“A first recording of MacMillan's Durham Mass is the centrepiece. With liberal use of cluster chords and chant-like ornamentations, it's a gripping composition.” BBC Music Magazine, April 2013 **** “The Durham girl choristers produce a raw, brittle sound...Nevertheless, this is the kind of sound which ideally suits MacMillan's 2010 Missa Dunelmi...Some of the upper passagework lacks precision and the balance is distinctly top heavy, but overall this is a committed and effective account of a highly original piece of church music. Francesca Massey proves to be a hugely gifted accompanist, using the Durham organ's vast resources with intelligence and fervour.” Gramophone Magazine, February 2013 | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |
