“Much of the music on this excellent recording was composed during Tomkins's final decade, before his death in 1656 in relative obscurity... At all times, the Oxford Camerata, led by Jeremy Summerly, sing with the clarity and purity of voice demanded by the music.” Tarik O' Regan, The Observer, 16th January 2000
