]]> “Benjamin Britten had a rare genius for setting words to music, becoming one of the most successful choral composers of the 20th Century … Voices and organ make a mystical union, spotlighting their sonorous incompatibilities … Rejoice: “Once again the composer extracts a first-rate performance” “Gloriana Dances: choral singing of such quality … balance of the recording … exceptionally life-like and satisfactory, and the sound as good as I have heard …no carol is more perfect in its simplicity than his Hymn to the Virgin … I also enjoy Britten’s church music from New College, Oxford, directed by David Lumsden. This includes the Hymn to St Cecilia.” (Gramophone)

“I have little but praise for the accomplished singing on this disc. Trinity College Choir consist not of boys’ voices at the top but of girls’ … Marlow articulates the music so coherently that he neatly side-steps any impression of aimlessness … . carefully graduated dynamics, close attention to the meaning and spirit of the text and disciplined singing result in readings which sparkle with life …Trinity College Choir are so secure in this respect and so comfortably on top of the task which Bach sets them that my previously longheld predilection for (more) instrumental support has taken a severe knock . These are serene but radiant performances which deserve an elevated place among their competitors … the accomplishment is beyond question. Recommended” (Gramophone)
