Reviews

‘Intensely spiritual, but also readily accessible in its gentle simplicity to the average listener … a strange work, filling the uncertain ground between liturgy and drama. But a perfect choice for anyone wishing to penetrate deeply into the meaning of the most austere season of the Christian year’ (Gramophone)

‘This is given such a compelling performance on this recording that there are times when it touches sublimity’ (Choir & Organ)

‘A piece that will, I am sure, find fans and advocates. It is honestly expressive and extremely well performed, and for those who share Moody's religious beliefs it may very well be a moving experience’ (Fanfare, USA)
