...For any listener who enjoys robust choral writing, good tunes, lively rhythms, and ethereal beauty, this disc can be enthusiastically recommended...This is an extraordinarily engaging disc, one to which I shall return many times.

Any of the works included here evoke a mood musically that easily could have come from the pen of Beethoven or Schubert...The performances are outstanding....Noteworthy is Getty’s arrangement of Welsh songs; the popular All Through The Night is given a particularly moving performance. Sound quality, as usual from Pentatone, is superb. Highly recommended, especially for lovers of choral music, or anyone that yearns for a bygone age.
