★★★★★ ''The total articulation of every note, whirring middle lines included, the forward momentum...at every twist and turn, the refusal to sentimentalise the big melodies.'' - The Arts Desk The London Philharmonic Orchestra gives a brilliant performance of Rachmaninoff's stunning choral symphony, ''The Bells.'' His sumptuous choral symphony is an odyssey through the wide spectrum of human emotion told through 4 distinct bells - Silver Sleigh Bells, Wedding Bells, Alarm Bells, and finally, somber Mourning Bells. Led by conductor Edward Gardner, the London Philharmonic Choir, and soloists Kristina Mkhitaryan, Dmytro Popov, and Kostas Smoriginas, this concert is full of emotional intensity and brilliant singing.
