Once again the Glasgow Phoenix Choir have come up with another truly classic album. The album was recorded to satisfy the demands of the public and radio sations for favourite hymns and sacred music. To this end some of the best loved hymns are included, such as “How Great Thou Art” and “Abide With Me”, “Love Divine All Loves Excelling”, and “Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah”. These are joined by Scottish favourites “Morning Has Broken”, set to the Gaelic air “Bunessan”, and “The Lords My Shephard” to the psalm tune “Crimond”. Featuring is one of Britains top composers, John rutter – who gave the well loved “For The Beauty Of The Earth” to the choral world. The evocative tune “Bethany” with the words of “Nearer My God To Thee” reputed to have been sung by the doomed passengers on the “RMS Titanic”, is just one of the many other inspirational and well loved hymns. This album has a total of 18 tracks.
