In the thirty years since the National Youth Choirs of Great Britain were born, they have continued to blossom and flourish. New director Ben Parry was quick to notice they share their birthday in 2013 with Brittens centenary, and the result is this celebratory double album. Over the course of a year the Delphian engineers have followed the various choirs on their courses, and for the first time all seven groups appear on disc six hundred singers, eight conductors, in three different venues. The vast range of Brittens choral output encompasses work to match the character of each of the different choirs, from the fresh-faced eagerness of the Training Choirs to the maturity and sophistication of the elite Chamber Choir. The rigorous training all these singers enjoy bears abundant fruit. Their vocal discipline, their energy, their sheer enthusiasm are vividly conveyed in this unique double birthday celebration.
"This is a very fine collection which will give much pleasure. The singing is skilful throughout. Above all, the listener consistently feels the commitment and enthusiasm of these young musicians...It was a particularly happy idea to include contributions from all the constituent elements, showing the developmental progression that s possible for young singers within this remarkable organisation. We read so many alarming reports these days about the apparent decline in musical education in British schools, especially in the state sector, it s very reassuring to remember that there are organisations such as this - and the youth orchestras - that keep the flag flying so well. I think Benjamin Britten would have loved this album and that he d rejoice to know that these young people are being so effectively trained, not just in his music but in the joys of singing."
