Enchanted VoicesAbout
Enchanted Voices features 8 young sopranos sourced by Howard, who normally sing with choirs like The Sixteen and The Monteverdi, to capture an ethereal and angelic vocal set against an interweaving solo cello and occasional handbells. The album includes eight ‘Beatitudes’, blessed chants from the Book of Matthew, for groups whose actions or burdens single them out for tribute from Christ. His arrangements of biblical prose include ‘Beati Pauperes (Blessed are the Poor)’ and Beati Mundo Corde (Blessed are the Pure of Heart). There are also 4 new “Beatitudes” composed entirely by Howard, including ‘Pro curatis (For those that are cared for)’ and ‘Pro Eis Sine Domo (For the stateless)’, which sit alongside the original, flawless chants. In looking to fuse a modern approach to the style of ancient chants, it is undoubtedly this exploration that makes the collection such a unique and enchanting album.
