About a month ago, there was some discussion about a Naxos CD of Hummel's Missa Solemnis in C. I wrote: >The choir on the CD is called TOWER Voices New Zealand, as it TOWER is >an acronym. I couldn't see anything in the notes to explain this, but >I doubt that it's named for the store chain. I've received this e-mail which I thought might interest other purchasers of the CD: Hi there, Richard - I was hunting the web for reviews of the Hummel CD of sacred choral music from Naxos and came across your response to someone's question about release dates for the CD. I notice that people are a little unsure how the choir got it's name, and being a singer in TOWER Voices New Zealand, thought I'd fill you in - our sponsor is the Tower Insurance Company. You can check out more details at http://www.youthchoir.org.nz/about_voices.htm . Enjoy the CD! Kind regards, David Squire Richard Pennycuick
