Reviews

‘Delightful … a sense of delight is telegraphed across the centuries … the music amply rewards the enterprise of those who have revived it’ (Gramophone)

‘A real ear-opener; a must for all lovers of English church music, both for the quality of the music and the standard of performance … 70 minutes of magnificent music … Dr Trepte and his forces deserve our gratitude for unearthing such a musical treasure trove’ (Cambridgeshire Journal)
