CD Reviews

A good sampling of English music

05/03/2000

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Although the selected English literature is an excellent sampling of the English choral tradition, it does not do the literature justice; the reason for it being so may be, in part, due to the recording methods that were employed for this particular album, or it may be simply the quality of the performance. Nevertheless, the choral performance on this album is satisfactory, but it is a very unbalanced group, tending to be heavy on the higher side of the ensemble. The lower parts are often drowned out by the overwhelming treble sound. Aside from these things, the recording is one that any person seeking to sample choral literature should consider."
