Listen to Lament in December

Philharmonia Voices sung Lament in December at the premiere of The Cool Web on October 30th 2014. The choir’s performance was sublime, so controlled and delicate.  Aidan Oliver (the director of PV) is meticulous during his choir only rehearsals.  He considers every sentance, syllable and word.
