'Highly recommended' (Organists' Review)

'Recording and presentation are exemplary' (Gramophone)

'This disc of inventive and moving music, performed with great affection, demonstrates very clearly what this English Orpheus Series is designed to show - that English music didn't simply die out, swamped by foreign imports, after the death of Purcell' (BBC Music Magazine Top 1000 CDs Guide)

'An easy first choice' (International Record Review)
