Britten: Albert Herring is een meesterwerk van de Britse componist Benjamin Britten, uitgebracht op 1 januari 2003 door het label Chandos. Dit album biedt een complete opname van de opera Albert Herring, een van Britten's meest geliefde werken. Met een speelduur van ruim twee uur en zestien minuten, is dit een uitgebreid en boeiend hoorspel dat de luisteraar meeneemt in de wereld van de kleine stad Loxford en haar bewoners.
De opera, gecomponeerd in 1947, is gebaseerd op een verhaal van Georges Simenon en vertaald naar het Engels door Eric Crozier. Het verhaal draait om de onschuldige en bescheiden Albert Herring, die wordt uitgekozen als de "koning" van het jaarlijkse May Day-feest in Loxford. De opera is een mix van humor, ironie en diepte, met een score die Britten's typische stijl en meesterlijk gebruik van koor en orkest laat horen.
De uitvoering op dit album is van hoge kwaliteit, met een uitstekend ensemble van zangers en het City of London Sinfonia onder leiding van Richard Hickox. De opname vangt de subtiele nuances van Britten's muziek en de uitstekende prestaties van de zangers, waardoor het een waar genoegen is om naar te luisteren. Of je nu een fan bent van klassieke muziek, opera of Britten's werk, dit album is een must voor iedereen die de schoonheid en complexiteit van deze opera wil ervaren.
