Precious Things is released

Bernard Hughes’s choral album Precious Things has been released. Described by Master of the Queen’s Music Judith Weir as ‘choral music as we rarely hear it – generous, light-footed, surprising’, as ‘sublime’ by The Scotsman and ‘direct and singable’ by The Arts Desk, it appeared at no.25 in the classical charts in its week of release. It featured the Epiphoni Consort, conducted by Tim Reader, and is available on Delphian Records - and on all streaming services. Here is a short film of Bernard talking about the album Precious Things and here is a video of Epiphoni performing the opening track, Perhaps.
