Notes and Editorial Reviews
...Ceremony of Carols...and the Missa Brevis...here are dramatic as well as beautiful... [In] Rejoice of the Lamb...the biting climaxes are sung with passionate incisiveness, while James Bowman is in his element in the delightful passage which tells you that 'the mouse is a creature of great personal valour.' The Te Deum setting and Jubilate make an extra bonus and are no less well sung and recorded.
