About this product
George Lloyd will mostly remembered for his 12 Symphonies, but his compositions include Opera, Choral, Concerto, Piano and Chamber Music. In 2023 the Trustees of Lyrita Nimbus Arts reached an exclusive agreement with The George Lloyd Society to take over the sale, hire, archiving and preservation of all George Lloyd's scores as well as the commercial exploitation of the collection of recordings made by the Society in the 1990s and conducted by the composer. Because George Lloyd's personal attention is a dominating influence on the scores and recordings, which he mostly conducted himself, we have decided to headline this representation the 'Signature Collection'. Scores will be cleaned, and new orchestral parts created, recordings will be reorganised into collectable sets available on CD, Download and Streaming with new notes commissioned from Paul Conway.

![Various - Lloyd: A Litany & A Symphonic Mass - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/92dffb9d-c95f-47cc-88fd-1f723cdf3386.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Conceived on a grand scale, Lloyd's late choral works build fruitfully upon his previous experience in other genres. They share with his operas an innate lyricism, natural affinity with the human voice and feeling for the long line, while their structural balance, intensive working out of motifs and rich orchestral palette owes a significant debt to his prolific symphonic output. Chris de Souza writing in The Independent, 1998, described the Brighton Festival commission of A Symphonic Mass as 'perhaps the climax' of Lloyd's 'astonishing career'. In his review of the original of the present recording, Ivan March was moved to describe the Mass as 'one of the finest pieces of English choral writing of the twentieth century'.
![Vasks,P. / Lakstigala,Atvars - Sala Musica Appassionata Credo - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/02797f44-b7ca-44bf-8fab-77b4cc2529a1.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Esthetic games as ends in themselves are far from the mind of the Latvian composer Peteris Vasks. He believes in InchL'art pour l'hommeInch (Art for mankind) rather than InchL'art pour l'artInch (Art for art's sake). He sees his music as a language of the soul. This program features elegant performances of Sala, Musica appassionata and Credo from the Liepaja Symphony Orchestra led by conductor Atvars Lakstigala.
