Two sparkling highlights of the choral repertoire - Puccini's Messa di Gloria and Rossini's Stabat Mater.
Two Italian choral masterpieces: Puccini's sparkling Messa di Gloria (1880), written with all the freshness of youth (the composer was only 22) was undeservedly neglected until its rediscovery in 1952Rossini's Stabat Mater (1841), dates from later in the composer's lifeVery different from his secular compositions, nevertheless critics attacked it as "too worldly, sensuous, too playful for the religious subject" – precisely the qualities which have given the work an immediate and lasting appealSung by Colchester Choral Society with Colchester Sinfonia, conducted by Ian RaySoloists: Catherine May (soprano), Catherine Carby (mezzo-soprano), Daniel Joy (tenor) and Ed Ballard (bass)
