Benjamin Britten's Canticle IV (part 2) with Jacques Imbrailo, Andy Staples, Tim Mead, and Alisdair Hogarth, recorded in Britten's house library on his piano.
This is some of the most interesting music ever written by Britten, and these three guys sing it very well, indeed. For an excellent recording of Britten's five canticles, try the 1991 Hyperion disc featuring, Anthony Rolfe Johnson, Michael Chance, Alan Opie et al.This excerpt is from 'The Journey of the Magi'.
