"Vurdering: Recording of the month" - "The musical vision of the whole programme is wonderfully realised and stunningly performed ... You have a winner. It's a Christmas disc with a difference, but it's also a triumphant success".

"This is by no means a conventional Christmas disc. Indeed, tinsel and holly are nowhere in sight. It is, in the best sense, a challenging - and hugely rewarding - programme which has been put together thoughtfully and with discernment. The performances are absolutely first rate ... I don't believe that enjoyment of this disc need be confined solely to the Christmas period".

"Der er intet glitterstads eller klokkeklang over Incarnation, historien om ordet der blev til kød, stærkt formidlet af engelsk julemusik i kontant pendulfart mellem middelalderen og vor tid. Kammerkoret er et af Englands bedste ... Det er sandt for dyden tryllebindende korsang".

"Vurdering: Recording of the month" - "A Christmas issue which is genuinely challenging and different ... Martin's music evokes in an extraordinary suggestive manner the theological paradox buried within the Eden story ... The Gabrieli's rapt and intense performance is remarkable in it poise and tonal control at mainly low dynamic levels ... A wonderful Christmas offering: treat yourself and friends or both, to it".

"Francis Pott's luminescently beautiful Bululalow ... in particular emphasises how much the way we celebrate Christmas has not changed over the course of hundreds of years: it is arguably the most moving setting of these words written since Britten's version in A Ceremony of Carols, and I wish it appeared on disc and was performed more often".
