"2018 sees the 50th anniversary of the King's Singers, and they are celebrating in style with this luxurious collection of numbers that show them at their best ... Some of the tracks are newly composed or arranged for this anniversary release, and others are a revisiting of things from before. They were certainly all recorded specially for this disc ... its line-up has been renewed dozens of times. They have given countless hours of pleasure to music lovers all over the world in the last five decades, and this disc is a distillation, by their current incarnation, of what makes them special. Here's to the next fifty years".

"Editor's choice: What hits you first and leaves you last when listening to this project is the astonishing, exhilarating musicianship of these singers. You may or may not enjoy the group's signature sound, with its diffuse bass warmth and blowsy top line ... but there's no arguing with tuning that electrifies even the simplest of chords, or with a vocal blend that turns cluster chords into gauzy clouds of colour ... Looking back over 50 years of performances and recordings by The King's Singers it's hard to think of a group whose music-making has aged so well. The joy, the generosity and the eclecticism of their earliest recordings are all still the defining qualities in their latest ... Here's to 50 more years".
