When I am not sure what to listen to classically then I seem to always pop this on, some lovely pieces and a beautiful performance in Salisbury Cathedral, well worth looking out, there a few CD copies on Discogs for not too much, I found it available to stream.

Looks interesting. I've seen Iona Brown perform a few times, but never conduct. Sadly I never will.When I am not sure what to listen to classically then I seem to always pop this on, some lovely pieces and a beautiful performance in Salisbury Cathedral, well worth looking out, there a few CD copies on Discogs for not too much, I found it available to stream.
