When First Thine Eies Unveil

This recording brings together, for the first time, Howells complete extant
Latin church music for Westminster Cathedral, composed when he was a student of Stanford at the RCM. It also features other significant, rarely-heard music, including a first recording of the extraordinary Holst-like anthem When first thine eies unveil and another premiere, Levavi oculos, Paul Spicer s reconstruction of a wedding anthem for Hereford Cathedral. This is the third recording in a continuing collaboration
between SOMM and Paul Spicer s Birmingham Conservatoire Chamber Choir, which continues to yield many riches.
