monteverdi, Certon, Duruflé, Tallis and of course the world premiere of our wonderful commission by Richard Barnard - Don’t miss out!
