Paul McCreesh on 2024 Gramophone Award
Paul McCreesh, Founder and Artistic Director of Gabrieli, reflects on winning Gramophone’s 2024 Choral Award with Elgar’s The Dream of Gerontius.
A pioneering period-instrument recording featuring Anna Stéphany, Nicky Spence, Andrew Foster-Williams, Gabrieli Roar, Polish National Youth Choir, Gabrieli Consort and Players, and Paul McCreesh won the 2024 Gramophone Choral Award.
In an interview filmed on the evening of the Gramophone Classical Music Awards, McCreesh talks about the creative process behind the album and the critical importance of an inclusive approach to involving children in performances and recordings of classical music.
