Early in 2009, Bristol Chamber Choir will be recording a new CD of previously unrecorded choral works. The CD will be commercially available on the Priory Records label.

The recording is particularly special as it will be the premiere recording of two Requiem masses - both related to the choir.

BCC will have the prestigious honour of being the first to record the recently rediscovered Requiem by Robert Pearsall - a founder member of the choir in 1837 and noted composer. As the first ever recording of this work, the CD will naturally carry some importance in the music industry as a reference recording for this work.

Alongside that, the choir will also record works by Raymond Warren, Kevin Duggan and Peter Flinn - as well as the Requiem of Loss by current Musical Director Edward-Rhys Bate.

The CD will be available to pre-order shortly.
