"Monuments" from Peter Hofmann (with St. Philips Choir) (1988)

Post by mawi »

Some days ago I found a hint to the album "Monuments" from the german tenor Peter Hofmann, when I searched for "St. Philips Choir".
And yes, the St. Philips Choir and Robert Prizeman are mentioned in relation to "Song of Joy", a well known song of the Angel Voices from the album "New Day".

But "Monuments" has been released in 1988, two years before "New Day". The Choir is singing alone till 1:18, followed by a melody which you certainly know from "Joyful, Joyful". And it's all a little bit slower

You can find "Monuments" as CD, MC and LP.
Here are some pictures.

Thank you Mawi, great find !! :D

A short sample can be heard here
As a matter of luck, the sample falls right on a St. Philip's choir part :)

"Joyful, joyful" is usually sung with a bit more vigor.
