Alexander Grechaninov, Passion Week
John Newton, engineer (Charles Bruffy, Phoenix Bach Choir & Kansas City Chorale), Chandos
This Chandos Records release dominates the Classical categories, with five nominations: Best Classical Album, Best Choral Performance, Best Engineered Album (Classical) and inclusion in the nomination of Blanton Alspaugh for Producer of the Year, Classical, plus nomination for Best Surround Sound Album (a non-Classical category). The gorgeous work by Russian-American composer Alexander Grechaninov (a contemporary of Rachmaninov), is a cycle of sacred music meant to be sung during Russian Orthodox Passion Week—here, performed by the Phoenix Bach Choir and the Kansas City Chorale, conducted by Charles Bruffy. The Hybrid SACD release was recorded by Grammy-winning engineer John Newton, founder of Boston’s Sound Mirror, a fully digital facility whose expertise stretches back to testing the first Lexicon Opus and Sonic 24-channel editor.
