Vernon Handley - Dyson: St Paul's Voyage to Melita & Agincourt (2014)

Top quality and expertly crafted, these two works show Dyson’s love for words and voices. Linking these two major premier recordings, is a little gem — “The Nocturne” from Dyson’s Oratorio/Cantata ‘Quo Vadis’.

“How has this wonderful music – St. Paul’s Voyage to Melita & Agincourt – escaped the recording studio until now? Another feather, then, in the cap of SOMM, the independent record company, that continues to grow in value and importance”. British Music Society Journal
