Swimming Over London is a studio album of jazz-inspired hits and recent commissions performed by the King's Singers, and is a follow up to their Grammy Award - winning crossover album Simple Gifts. This album covers a huge range of pop and jazz-inspired influences-from old favorites (Nat King Cole's Straighten Up And Fly Right, Arlen & Gershwin's It's a New World and Hogey Carmichael's Lazy Bones) to modern hits (Michael Buble's Home, Jason Mraz's I'm Yours and Imogen Heaps Hide And Seek). Commissions especially for the album come from Bob Chilcott, Mia Makaroff, Ysaye M. Barnwell and Roger Treece. A special King's Singers arrangement of Mika's By the Time is also featured, inspired by their performance with him for the 2009 Mencap Little Noise sessions at the Union Chapel.

"This recording presents violinist Kati Debretzeni leading the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment in Antonio Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. From the commanding heat of the Summer sun, to Winter’s foreboding darkness, the power of Vivaldi’s masterpiece is inescapable. The booklet includes a ‘Guided tour of the Four Seasons’, allowing listeners to follow the poetry that inspired Vivaldi as they hear the performances on the disc, including additional composer notes from Vivaldi’s own scores."

Nearly 10 years after his debut recital recording, virtuoso clarinetist Julian Bliss returns to disc with a new program alongside pianist Bradley Moore. Their recital combines great works (and some new arrangements) from Russian and French composers of the 19th – 20th centuries. One of the most talented young musicians of our time, and an enthusiastic and prolific chamber player, Julian Bliss’ list of professional honors and accomplishments is already a lengthy one despite his youth.
