description
The present inexpensive recording by Christopher Robinson and the Choir of St John’s College, Cambridge, makes an excellent entry point into Rubbra’s sacred music. The Missa Cantuariensis was composed for Canterbury Cathedral, whereas the Missa in honorem Sancti Dominici (1948) was written for the Catholic Rite. Both are crafted beautifully and elevated in feeling. The first Nocturn (which comprises three motets) of the Tenebrae was written in 1951, and a further two Nocturns followed ten years later. They are anguished and eloquent expressions of faith. This deeply satisfying recording is completed by the Meditation for organ, which was written for James Dalton, and Bernard Rose’s transcription of the Prelude and Fugue on a Theme of Cyril Scott, a seventieth-birthday tribute to Rubbra’s first teacher. The performances are quite outstanding and well recorded. • Penguin Guide, January 2009
