Max aria, Freischutz

Stets soll nur dir, Tannhauser

Kleinzack, Hoffmann

Divine Love
available on i-tunes

‘Oh the music in church is so dreary!’ How frequently have I heard this statement, and sadly it’s so often true. I believe passionately in the strength and beauty of our long-established church music in Britain, but like every form  of  music  it  wants inspiring performance. To the traditionalist this CD might be  provocative, like a red rag to a bull,  but for those not  familiar with the music, I hope it will open their ears to the beauty and excitement of church music. I have chosen time-honoured compositions and sung them as written, but they have been transformed by the modern touch of the accompaniment. The melodies are wonderful and adapt easily to contemporary interpretation. The vast majority of us attend church only for christenings, weddings or funerals, so I have based my selection of music for these occasions. I hope this CD will provide the listener with the opportunity to choose music from our great sacred musical heritage, with a contemporary touch for their special occasions.
As a ‘son of the vicarage’, Drummond Walker was introduced to church music at an early age and it remained an important influence on him.
