“Christ Church, Oxford, has produced another distinguished recording, with Stephen Darlington conducting a choir fully in sympathy with William Mathias's choral music. And what an attractive programme it is! There is a neat transition from the antiphon O Rex Gloriae to the little Canzonetta for organ, played by Simon Lawford with understanding and a fair degree of emotional restraint. To have placed that short organ piece at that precise point in the programme was one of those felicitous strokes of programme planning that prompts me to place this disc in a higher category than several other choral recordings I can think of, all of equal merit in other respects.” Gramophone Magazine “These are simply radiant performances. The boy trebles rather dominate yet the overall blend of the voices is impressive offering a pleasing tonal colouring and firm ensemble. The sound quality is ideal, communicating a fine balance between immediacy and intimacy. Nimbus has done a fine job” MusicWeb International, August 2012 | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
