About This Item
Estonia provides the starting point and goal for this disc of sacred music for male choir, with a traditional hymn followed by works by composers such as Kreek, Eespere and Lemba, and the closing de prefunds by Arvo Part. In between Orphei Drangar take in music by composers from the Nordic countries, France, Italy, Central Europe and the UK. Throughout a program ranging from Rossini's Preghiera from c. 1860 to Sven-David Sandstorm's Sanctus, composed for the choir in 2010, Orphei Drangar and Rydinger Alin once again demonstrate the versatility and exalted standards that habitually causes the choir to be described as the finest male-voice choir in the world.
