Gustaf Sjökvist conductor

This disc of vocal music includes Samuel Barber’s Agnus Dei (his choral arrangement of the famous Adagio for Strings), Swedish songs by Alfven and others and finishes with a selection of spirituals for which Barbara Hendricks is famous.

This recording marks the 10th anniversary of the Gustaf Sjökvist Chamber Choir and reflects the close rapport that has built up over the years between soloist and choir.
