'I Love all Beauteous Things' explores a great collection of works by the British Composer Herbert Howells, featuring performances of some of his lesser-known choral and organ music.
The Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin have had a long and prosperous history: they were recorded as having taken part in the first performance of Handel's 'Messiah' in 1742. Since 1972 the new mixed voice choir, lead by Judy Martin, has been highly active with concerts tours and regular broadcasts for the RTĒ and BBC, as well as continuing worship in the cathedral.

"This album is a welcome addition to the recorded works of Howells both on account of the repertoire it covers and because of its fine performances. This choir and Signum records might well have hit on a winning formula here, and their association is defiantly one to watch.”
Ed Breen - Musical Criticism.com
"…For revelatory Howells recently recorded, try Christ Church Dublin’s choir on Signum Classics.”
