November 2007
“This disc is a pan-European mixture from all times and places, of music in honour of the Virgin Mary...The choice of instruments is made to suit the country of origin and the period in which it was written. It works most effectively...A final verdict: a pleasant disc, nicely conceived and well worth searching out.”
