In an age when church attendance in England was flourishing, Samuel Sebastian Wesley (1810-1876) was one of the foremost composers and organists of his day. Taking advantage of new developments in instrument building, Wesley was able to push the boundaries of English church music in a new direction, encompassing a more ambitious, even operatic style. In this recording - the first to have been made using an organ similar in design to his own - Wesley's music is brought to vibrant life by the young professional singers of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre under conductor Toby Ward.
