Musical education

Debut

McCreesh's directing début was at St John's, Smith Square in London{{Citation needed|reason=please give a reliable source for this assertion. Surely he conducted in Manchester and in local Gabrieli gigs long before SJSS?|date=November 2008}}, and a sensational Proms début led to an early signing with Deutsche Grammophon's Archiv label.

Recordings

The Gramophone Award winning album "Venetian Coronation" (released on Virgin Classics in 1990) represented a breakthrough for the Gabrieli Consort and Players. A new version of this musical reconstruction of the coronation of Marino Grimani was released in 2012 on Winged Lion. (Winged Lion is an independent label, which McCreesh established in 2011 as a subsidiary of Signum Records).[2][3]

Paul McCreesh has built a large discography for Deutsche Grammophon.
