The City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra’s music director, Kazuki Yamada, is here joined by the ever-impressive CBSO Chorus, contralto Jess Dandy, tenor David Butt Philip and baritone Roderick Williams to perform Edward Elgar’s The Dream Of Gerontius. The piece was premiered at Birmingham Town Hall in 1900 and is widely considered to be the Worcestershire-born composer’s finest choral work.
