Voices of Connection: 02/27 Born on this day in 1848: english composer hubert parry

Usually, we share pieces on the shorter side for your morning pleasure. But this is Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry's birthday, so let’s honor him with one of his more extended pieces – the grandest of grand British Cathedral anthems. It starts with a marvelous, long organ introduction, then the choir comes in, and off we go through a fabulous choral journey that leads to a truly glorious, radiant conclusion. – Dennis Keene
