Written in his final years, the Prelude and Idyll sourced music from a long discarded opera, transforming a story of lust and vengeance into one which emphasizes the transience of life and love. David Hill's previous BSO recordings include a \"perfectly judged\" Dies natalis by Gerald Finzi (The Guardian on 8.570417), while his Vaughan Williams Sancta Civitas (8.572424) was described as \"thrilling... a great case for a neglected work\". (Classic FM) Renowned for his fine musicianship, David Hill is widely respected as both a choral and an orchestral conductor. He became the Bach Choir's ninth Musical Director in 1998; he is also Chief Conductor of the BBC Singers and Associate Guest Conductor of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 O Du Mein Wille! \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Erhebt Eure Herzen \u003cbr\u003e1.3 In Dein Auge Schaute Ich JÜNGST \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Wehe Mir! \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Nacht Ist Es \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Auf Den Bergen \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Herauf!
