“The mixed-gender group of 21 singers recorded here is blessed with a fresh, clear, unaffected tone, blending effortlessly...These young French singers cope admirably with Leighton's English text...and manage to bring out all the dramatic nuances of the Britten, particularly in the striking Agnus Dei.”

“this mixed boy-girl French choir makes a vigorous, refreshing sound on its debut CD. The voices are full of enthusiastic stresses in the Britten, digging out his staccato Benedictus with robotic enthusiasm...Tuning is excellent throughout, soloists have characterful voices...[and] British organist William Whitehead never outplays the voices.”
