About
Gregory Rose (b. 1948) absorbed the English choral tradition from his father, the Oxford conductor and composer Bernard Rose, expanding that inheritance with the techniques of European and American modernism, acquired in part during his own conducting career. This conspectus of over four decades of choral music presents a vivid combination of original compositions and agreeable arrangements, sung here with exultant virtuosity by one of Europe's leading choirs, conducted by Gregory Rose himself.

The vibrant Latvian Radio Choir, undaunted by the technical challenges confronting them, gives penetrating interpretations. The one that really works for me is a lovely, straightforward, unaccompanied setting of Scarborough Fair.
