Jóhannsson's Drone Mass on Sounds Choral

Host Gabriel Crouch introduces listeners to Jóhann Jóhannsson's Drone Mass on Sounds Choral this Sunday (9/22). Jóhannsson passed away in 2018.

Gabriel Crouch is Director of Choral Activities and Senior Lecturer in Music at Princeton University. He began his musical career as an eight-year-old in the choir of Westminster Abbey, where he performed a solo at the wedding of HRH Prince Andrew and Miss Sarah Ferguson. After completing a choral scholarship at Trinity College, Cambridge, he was offered a place in the renowned a cappella group The King's Singers in 1996. In the next eight years he made a dozen recordings on the BMG label (including a grammy nomination), and gave more than 900 performances in almost every major concert venue in the world.
