Experience the grandeur of St Paul’s Cathedral through this uplifting collection of classic hymns, beautifully performed by The Choir of St Paul’s Cathedral under the direction of John Scott, with Christopher Dearnley at the organ and the English Brass Ensemble.

Drawn from The New English Hymnal, this album brings together timeless favourites including Praise, my soul, the King of heaven, O worship the King, and Now thank we all our God. Each track captures the splendour of the Cathedral’s unique acoustic and the devotion of the choir, enhanced by the brilliance of brass and organ accompaniment.

Featuring descants by John Scott and memorable solo performances from Geoffrey Shaw, Philip Salmon, and other distinguished Cathedral musicians, this recording embodies the spirit of Anglican worship and the musical excellence of St Paul’s.

A truly inspiring collection for lovers of sacred choral music and a perfect reflection of the Cathedral’s musical heritage.
