The Dunedin Consort named in 20 Greatest Choirs by Gramophone
The Dunedin Consort named the 11th greatest choir!
We are thrilled that Dunedin Consort's groundbreaking recording of Handel's Samson has been nominated for a 2021 BBC Music Magazine Award in the Choral category!
The album was named Recording of the Month and received five stars for both performance and recording in the original review:
"John Butt has created the best Samson ever. He’s chosen the original 1743 version, star soloists with early-music chops and his band of top period instrumentalists. The choir’s performance is this production’s crowning glory." BBC Music Magazine
The winners are decided by public vote, so if you enjoyed this recording you can cast your vote here before 18th March. (Please read the instructions prior to voting to ensure your vote is counted.) The winners will be announced in April and we wish Dunedin Consort the best of luck!
