Musical Dynasties
With Richard Baker. Given a family tree that links them to the founder of Methodism, it is not surprising that the composing Wesleys contributed a great deal to the repertoire of the church. But Samuel Wesley - a passionate admirer of Bach - moved into orchestral and chamber music too. The programme includes:
Charles Wesley Prelude and Fugue in A minor
Simon Lindley (organ)
Samuel Wesley Blessed Be the God and Father
Choir of St Paul 's Cathedral, Andrew Lucas (organ), conductor John Scott
