Our Chamber Choir CD continues to wow audiences worldwide and we are delighted that so many copies have been sold. To order a copy or to listen to some excerpts of tracks, please click through to our music pages. In the meantime, this is what Marc Rochester from International Record Review, one of the most influential magazines in the music industry, had to say.
"....Youthful enthusiasm and commitment count for a lot and both are in plentiful supply here. Similarly, clear and perceptive direction can produce marvels from the most rough-hewn materials, and while I would not for a moment suggest that any of these 22 young voices is anything other than polished and carefully nurtured, neither do I suspect that their results would be quite so impressive were it not for the exceptionally fine work.."
"... These are very impressive performances, evoking the spirit and idiom of the music superbly, and much helped by Herald's atmospheric recording from the lovely chapel at Cheltenham College. Ffinch shapes the music and controls the singers with unerring sensitivity, producing some matchless cadences (I particularly admire the closing of Tallis‚s O sacrum convivium), while the singers themselves are capable of producing a sound of great depth and substance (as with the magnificent full-toned choral passages in Sheppard's Reges Tharsis et insulae)..."
"This is a very creditable achievement indeed, and one which can hold its own against all but the most powerful competition. While it may not be (yet) one of England's most accomplished or polished choirs, it has something which few other choirs possess,a collective vigour and enthusiasm which turns the potential disaster-area of the Œdispersit superbos‚ passage from Praetorius‚s Magnificat into a thrilling outpouring
of youthful energy."
