Mäntyjärvi - Choral Music

Recorded in January 2018, January 2019 and January 2020. Released October 2020.

“So accustomed are those of us who review choral music to enjoying flawless excellence from [Trinity College Choir] … that we have come almost to take it for granted.” – Music Web International

The stylistic pluralism which informs so much contemporary choral writing pays rich dividends in the work of Jaakko Mäntyjärvi. This thrilling programme includes the Trinity Service – a complete set of Evensong music created by the composer for Trinity College Choir including newly-composed Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis (2019).
