This piece was performed in the opening ceremony for the opening of Philharmonic Hall, now known as Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center. The sixteen singers were made up of the great opera singers of the time. There is a recording of this performance out there. Very very nice! Who are these singers? What is the group's name and origin? Thanks.

That might be the version on Sony with Bernstein conducting. Jon Vickers is outstanding. The British never comment on this version. New York Philharmonic.

This version, good though it is, has obvious limitations. Those who would like a studio recording should consider the version by Sir Adrian Boult, available from Amazon for $8. The CD includes The Lark Ascending; Fantasia on Greensleeves; English Folk Song Suite; In the Fen Country and Norfolk Rhapsody No. 1, but the Serenade alone is worth the price. The female vocalists in the ensemble are superb. The great climax at the center of the piece is remarkable.

It certainly is a "ballzy" version! It does not have that very nice, but less ballzy, British choir sound.

WOW! This is really good. We did a rendition of it in Okinawa japan with student orchestra at a local fine arts university. Our tenor that sang: Look how the floor of heaven Is thick inlaid with patines of bright gold Sucked ass... I sang baritone on this song. Unfortunately I didnt get a solo because our show choir composed of 13 students got the solos which I was bummed about. Nice job tho. Dang that piano player is great. 5/5 stars. =D

ABSOLUTELY!!! I have yet to hear any version match it, even with new recording technology. But what would you expect from a conductor who knew the composer personally? The opening bars are exactly what I would like to hear as I am passing from the earth. It's like an opening to Heaven,...... Rachmaninoff called this piece "the most perfect piece of music ever written",... and we all know how often dour old Sergei praised anything!
Very very nice! Who are these singers? What is the group's name and origin? Thanks.
