"A disc to lose oneself in: melancholic, profoundly moving, Tomkins reflecting 'these distracted times' through which he lived. Beautifully focused choral voices, alluring 'verse' soloists and unpretentious organ playing are recorded spaciously enough to impart a warm, quintessentially English cathedral sound. Glorious." - BBC Music (George Pratt), June 2000
