Scottish Ensemble - Tavener: Tears of the Angels - Billboard

This audiophile album from the Scottish Linn label shouldn't be overlooked. Featuring spitfire violinist Clio Gould and her BT Scottish Ensemble, the set comprises three new Tavener works, including the touching title track for violin and strings (which is an instrumental version of "Song of the Angel" on the Harmonia Mundi album). The moving 25 minute, "Depart in Peace" stars Gould with bell-toned soprano Patricia Rozario, while "My Gaze Is Ever Upon You" is a pastoral feature for solo violin and tape.
