"These are, all told, performances of real quality and intelligence, by a choir which has carved a highly distinctive niche for itself amid the Oxbridge scramble".

"[Graham Ross] has taken the Oxbridge model of purity and precision - solid performances of core repertoire - and spiced it with an intelligent, unexpected approach to programming ... Light on their feet and silvery-bright in tone, the choir romp through Bassano's Dic nobis Maria and Byrd's setting of the title text ... [And] Lhéritier's Surrexit pastor bonus offers a moment of contemplative respite - poised and beautifully shaped".
