"Volume 2 in this ‘Twentieth-Century Masters’ series is an all-British programme, spearheaded by two James MacMillan pieces ... both eliciting lean, clear-toned performances from Higginbottom’s choir. ... The choir’s performances in this second volume are of uniformly high quality" - BBC Music Magazine

"This is one of the finest choral discs to have come my way for some time. I rejoice to find clear evidence that so much high quality music is being written for liturgical use by composers of today." - International Record Review

 

"This disc captures the choir of 2004, who sail through the programme with bright clarity. Pride of place goes to Johnathan Dove: his Ecce beatam lucem is a real charmer." - The Times

 

"New College Choir... brings the ideal combination of vocal freshness and consummate experience to this music, with commendable individual standout solos exemplifying the standard of the ensemble as a whole. The recording has admirable atmosphere and transparency." - The Daily Telegraph
