The Complete Sacred Choral Music of Alice Mary Smith

In June Robert played the 1913 Walker organ at St Saviour’s Church, Richmond Hill, Leeds, for the Eoferwic Consort's new recording of the complete sacred choral works of Alice Mary Smith (1839-1884), one of the most prolific female composers from the Victorian period.

The recording is based on newly published scholarly edition of Alice Mary Smith's choral music by Leonard Sanderman. The project was funded the AHRC, through the White Rose College of Arts and Humanities. For further information as well as PDF files of the scores, please see Leonard Sanderman's website. 

Robert accompanied the following three tracks:

• Out of the Deep
• O praise the Lord
• By the waters of Babylon

The complete album is also available for streaming on SoundCloud.
