I vow to thee, my country : choral music

"The Chapel Choir of the Royal Hospital Chelsea under their director William Vann give an ideal performance. The organist, Joshua Ryan makes a significant contribution on the splendid J.W. Walker instrument in Holy Trinity Church, Sloane Square. And let us not forget the tubular/bass bell player Richard Horne, in A Festival Chime and other items, who certainly adds to the celebrations. This significant release of Holst's music explores several byways which do not seem to be in the public purview".

"Another valuable and indeed unique collection of music from SOMM ... This is an excellent survey - very well performed ... The range of music and styles is interesting from simple and direct hymn settings to demanding multi-part anthems ... This disc does fill important and useful gaps in available knowledge of this important composer. I like very much the performing style of William Vann and his Royal Hospital Choir. They are a very accomplished group but at the same time the sound they make has the authentic ring of an Anglican church choir. A rewarding and valuable disc".
