James Cook writes for voices, mainly a capella,in numbers ranging from four to forty-plus. This disc includes less complicated items, written very much in the Anglican choral tradition, and ideal for church and amateur choirs. All first recordings.

“On the evidence of this disc James Cook writes sincere, accomplished and assured music. He is obviously inspired by his chosen texts… Cook ably builds on and renews the traditions of the music that has been written for the English Church in the last few centuries and that in itself is a cause for celebration. It is hard to imagine that his music could have been better served than by the expert singers who constitute Voces Oxoniensis. They are directed by Michael McCarthy in flawless performances. Tuning, ensemble and diction are all excellent and the engineers have recorded them clearly. The documentation is good and includes full English texts. I had not encountered the music of James Cook before but I hope to hear more of it in the future. I hope that this enterprising release will bring his music to a wider audience and will encourage other choirs to take it up – though they'll have to be good! Strongly recommended” - John Quinn - MusicWeb
