It seems there's been a bit of confusion regarding the entity known as "Gabrieli". The releases you've listed, notably works by Elgar and Purcell, are actually indicative of performances and recordings often associated with the Gabrieli Consort & Players, led by renowned conductor Paul McCreesh. This group, founded in 1982, has distinguished itself in the realms of Renaissance and Baroque music, employing historical performance practices to bring ancient works to life for modern audiences. The Gabrieli Consort & Players have garnered international acclaim for their vivid, expressive renditions of both well-known and obscure compositions of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries.

Under Paul McCreesh's leadership, the ensemble has embarked on ambitious projects that range from intimate chamber music to grand choral works, including notable performances of Elgar's "The Dream of Gerontius" and Purcell's "The Fairy Queen" among others. Their discography reflects a commitment to excellence and innovation, often delving into historically informed performances that offer fresh perspectives on early music. The Gabrieli's dedication to educational outreach and mentorship programs, such as the Gabrieli Young Singers Scheme, further underscores their role in nurturing the next generation of musicians and expanding the audience for classical music. Through their recordings and performances, the Gabrieli Consort & Players continue to enhance the appreciation of Renaissance and Baroque music around the world.
