"Die Stimmen der Sixteen sind beweglich, hüpfen und sind doch einander verbunden".

"In places the echoey acoustic slightly overwhelms the texture and the consonants of the words ... but as the Sixteen get into this series they are warming up to the task".

"This programme, on this superb release ... takes, like the previous two volumes, a single theme and a single Mass as its starting point ... It is in the Song of Songs we find The Sixteen and Chirstophers at their most subtly beguiling ... [Missa Regina coeli] is another very fine performance, singers and conductor responding to the great variety inherent in both text and music with a kind of relaxed energy".

"In this style of interpreting Palestrina, The Sixteen are sensitive and remarkably assured ... The Sixteen's Palestrina cycle may just be a classic in the making".
