No need to send Friar Alessandro to Bethlehem with a camera crew when the perfect image is in the Bridgeman archive.
Friar Alessandro, the first religious brother to land a major record contract, is nominated for his debut, Voice of Assisi, a collection of sacred music, produced by Mike Hedges, who previously collaborated with Manic Street Preachers.
Bridgeman are delighted to have been able to license Angel of the Lord Visiting the Shepherds, Sanctuary of the Shepherd's Chapel from a fresco in Bethlehem by Umberto Noni, (fl.1830-40) for the CD album cover.
