The Sealed Angel

Album by Rodion Shchedrin & Choir of Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge & Geoffrey Webber & London Choir of King’s College & David Trendell

The Sealed Angel is an oratorio by Russian composer Rodion Shchedrin, composed in 1988. The work blends Russian Orthodox chant and folk-inspired melodies with dense choral textures and modest instrumental support, and occupies a late-career position in Shchedrin's output that revisits liturgical and vernacular Russian musical traditions.
