"It isn't very often that it's possible to listen to a CD right through but this is one such disc. There is such variety from track to track that interest is maintained - from mass movements to instrumental dances to keyboard works to songs to motets ... I really like the Taverner Choir's performance of this mass. The Tallis Scholars are, as you might expect, smooth and suave".

"Vurdering: BBC music choral song choice" - "The Taverner Choir & Players bring us a benchmark performance of the Western Wind Mass ... The striking originality of the Taverner Choir's interpretation and programming puts this disc in a league of its own ... The choral sections, while exquisite in their ensemble, are also marked by a warmth of individual tones absent from rival recordings".

"O'Donnell favours brisk tempos throughout, much to the benefit of the Western Wynde Mass. It's a robust, rhythmic, grounded performance, and is presented with pithy liner notes".

"Vurdering: Editor's choice" - "The Western Wynde Mass nicely contrasts with The Tallis Scholars' recording, being incisive and brisk where Peter Phillips's reading is smoother and more leisurely. Parrott is perhaps more persuasive in conveying its pacing ... The sound recording successively juggles a wide range of distributions, from harpsichord to choir, with no apparent discontinuity".

"Vurdering: Early Music of the year" - "This is a recording that speaks beyond the specialist Early Music echo-chamber, offering a vivid and fascinating musical destillation of one of England's richest cultural eras".

"These are very sound, lucid performances in every sense ... heard with surprising clarity given the acoustic ... of St. Alban's, Holborn. There's not a weak link in the distribution ... In comparison with the Taverner Consort, James O'Donnell's reading of Western Wynde is rather softer-centred, but ... a work as resourcefully inventive as this both sustains and deserves such contrasting approaches".
