Matthew Best (conductor)


Matthew Best (born 6 February 1957) is an English bass singer and conductor, especially of vocal music. He founded the ensemble Corydon Singers. From 1985, he was also a guest conductor of the English Chamber Orchestra. His recordings focus on the vocal music by Anton Bruckner.

According to Hans Roelofs, Matthew Best is one of the better performers of Bruckner's religious music. His CDs with performances of Bruckner's Requiem,Mass No. 2 (1882 version), and Psalms 114 and 112 are as yet possibly the nec plus ultra. His CD devoted to Bruckner's motets and his performances of Masses Nos. 1 and 3, Aequali, Libera me (II),Te Deum and Psalm 150 are also among the better ones.
