"Marcon's 'Christmas Vespers' retains the liturgical structure of responsory, five psalms, hymn and Magnificat ... Indeed, for purely musical impact Marcon's differs from its rivals mainly by that rich, organ-boosted sound and the largish 24-strong choir ... It is worth recording that it does not have much of an actual Christmassy feel - only two pieces have texts specific to the occasion - but there is no doubt that its choice of music brings rich gifts".
