Conductor:
Benjamin Nicholas

Background: Light of the World is sung by one of the UK's newest and freshest choirs, Tewkesbury Abbey Choir School, conducted by Benjamin Nicholas. Firmly rooted in the English choral tradition, the choir has chosen for this recording a beautiful repertoire of music. The remarkable treble soloist, Andrew Swait, is just ten years old.

Tewkesbury Abbey, although less well known than its great neighbours, Gloucester, Worcester and Hereford, is a beautiful, historic and inspiring setting for this recording and shares their great musical heritage. It also offers a wonderful acoustic for these choral gems.
