Description Shipping information

From Ikon comes Howells: King David & Sine Nomine, a classical and rock album on Hyperion. This is the CD edition. This edition was released on October 3, 2025.

Herbert Howells was perhaps the most distinctive and revered composer of sacred choral music in 20th-century Britain. However, his non-sacred music has been long neglected; this album unearths Howells's little-known secular choral music. 12 of the 14 tracks here represent repertoire that is completely new to UMG. New arrangements by Iain Farrington have been specially made for this recording, including Howells's famous "King David" and the title track "Sine nomine." Ikon comprises the UK's foremost singers brought together to form one superchoir. David Hill MBE has held conducting posts with the Bach Choir, BBC Singers and Yale Schola Cantorum. Featuring starry soloists Ruairi Bowen (tenor), Hilary Cronin (soprano), Charlie Lovell-Jones (violin) and Iain Farrington (piano).
