Schneider, Sara. KMFA Classical 89.5. November 2016. 

"What We're Loving Right Now," is an ongoing series in which Sara Schneider asks KMFA staff members about favorite recordings from their personal music libraries.

David Hammond, KMFA's Director of Development, loves A New Heaven, a 2009 release featuring The Sixteen, directed by Harry Christophers.

David says, "I love this album. It has wonderful Victorian anthems by composers like Parry and Gardiner, the kind of stuff I love to sing myself. The music is really rich and lush, and the organ playing is great. I listen to it on trips, and in the car. The music is transcendent, it takes you to another place, and the imagery in the poetry is beautiful too."
