Background: The Choir of Westminster Abbey under their inspirational director, James O’Donnell continue their exploration of the rich repertoire of the liturgy in its historical context in the Abbey with music for the Feast of the Ascension.

Ascension Day is a particular moment of celebration within the annual round of Easter praise and is celebrated in glorious and triumphal language. The works recorded here represent a wide range of the best of liturgical music, starting from the intricate and joyful writing of the sixteenth-century composer Peter Philips and ending with fascinating and appealing pieces by living composers. Along the way are works from the great flowering of English cathedral music in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
