Announcing the fifth batch in Hyperion's Vinyl Edition, due for release on May 15, 2026. With more than 20 releases now in the series, Hyperion's Vinyl Edition has become firmly established and now adds two major pillars of the repertoire alongside a recent frontline success story.

The three titles are released as limited-edition 180-gram LPs, presented in full-color gatefolds and including sleeve notes. For the first time in the series, these titles have been mastered by Sidney Claire Meyer at Emil Berliner Studios (EBS), the team behind DG's ‘Original Source' and Decca's ‘Pure Analogue' collections.

Following highly praised accounts of the Bach St John Passion and Christmas Oratorio, in 2018 much-lauded choral director Stephen Layton turned his Choir of Trinity College Cambridge to Bach's immortal B minor Mass, supported by the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment and soloists Helen Charlston, Katherine Watson, Iestyn Davies, Gwilym Bowen and Neal Davies.
